Mr. 47's Toon A Day Challenge!
I have been given the ultimate challenge: to balance senior year insanity with a toon a day challenge. Aside from juggling thesis, regular assignments, and any other projects I may have slated for the year, I am now morally obligated to create one cartoon a day.
But why would you do something this insane?
One, I am in fact insane. Two, I lost my hard drive this summer and as a result Pandora is seriously behind schedule and thus I want to use this as a means to catch up. So starting now, I will be posting 5 episodes of Pandora per week rather than its usual weekly/bi-weekly publishing schedule for the next 16 weeks. So for all you Hellspawn Underground fans (and those who will be after reading this, nudge nudge) get ready to read a shit ton of gut busting social satire. As long as humans continue to be as stupid as they are I will never run out of material.
For those who don't already have the link, you can read Pandora here: http://www.webcomicsnation.com/draven/pandorasoapbox/series.php
The new episode is up!

Jump Will Live On
Well voting closed recently on the 'Create a Superhero' invite for The Stan Lee Foundation and while the winners are waiting to be announced, my piece didn't make it into the top twenty, which is a prerequisite for the winning qualifications.
But all is not at a loss.
There is still the fact that I am piecing together a portfolio for Todd McFarlane himself, the man behind Image Comics. Aside from that, I have my own empire to build and operate. So in light of the aftermath of this endeavor, I have decided to develop my character Jump further. Certainly with wrapping up one degree, prepping for another, running a web series, taking steps to finally publish my first graphic novel, and with another one in queue when it's done, adding another series to the pile seems crazy, but then again I never said I wasn't.
I put a lot of effort into developing that character for The Stan Lee Foundation and it seems like such a waste to let it fall by the wayside despite the results of the creative invite. This decision is also a new direction for Action Adventure Comics, as I have an unofficial "no superheroes" policy and try to stick with alternative comics and graphic novels. One of my professors always tells me that doing the things you don't necessarily "want" to do can only strengthen the things you do want to do, so what the hell.
I have no solid dates as to when Jump will first hit the web, or the presses depending on what direction I want to take. I really want to work my way through the queue of scripts I have already piled on my desk before I start adding more, but I do ensure you that I will develop a story line for this character and make sure I get good use out of the effort I put into developing him. I want to work on finalizing not only his look, but some of his other information as well as take some time to ponder a script before I finalize my commitment to this project. Rest assured that there will eventually be a Jump storyline, regardless how I choose to deliver it.
I will make another announcement when it comes time to begin plotting the storyboards and begin production. Stay tuned.

Pandora's Soap Box
I just launched my new web series Pandora's Soap Box, a web series comprised of one-shots and short strips. The content of this series is mostly satire and social commentary about things that irk me. These are the weird random ideas I get that have no place in any other comics project I have going on.
This is a project I intend to update either weekly or bi-weekly depending on my workload between college and trying to get my graphic novel finished. I just felt like I needed something to do when I get tired and need a break from the other projects, and I thought it would be nice to actually give people something to read while they wait for the book to be finished.
This first installment is one I just did tonight, I thought it would be appropriate to start the series off with, because I found it extremely amusing as I was working on it.

Action Adventure News Feed Moved Here
In order to prevent a large news feed accumulating on the AAC website, I am moving the news page to this blog. Once I can figure out how to feed the news into a page on the site without having to make a ridiculously large page file, I will be doing so.
For now, please use this blog as a source for all your Action Adventure Comics news! We're also on Facebook and Twitter, see the links to the right of this page. Also, don't forget to check out Hellspawn Underground Productions for links to all the other wonderful projects that are endorsed by HUP!
Stay Evil,
