Spock! Progress Report!!

Morning, everyone!

I thought it was time for a bit of a “heads up” on what has been going on with the Ghost Zero front.

My first print book, “Ghosts with Guns” is all but complete.  We’re waiting on some great pin-ups from a couple of artists, and then it’s off to the Ka-Blam for printing.  I’ll be selling it from Ka-Blam’s IndyPlanet site, of course, but I’ll also be offering to sell them directly from me….and if you buy from me, you get not only an autographed copy, but also the first chapter of the Ghost Zero Novel, “Curse of the Murder Machine!”…..and maybe some other fun extras.)  The book should be out the first part of February, and I’ll have an official announcement about it here!

Also, I’ve gotten news that the GZ Bust sculpted by Eric Nocella Diaz has been reviewed in issue #40 of Amazing Figure Modeler Magazine!  I’ve ordered my copy, but I haven’t read the review yet…..let’s hope it’s good!)  I plan to have a table at Wonderfest in Louisville, Kentucky where I will sell the statues, the GwG book and maybe more goodies.)  We’re also offering up a limited number of PRE-PAINTED GZ busts for $150…I saw a picture of the first of them this morning.  They are being painted by my childhood friend, the intensely talented Doug McCord, who painted the very first bust that is sitting in a place of honor on the shelves overlooking my studio space.  Here is a picture of what Doug can do….

GZ bust, front

The plotting for the next GZ story arc “Escape from the Vigilante Crypt” is nearly complete, so scripting for the first book is ready to begin.  There is a great-looking piece of Splash art in the GwG book that is about this story….and it will knock your socks off!  Well…it did mine, anyway, and it’s cold!  Brrr!

So, even though it may be cold as death right now, be assured that the dead are busy working on GHOST ZERO!

    Looking forward to this a lot, Dave!

    By the way: any idea how much the GwG’s gonna be?

    Don,
    I’ve been looking at a couple of different places, and I should know a firm price by Monday of next week. I don’t want to put out a firm price as of yet, but it will most likely be in the $3.00-$3.99 price range.
    I’ll give the firm number in the press release.

    Glad you mentioned the bust in Amazing Figure Modeler. That article is what led me first to Ghost0Zero. Plus I live here in the Louisville area and haven’t missed a Wonderfest in eight years. So I was way happy to hear you’ll be there this year with lots of great ghost swag. I better start working on fattening my wallet now!
