REPRINT FUZZYFACE on KICKSTARTER.COM

Hey all,
I am about to launch my campaign on kickstarter.com tomorrow to fund the reprinting of the the original graphic novel from Anti-Hero Brand Press, Fuzzyface: The Agnew Chainsaw Massacre 3.
Our funding goal is $3,500 in 30 days. This will give us the necessary funds to print 1,000 copies of the book with added features, print up postcards and buttons. If we exceed our goal, then we'll shoot for hardcover copies of the book, con appearances and other sweet promotional items.
Without you spreading the word about the gospel that is Fuzzyface, we may not make our goal. What I hope, is that even if you cannot fund the project, that you will facebook your friends. Write to local newspapers, and tweet about the project including links to the kickstarter page so people can get in on the action. Kickstarter is a great source not just for funding worthy projects, but promotion and networking. So please, feel free to use the images I am including here and in the press release I will also submit to my blog, a little bit later. Hell, copy and paste that fucker wherever you can.
Everyone who has read Fuzzyface has loved it. Venus of Necro did a fabulous job writing this epic tale of one deranged, puppetcidal little fuzzball with a chainsaw. But, Fuzzyface is a love story at heart. And I know the more people we get into this, the more will love the jokes, the comedy and tribute to Jim Henson and Tobe Hooper. Fuzzyface in a few words is, "Texas Chain Saw Massacre meets The Muppets." It's never been done before. It's the greatest combo since peanut butter and jelly, peanut butter and chocolate, bacon and eggs, bacon and bacon. It's that damn good. And I am damn proud that I have worked on a project this fun and successful.
LET'S DO THIS!

Let the Right One In; A Hardcore Review

Billed as one of the most original vampire movies ever made, this Swedish flick about a preteen boy with a penchant for being picked on, makes friends with the new girl in his apartment building. The opening sequence was really fucking interesting. Filmed in almost a real choppy way that made this a ultra realistically gritty and fucked up movie.
Isolated and mistreated, 12 year old Oskar takes frequent mini sabbaticals to the courtyard of his apartment complex, where he works on his Rubix Cube and encounters a strange and weird smelling girl. She warns him immediately that she cannot be friends with him and demands to be left alone. So obviously Oskar becomes enamored with this stranger.
The box said it right. This was the most original and more authentic take on modern vampire horror that I have ever seen. Now keep in mind I still have to drunkenly stagger my way through the abortion called the Twilight series to bring you a hardcore review on what may actually be the most realistic take on vampire teen erotica written by a Mormon. But then again don't we all need to reach inward and find our inner preteen girl or uber gay boy side?
Let the Right One In was filmed in such a way that you got more of a feel for the main character, Oskar and his life and less for some completely distorted coven of vampires all living in some massive cave-like tomb. This flick also FINALLY dispels the whole idea of vampires being purely sexual beings. I mean think about it, Kirsten Dunst played a ten year old vampire in Interview With A Vampire from Ann Rice fame back in the 1990's. Even though, by the middle of the movie, she was over a hundred, how sexual can a preteen girl be? And let's try to keep your pedophile minds somewhere other than my blog. And the sheer madness in the attack sequences were done with some really cool CGI effects that flowed seamlessly to me. And remember, I got an Animation degree and have been watching live action/ CGI films since their inception in the late nineties. Plus, the final attack sequence which showed very little in terms of gore and more off screen kills, but plenty of bloody body parts.
Although there is little of a sexual nature to this movie, in terms of bullshit erotica, Let the Right One In holds the mounting tumultuous relationship that buds between Oskar and Eli. And unlike most vampire films, there's no tribe of vampires. No collective. No hunter killer war with werewolves. AND Let the Right One In, even though leaving the door open for a sequel (AND THE IN pre-PRODUCTION AMERICAN VERSION) it comes full circle and has a definitive ending to it.
*Disclaimer!... I am not looking forward to the American remake of this perfectly fine horror movie. Why do American movie producers seek only to remake amazing foreign horror movies instead of coming up with as original ideas as possible. Instead they churn out fucked up remakes of quality Asian horror starring worthless actresses like Sarah Michelle Gellar-Prinze

Fuzzyface production notes pt. 7

So last Friday I finished (finally) the layouts for Fuzzyface. The book is set to be 53 pages long. I know fucking crazy not only is it an odd number, but it's also a prime number. And don't ask me how I remember that either. But it's going to be 53 pages, all in one graphic novel. And Saturday night I got back to work on the interior artwork for the book. I finished page 18 and then last night I got most of 19 done too. So I am technically 1/3 finished with the interiors. And this book is looking sweet. We're into the meat of the story. Nobody has died, yet. But we are coming close. And it's gonna get messy.
I am having a ball drawing this, and I am super glad I went back and finished the layouts, cause I make a lot more progress, and waste a lot less time when I am doing the finished artwork if I have already done some draftsmanship on the pages where editing and visuals are concerned. I know the readers are going to be very happy with this project. Both visually and story wise. Cause Venus did a fabulous job crafting this tale.
I plan for the book to be in print by the first quarter of 2010. I am looking for some of my artist friends to do some pinups for the book. I would also like to get a write up about it, which would mean I would have to do a prerelease for press and other pros, so I can use their quotes for promos.
Simon Bisley offered to do a pinup of Agnew for me. Maybe I can talk him into doing one so I can use it with the book. I'll get on that today.
So, progress and art are back on track. The book is still looking fabulous and I am still rolling along at a good pace. Fuzzyface means business.
