Special Annoucement: Slight Change to the Graphic Novel’s Launch Date

Not to worry folks; the change is a good one. Because one page at the beginning of the book had to be extended to two pages, the Chadhiyana graphic novel web-comic, Chadhiyana: In the Company of Shadows, will begin posting on Tuesday, October 1st. That means an earlier release date and an extra page next week. Everything else will remain as it was outlined in yesterday’s post. So make sure you visit chadhiyana.com on Tuesday for the first posting (the cover of the book) and help celebrate the start of a new chapter in Chadhiyana’s story (both literally and figuratively).

The Graphic Novel Approaches

The web-comic debut of the Chadhiyana graphic novel, Chadhiyana: In the Company of Shadows, is nearly upon us. I know that last week I wrote that I was uncertain about when the web-comic would finally start posting, but I wasn’t yet certain everything would be ready for the date I’d had in mind. I was, however, quite specific that I wanted pages to begin posting before or around the New York Comic Con (October 10-13), where I will be exhibiting this year at booth # 943 (with NovaStar Studios, publisher of Sara Rising). That said, NYCC fast approaches and the graphic novel’s web-comic launch date may be sooner than you think. Read more… ›

A New Website

I know it’s been three weeks since there’s been a Chadhiyana update (on account of the Baltimore Comic-Con two weeks ago), but I only have a very brief update for you this week. Progress on the graphic novel has been slow and steady (what else is new?), but there’s still a lot more work to get done before the web-comic version of the graphic novel can officially begin publication. In the meanwhile, however, I thought I’d introduce you to the web-comic’s future home. Read more… ›

Baltimore Comic-Con 2013 – Thank You

As I always do after a convention, I want to take the time to thank everyone who stopped by my table and showed their support, especially those who picked up a copy of Chadhiyana; I hope you enjoy it. Though I wanted to do something a little different this time. I had taken some time over the weekend to walk around the convention a bit and meet other industry professionals (as I often do). This time around, I have to say, I think it was the best experience I’ve ever had with it and, as such, I have a few additional people to thank. Read more… ›

J. M. DeSantis at the 2013 Baltimore Comic-Con this Weekend

Baltimore Comic Con 2013For the second year in a row, I’ll be exhibiting at the Baltimore Comic-Con (in Artist Alley; table # A-129). Be sure to drop by for a copy of the first Chadhiyana comic (which had just been sent out to the printer last year), get some up-to-date information on the currently in-progress Chadhiyana graphic novel (Chadhiyana: In the Company of Shadows), a convention sketch, other merchandise, or just to say hello. I really enjoyed last year’s show, and I’m looking forward to an even better show this year. I hope to see a lot of you attend. Cheers!
