Hi Everyone!
Wow my first post. Well it has been a long road to this point for Rachel and myself, but I’m happy to say we are finally at a point where we are producing, and providing to you, Immortal Game. A comic that we are both very happy with, and we hope all our readers will be as happy with our work as we are.
How did it all begin? I started writing what became Immortal Game in 2008 on my breaks at my first full time job out of university. There are countless influences on Immortal Game but at the time I started I was reading Justina Robson’s Keeping It Real, so it probably deserves a special mention. Also worth a mention is my old boss (I’m unsure if he wants to be named?) at the time who encouraged me to start putting fingers to keyboard. Above all is my wonderful partner Tendai who has supported me through many projects that have brought me back to Immortal Game. None of this would have been possible without her.
It was about this time I met Rachel through Deviantart. I worked with a number of artists during that period, but I was always impressed with Rachel’s work, and kept sending more jobs her way. To my delight she always accepted my jobs until she offered to run Immortal Game with me. I’m sure you will hear more from Rachel in future, but for now just marvel at her amazing pages.
Now that it’s started, how is it going to continue? Well, the plan is to update every Monday and Friday and that’s what we are going to start to do. We have some pages up currently, and we were so happy with them Rachel and I wanted to start letting people know about our work as soon as possible, so we’ve started the facebook page https://www.facebook.com/ImmortalGameComic and we’ve jumped on twitter https://twitter.com/RevillionIG and we also have a forum I’m meaning to clean up. Rachel and I both have competing demands on our time though, so to have a smoothly flowing webcomic that updates regularly we need a backlog of pages. This means we will put the brakes on our updating twice a week for a little bit in the near future to allow pages to build up. Once we are happy with the size of the backlog we will continue our twice week Monday Friday updates.
How can you support Immortal Game? With the comic still in its infancy, the only thing we really need right now is readers. Bookmark us. Check back for updates. Tell your friends about us if you think we are worth sharing. You can now vote for us on http://topwebcomics.com/, you’ll find the button below the comic on the Immortal Game site. If you have media contacts and want to do an article on a new webcomic we would be over moon with that, get in touch with me if that’s the case. Down the track we will accept donations, we want to release an on running series of wallpapers for readers to purchase, a selection of merchandise and a whole new small comic. But right now just enjoy the comic, and if you feel others might enjoy it please let them know we exist!
It is an exciting start, and Rachel and I are looking forward to sharing it with you all!
Kade
Congratulations!
