Ripped "#2"19328

CBCS Pressing SteveRicketts private msg quote post Address this user
I am still working hard on Ripped "#2" and wanted to give an update.

Issue 1 was 31 full pages of story. I have a point at which issue 2 will end on and was trying to trim out story beats to get the page count to about 18-20 pages so i could get "#2" out faster, but it just can't be done without sacrificing the story. I'm not going to do that. Right now I'm pacing it at 28 pages. Fewer than #1, but still a lot of action-packed pages.

This weekend, im going to prep the first 5 pages to go to the colorist so he can get started. Once they come back, I'll let you guys have a preview because they perfectly set up issue "#2."

I also have the two variant covers finished and colored. I'll let you guys see one of those a little closer to the launch of the Kickstarter. Until then, here's a piece of it...

Here is a sneak peek at the Cover A version of RIPPED #2.
I am trying to get it ready in time to launch the Kickstarter in mid to late May.

Until then...

And now...it's time for the preview I promised. (In black and white)

Presenting, the first FIVE PAGES of Ripped #2!
Spoiler warning! I highly recommend reading Ripped #1 before diving into this!

You were warned!

Oh, this may need a "Trigger Warning" as well! 😂

@figment Did you see just one cover or two? I can't remember.

I believe the preview art above was all of the interior you saw. Anything else is new territory for you. 😂

@SteveRicketts I remember seeing the interior art for page one and commenting on Tommy's mom, and roughs for the standard cover and heretofore unnamed alternate cover... of which I may have to get a metal copy if another certain forum member doesn't buy them all.

And I have to admit my imagination has gone a thousand different directions trying to imagine Tommy and Gary explaining to the authorities how a certain street thug ended up in low Earth orbit.

@figment Oh, man. That seems like ages ago. I can't wait for everyone to see the goods. The cover you saw as a sketch might be my new favorite.
