Ok, I was in this kithcen, with like 3 or 4 people, they kinda looked like my friends but weren't. We were all quoteing different phrases from movies and tv. I say one from the Simpsons. A girl asks "..what's 'The Simpsons'..?". We all chuckle, and I magically summon a remote on my hand, and turn on a tv.

We see a weird episode of the Simpsons, were all of the sudden, the police station exploded, with ribs coming out all over the place, and Chief Wiggum lying on the ribs. Someone offers to helo him up, but he refueses, because he feels too comfortable. Then he proceseds to eat the ribs close to him. The the other 2 cops that are always with him start screaming "Oh NO! The ants are coming!". Colonies of ants are getting on the ribs, suddenly it was being bathed in bbq sauce. Then there was this one ant that was on a rock, and the "camera" made an extreme closeup of it's face, and it stared menacingly at the camera. Suddenly, we're at Moe's bar, were a small group of people ran inside to hide, and Moe gave them guns and they hid under a trap door. The people in the bar were actually criminals hiding from a detective. The detectie comes in, and then thimgs get..interesting

Suddenly, it's not a Simpsons episode, and we're all live action, and I'm the bartender, and I look like Snake Plisskin, eyepatch and all The detective comes to me, and tries to intimidate me to tell on the people who were running away. I dismiss him, and he stays in the bar to "chiil out". Suddenly, this girl that looked like a cross, I swear, like a cross between Cameron Diaz ("TheMask" version) and Scarlett Johansen. She flirts around with me and I give her a drink. Later the detectve is talking with her, I hear him say "that bartender actually scares me....". Then Scarlett Cameron (as I affectionately call her lol) is being teased by her friends for flirting with me. Then, it gets odd

The girls stands, and music floods the bar, and suddenly she starts dancing and everybody in the bar as well, like a Brittany Spears video or something, and she starts singing I don't remember the entire song, but I remember the opening: "People say I'm easy, but they're wrong. I'm just fun. And sometimes I just need a taste test!" And begins the chorus: "I just need a taste test, taste test. I just need a taste test, taste test!". The "video" continues with dances that would make the current Shakira blush and pray, I don't remember the rest of the song, but I remember how it ended! It suddenly winds down with like a symphony, and at the very end in a sprano like voice, the ending of the song: "..you ass looks like it belongs in a museummmm!".

And with that, I actually woke up Must be something in the water in Connecticut (btw, for those who didn't know, I'm visiting some friends here in Connecticut, but will be back by Thanksgiving, been here for like a week and a half now). So, with that new pop song sensation "Taste Test", I bid thee a farewell for now Lol, "your ass looks like it belongs in a museummm!"...I still don't know if that's a compliment or an insult! In any event, God bless, luv you all!

I've been knocke dout almost cold by a sinus headache all week long

Oh, and Puerto Rico plays Argentina to decide to see who goes for the gold tomorrow in Basketball. I enjoyed bery much seeing Brasil lose their temper, and Canada surprising Dominican Republic (nothing personal, just thought many of the players on the Dominican teams were kinda show-offs...).

Finished reading Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone for the first time (wonder why in the US the changed it from "Philosopher's Stone").

Luv you all, catch you next time!

I was remembering how I heard this comparison not too long ago...about people and eagles. How troubles are kind of like the process eagles go through when the get new feathers. How the stay down a few days in a painful process when they have to PULL OFF their own feathers to let the newer ones come out.

Then they grow new, beautiful, better feathers...how problens can be our own process of growing up, and later, becoming a better person from those experiences...

I've been feeling these past few days, like I'm starting to be more like myself in a way, before an emotional breakdown I never completely got over years ago. And that new...surge of inspiration has been noticable of late in many aspects.

In any event, I will try to continue to grow and what not. My webcomic is really starting to raise eyebrows lately with the art and story of this new arch, which is already in terms of views and critical acclaim, really destroying the first arch lol I wouldn't have it any other way Efra (Snarebang) is doing marvelous stuff with Mr Whatever, and Rigo is gearing up a new season of NovusGenesis Hype.

Oh, and I sent the files of chapter 2 of book 1 to Ka-Blam! and hopefully soon issue #2 will FINALLY be available

Anywho, I'm out for now, take care, my little ones, God bless, I you all

Please look foward to it =3

For the past year, readers and friends have been joking around about Warlord being cursed because of the whole internet troubles I have had at home. Now, that Free Comic Book Day is going to finally debut the printed version, after making sensible orders at a good time so it could arrive all nice and in time.....the first wave of copies was to be the prologues, which, I was going to give away for free. The second wave was to be issue #1 to be sold at a special price....

Well, the prologues were supposed to arrive last week at the latest...and today I recieve a message from the great people of Ka-Blam! (the guys who print the comic), stating that they were confused because they had sent the prologues out in time....but they recieved it BACK at their offices stating that it had a note saying that it was the "wrong address"....

As a result, issue #1 might be shipped LATE depending on when they read my reply to them (which was actually very responsible of them, since they didn't know for sure then, if it was indeed a wrong address). So, even though at no extra cost the prologues will be re-sent along with issue #1 now....but, I have NO IDEA if they'll now make it BEFORE FCBD.....see, I can't help but just...laugh

I'll keep you guys posted on the situation....FREE WARLORD, LET MY COMICS FREE!

Right now, in both a personal and profesional manner, I find myself at a crosroads, almost like all those years before, before I knew many (if not all) of you guys.... and I find myself...confused in some ways...

Like many of you know, I've always been..shying away from any kind of spotlight and such...I dunno, I wasn't ready for something like that years ago, and I don't think I ever will be. About a week ago, I was here at the mall, reading the comments on my webcomic, when from behind me, I hear somebody go "Oh, WOW! Whoa!" I look, and there's this like, 16 year old kid standing behind me. "What manga are you reading? I've never seen it before, it looks cool, what manga is that!?"...and it's my webcomic....I just go "...what..?', the kid looks at me bewildered, and says "uhhh, japanese art, what you're reading..."...and I explain to him how it's actually my webcomic And I showed him mor estuff I had on my pendrive, and he's there, impressed. And I know, he knew about manga and anime, because he proceeded to tell me about his Mazinger collection and his Naruto stuff, and he was even wearing a Street Fighter 4 t-shirt But the clincher was, when I showed him the cover to the printed version of Warlord, he tells me "man, you should sell that stuff at Borders!"....here in PR, Borders is pretty much THE gathering place for manga/anime fans...so I KNEW he was a TRUE otaku when he said that! LOL!

That meant... a world to me in many ways..because it's not apparent now, but nearly 3 years after Warlord debuted as a webcomic, and nearly 6 years after first he was introduced in Paquines.com and the old PR Comix forums, but, there ALWAYS was a huge contreversy about the artwork. The art has always had VERY mixed reviews. And even more from my closer friends, who had seen my artwork before a certain...mental break-down I had nearly 10 years ago, and questioned "why change your style so drastically!?" I am one of the few that can truely say, that before the whole manga/anime craze, and before the whole Humberto Ramos, Joe Mad and what not, was alreday starting to incorporate manga style art combined with american art, but it was always more americanized. But, as I went recovering after nearly 2 years of not drawing anything at all, I went more true to the Japanese roots, and many called me crazy for changing so drastically like that, especially since in PR the REAL comics are 90s Image comics style....my reply? Not even Image does 90s style Image comics anymore!

So, after developing a VERY tough skin early on from all the criticisms for the artwork (thank goodness, the story actually has always had very strong, positive reviews from pretty much everyone), I just kept my mouth shut, and what can be called bull-headed determination, that I was going to make this work with THIS style I currently have, of course, always trying to experiment and grow and listen to the criticisms that actually did help out in many areas of the art.

And now, nearly 3 years since Warlord debuted, he has gone from "Sppider-Man wannabe", to be called lately as "the Puertorican version of Spider-Man", which is a HUGE difference Many of my old detractors I think, just went "if you can't beat him, join him!" and lately have been praising the same stuff they hated not too long ago. While there are some that still wonder "his crappy stuff is actually gaining all this attention!? B..but...90s style Image comics is what the Puertorican and worldwide audience wants!" I don't claim to know what the audience wants...all I know is I'm trying to do something that is true to what my artistic soul wants to do, something that feels...real to me. I don't do it for any level of "succes". If I wanted that, I would've done something other than Warlord and send the whole local scene to hell a long time ago.
But as long as I can, I will keep doing this the only way I've been doing this for nearly 7 years now including short stints on indy american min-comics untill now, doing it my way, without any regrets, without expecting much from anything. And if I can help inspire or give a nudge in the right direction to others as well, I... ]]> ~Lance-Danger http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/24038517/ http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/24038517/ Fri, 03 Apr 2009 10:37:45 PDT

I've been recieving very kind, touching words to commemorate this finale, I always tend to be the first to belittle myself and my own work, but to see the various reactions really makes this just a special day for me =_) To all of you, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. I still am internetless at home, so time is limited and I can't thank everybody the way I wish I could, but I am grateful

To read my webcomic, go here [link] Some people have called this comic "touching", "moving", "historic", "pioneer", the most shocking comment came from facebook that something I did thank God, "should be the template for puertorican comics to follow" What do I personally call this work of mine? Something I did from the heart not to attain any level of "success", but something I did to inspire people in a way, to create and explore worlds of their own In any event, thank you all for the overwhelming support, don't forget to check out Scorp and Snarebang's/Franchy/Jabali's stuff as well, they totally RULE (far more than me)! As for me? Well, I'm working on the eplilogue to book 1 which will start in about a week, and then taking a short break. Then, God willing in about a month and a half, maybe 2 months from now, "Fred Peterson, The Mighty Warlord Book 2: Dark Light" will begin....thank you for your support, please look foward to Book 2 in about 2 months!

Just last night, I had one of the COOLEST dreams I've ever had (cooler than my deathhmatch with those hip-hop singers The Ying Yang Twins and...but that's another journal for another time....).

It was midnight. I remembered I had to gobuy something (said thing was never mentioned, I just had to go buy...something). So, I head out, it's all dark. I'm skipping (yes....skipping...) along the dark road, when I see a dog stare at me. Then he proceeds to bark like he was Godzilla size or something, when he was really a little bigger than a chihuaha So, I say to myself "well, I better start jumping so the dog won't catch me...". So, I jump, and I actually started to fly, and I was like "oh, I didn't know I could do that, I mean, I can jump FAR, but this is new....". So, guess what happens?

As I'm hovering in the sky, the frikkin' dog jumps and FLIES to where I am!!!!! I'm like "ok...this is NOT supposed to happen....). The dog apparently didn't control his, well, flight very well, going up and down.....until it finally get's it's bearings and flies at me. Then I say "oh, well, guess I'll just use my FORCE-FIELD VISION to safely knock the dog back down, and BOOM, down goes the canine

After that is over, I just glide on happily, touching the leaves of the trees as I fly by...until I come across the old factory I used to work in....only now, it was like 10 stories high and looked like a futuristic Nazi emprisonment camp (I guess my subconcious harbors a secret resentment towards my old job...) So, I just fly by to check out the factory and land on a roof of like the 4th floor. Then I hear freaked out voices talking, saying "HEY, what was that noise, NO ONE is supposed to be here!" And another voice saying "it's nothing, man, relax..." that's when things get...out of hand....

I hera that guy freak out, so, naturally, since I could fly so fast, I started RUNNING all over the roof, and stomping, and making LOUD noises....just to freak them out....and I hear one screming "DEAR GOD! WTF is THAT!???" and since I'm running all over the place, I hear the other dude saying "lord...THEY"RE EVERYWHERE!!!!!" Then, I fly up to the like 9th floor...where they're like, giving training or something at midnight. So, of course, I fly under the window.....and I start howling and screaming, and punching at the wall like a maniac...just to freak them out too, I mean, I was already up there, right? So, I hear them get startled....and then I use my X-RAY VISION just to look at their faces......

And when I saw them get close to the window...I let them see my hand through the window...I'm signaling for them to help me! And when they could all see....I started to fly all contorted like if...someone or something had a hold on me....while I scream and even try to claw the walls with my nails, pretending to be in trouble...then, when they all looked horrified.....I let myself drop, knowing I woudn't get harmed.... but I used my x-ray vision again as I fell, screaming to the top of my lungs...I saw the scared terrified faces, a woman began to cry and closed her eyes....and as I fell, I was thinking to myself"BWA-HHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's it, DANCE! DANCE to the tune I'm playing, you frikkin' PUPPETS! BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"..... Then, when I'm about to hit the ground, I think to myself (still laughing), "nahhh, even I am not THAT cruel....better wake up before this ESCALATES..." and...well.....I woke up And I thought to myself...I really am not that cruel.....am I......?

It has 2 new, never before seen pages, all the text has been re-written, new bits of dialogue as well, and is in full comicbook size contrary to the mini-comic size of the original!

These are exciting times, exciting times indeed As for the pop culture expo, good possibility of going, good possibilty on having copies available of the prologue there, buuut, issue #1 special edition, doesn't have a very good chance of making it, people at ka-blam are busy, busy, busy, so it might not get printed out in time, but who knows for the summer-time.....?

This means a lot to me, because after the internet problems started back in June, the book lost ALOT of the momentum it had going (Warlord actually got as high up as #53 on the most read DD comics before the now infamous "internt jinx"). So I honestly thought it was never going to recover from that (especially since I'm still not out of the woods with the 'net problems). Even though I don't really mind much the "ranks" and "positions" it may or may not make, it still feels pretty good I guess

So, as Book 1 is coming to an end, I feel a chapter in my life is coming to an end, as well. This is a long and winding road that was full of great experiences and growing pains. And many surprsies. Two and a half years ago, I would have NEVER ever thought I'd make it this far. But thank God, this dream of mine has pretty much been materialized Chapter 11 is bitter/sweet for me, because so far, in my opinion, it's the best looking chapter of all of book 1. That makes me feel glad (not happy, because my own art never makes me happy lol but close enough, I guess). But at the same time it's sad to me to see book 1 ending. It's also affects me in a way that this is THE MOST intense chapter of all of book 1, as well, so that is very emotionally draining, and it ha sat times affected my mood But, wow, after 2 and a half years, I still can't believe that thank God, I've actually pulled it off, especially with all the obstacle sthat kept/keeps getting in the way

As I wrote earlier, I shall be internetless again for a while, but the beauty of Drunk Duck is that you can upload the page sto the site, and have it automatically update the comic for you at the date you want, so even though I'll be internetless for a bit again, the comic should keep running smoothly. If you wanna see what's happening so far, check it out here [link]

Before I leave, there are just so many people I want to thank for their supprt, but most of all, for their friendship throughout all these years, once book 1 is all done with, I will make a proper list, hoping not to leave anybody out, but for now, to all of you, thank you from the bottom of my heart Hopefully I'll be with you guys again sooner rather than later, in any event, see you guys soon, thank you all again, and have a GREAT Turkey-week!

Yay! ) on my more recent deviations, sorry I haven't replied or checked your guys stuff out, still have about little over 3,000 messages/deviations, and I got stuck being VERY busy wrapping up chapter 10 and starting out chapter 11 of my webcomic, Fred Peterson The Mighty Warlord, since I might be offline for a week or two this week I will try and catch up as soon as possible again.

Speaking of The Mighty Warlord, a few announcements! Despite all the now infamous "internet curse" that has plagued Warlord (and my other webcomics, as well), Warlord is pretty durned close to the 200,000 views mark, which I find unbelievable. After gaining so much momentum earlier this year, then losing the internet and A LOT of the steam it was generating, I thought the title was doomed lol But it has picked up quite nicely since returning to a more regular, consistent schedule over the last few months. Also, it has surpassed the 3,000 comments mark, that makes me very happy Over the past few months I've been getting a little more comments than usual, so that's always good, to have that feedback to try and improve upon the book

And last but not least, the other day I was talking with ironing out the details of the guest appearance Warlord will make in his webcomic NovusGenesis Hype, and towards the end of the talks, he just says "btw, Warlord is going to be in the Boricuazo's facebook group, acknowledged as the longest running active comic in Puerto Rico"...and I'm like, "Say WHAT!?" lol For those who don't know, "El Boricuazo" is a VERY cool dude, who goes around promoting all the good and cool stuff puertoricans do around the world and such. So, the announcement was already made on the comments of the Facebook group (dude, THANKS again!), and from what I was told sometime maybe next month it shall be posted in the main site as well, making The Mighty Warlord oficially a little piece of Puertorican history! How weird/cool is that?

That's that for now, if you wanna check out the now "historic" (I guess lol) run of The Mighty Warlord, which first book is coming to it's end, go check it out here: [link] If you want to catch the Warlord speacial appearnce (which is in one week more or less) in NovusGenesis Hype, and also want to catch up with what's going on there, go here: [link] I'm outta here for now, hopefully my phne/internet problems will be resolved as quickly as possible, but anywho, thank you all so much for your support, hopefully I'll be around a little longer, I "heart: you all

Not weird "kinda cute" weird like that time. This was more like weird "oh my God, this is really awkward" kind of weird

Yesterday I went to the comicbook shop at San Patricio Plaza, to meet up with , , and his brother (that in itself is weird, because I don't leave my home much anymore lately, especially around the time X-Mas starts rearing it's head). Anywho, we're in front of the comicstore talking and generally geeking out. I somehow feel someone is watching me at one point. Then, all of the sudden, I notice kinda turn around and suddenly with a real "WTF?" look on his face. I turn around, and there, right behind me, was my ex-girlfriend's uncle

He actually lives in San Lorenzo, so, to suddenly see the guy, there in Guaynabo, and staring at me, well, it was a shock to me lol And he looked real happy to see me, too! Actually, from my ex's family, he was the one I got along with the most (and his daughter, but more on that in a little bit, and another younger cousin of my ex). I was just shocked to see him there, really, especially since at least I think I look very different than how I looked last time we had talked, about 5 years ago, like a few weeks before the relationship between my former gal and I finally came to a merciful end lol

So, he's just there, standing with this huge smile. "I knew it, I knew it was you!" he said before I had even said a word. I didn't even know what to say because in my mind I still couldn't even grasp what was going on, until I finally say hello lol Turns out his daughter, who had moved to the states, also like a few weekes before my ex and I put up the white flag, had come to visit PR for the first time since leaving (something my ex told me about a few weeks back over the phone, that she was coming over for a visit), and his wife went to the spa in San Patricio, and where going to stay there for a couple of hours, so he just started drifting around the mall. Of course, in my mind, my first thought was "of all the spas....in all the malls between San Lorenzo and Guaynabo....in all the days they could've gone...why?" lol Not that I never would've wanted to ever run into him again, on the contrary, it was cool to see the guy again. Hell, when my ex and I officially broke up, I didn't cry, it wasn't until after I told her on th ephon eto say goodbye to him and the cousin that always hung out with us because he seemed to really be getting attached to me, after we stopped talking on the phone and I told her to say goodbye for me to them, that's when I actually cried by myself over here lol

So, that in itself was weird, but what made it awkward for me was when he told me her daghter was there too. Her daughter, my ex's cousin, they where almost more like sisters, really. Many times my ex, her, and her then bf (now husband) would sometimes hangout (but mostly it was the three of us, my ex, her cousin, and me). And, well, one of the very last skirmishes my ex and I had was based around her. And after the breakup, things, just got weirder and weirder between the three of us, because of things, my ex said, to me AND to her (who had just gotten married like maybe a month or two before my ex and I broke-up) during a period of time when I didn't know what the hell was on my ex's mind, to be honest lol. It's so complicated I don't even want to go into the details about it.

So, there he was, just...glowing I remem... ]]> ~Lance-Danger http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/21154919/ http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/21154919/ Sat, 25 Oct 2008 12:07:00 PDT I have so many things to catch up with still, already got more or less up to speed on MySpace/Facebook, but I still have over 4,000 deviations/messages here on DA alone that I haven't even begun to catch up with still :S I'll try my best to do that, but I'm araid that with the current schedule and responsabilities I have, I will not be able to reach out to everyone

I also came to the realization some girls are...kinda weird I was talking with recently, and I remembered this thing that happened in the mall to me about a month ago, and I told her, now I shall tell you guys lol Since I was without internet and without printer most of this year (thank God, I have both things again), I had to go to the mall to get things done. One day, i went to print out some resumes over there and my mom tagged along. While I was in a bench stapling the resumes, this girl came out of nowhere and I saw she was literally just standing there in front of me. How long she was doing that, I don't know, because I was busy, well, stapling lol

Then she procedes to ask me what I was doing. I tell her I'm, well, stapling lol I told her it was resumes, to which she TAKES one from my hand sand starts reading it! :S Then she says "wow, you're good, how old are you?". That's when things started getting....weird. And mind you, my MOM is there the whole time! So I say, I'm 29. She answers "I'm 21, and yes, I know, I look like I'm 14", and actually, she did look a lot younger than 21. Then she says she's also studying what was on my resume. I'm like, "well, cool!". Then, she stares at me again, and asks "you're nervous?" Well, I wasn't nervous, really, just someone who I NEVER saw in my life read through my resume and is practically conducting an interview in front of my mom, but, hell, when she asked that, I, well, got nervous

I go "uh, no, n-not really..", and then, she sits down...between my mom and me, giving her back to my mom, laughing! "You're nervous!" she says. "Whay are you nervous?" she asks I say "Well, not really nervous..I guess, I'm ,well, shy" lol And she's like "Ohhh, don't say that!" That went on for a few minutes before my mother stood up (I still can't confirm it, but I think fire was starting to come out of her eyes...) and was "well, we have to go..", which, well , was true, anyway, and that girl, well, was starting to freak me out D So as we leave, I said "pleasure meeting you", which terribly confused my mom. Later, she asks me "you said 'leasure meeting you'...you mean you don't know who that girl was?". And I reply, well, no lol God, that was such an awkward day More things happened that day, but I rather not even talk about it, I know you guys aren't into smal talk, anyway

Well, that's all for now, I'll try and catch up with you guys, and see if I start uploading other stuff than nVd stuff. Take care all, thank you for reading, I you all, see you soon with more weridness, most likely

So, concerned about the number of art theft that has been happeing around lately, I decide to Google Warlord. And I was SHOCKED. I saw a list in a forum that had "Fred Peterson: The Mighty Warlord". I was like, "what is this about?". I check it out, and it was a list of webcomics that fell JUST SHORT of recieving the neccesarry votes to be in the nomination ballot! Like about maybe 3 votes! I am in SHOCK. Makes me think that if I HAD mentioned it earlier, I might've been NOMINATED! Whoa.

For those wondering, I fell just short in 2 categories, for "Outstanding Dramatic Writer" for Warlord, and "Outstanding Character Writing" for Warlord as well From the bottom of my heart, whoever wher e the ones who actually took the time to vote to try and nominate me, THANK YOU! I'm as excited as if I was nomintaed! LOL! Wow, I'm pumped to make Warlord even better to feel I deserved the near nomination! to everybody!
~Alvaro

PS- The link to my almost nominated webcomic! lol! [link]

Don't know how many of you remember (or even know, since there's a bunch of newer watchers since then) that I used to do writing/artwork for a non-profit comic studio CF Comics for the Cystic Fybrosis Foundation (CFF). That was actually my very first published (on print, no less!) work ever, a few pin-ups, drew a story somebody else wrote, then wrote/drew 2 more stories with them before it's untimely demise (I am to this day still HONORED that my last story I did for them that got printed was the last one they closed out the comic with).

Well, through the years I have kept sporadic contact with most of the surviving creators, and one of them has formed an indie studio with another creator. His name is George McVey, and ever since the CF Comics days there has been an interest of doing something someday. And looks like that day will come soon!

George McVey along with Micheal Marcus has formed indie studio HIM that publishes 2 indie comics, "Pulp Dreams" and "If X". George wrote to me to see if I would e interested to do some stuff for "If X" which is an anthology of short stories that are different to one another but share a common theme throughout a particular issue. And I shall be contributing to the "If X" anthology. Not certain if I will draw it too, but as far as I know definitely will write a couple of short stories for that.

The cool thing, is that their comics are sold through a bunch of places throughout the US, and just recently, they made it to Forbidden Planet in New York (and soon FP in ENGLAND!), and Comic Relief in Berkely, Cali. And they are selling out their issues pretty damn quick, too. So, hopefully throughout the rest of 2008/2009, you guys just might see some indie work of mine once again in the indie circuit of the States, and in a bigger platform, too!

So, if you want to check that out, go to the HIM website here [link] where it's chockfull of their info, and even order their comics and books! So, give it a look I'm out for now, the other announcement, is still in the works, but it almost looks like a done deal, too, I'll keep you all posted on that and maybe a couple of Warlord announcements too, ok? Ok! 'Till next time, take care and as always, I you all

I was just at 's page congratulating her on her 4 year DA b-day (and you should, go too, since it's a great gallery!), and then I realize that I myself have been 4 years on DA since Janurary! As she so appropiately said, time flies

Also, got a bit of a surge and now this here page has little over 6K views! Yay! A very belated thank you to my DA family, I'll try and do a special illo or something for this occasion

Also, about the possible project I've mentioned these past 2 journals, negociations are ongoing, so I'll have news on that soon, and also, two new scenarios has landed on my inbox, so, I just may make a triple announcement if it all goes well

Anywho, I'm off for now, once again, as the song says, thank you for the memories (but these are really good memories! lol!), take care, I you all, to everybody

]]> ~Lance-Danger http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/17744488/ http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/17744488/ Tue, 08 Apr 2008 08:27:14 PDT Just wanted to give a bit of an update on what I mentioned ni my last journal, about a commsion possibility and to announce what feels to me like the end of an era lol

First off, as reccomended by I wrote back to the person that had contacted me through MySpace asking if I do commiosioned art for a project he is going to take part in (no, I will not say what it is just yet! ). Now, for a few months now, ever since both my webcomic and my deviantArt stuff for some reason has been attracting a bit more attention than usual, I have had offers thrown my way that seems too good to be true, and it was just that, it was too good to be true lol! So, thankfully enough I've been able to keep a clear mind as to not jump at any opportunity given to me blindly and with a bit of caution. So, the guy wrote back to me today, and showed me many of the planning and reasearch he has done, and is even interested in my input 0_o It is a fascinating project, and I feel VERY attracted to it, since hopefully it won't affect any of my participation with Warlord and my other webcomic, not to mention some of the projects I will be doing over the next few months heading into summer for Studio 22 with my tagteam partner So, now, for the first time ever, I am entering negotiations with this person about the financial apect of things. It feels weird in a way, because the only things I have ever commisioned ahve been a handful of scripts, actually. Never in my wildest dreams I thought that someone would actually approach me to do commisioned work Especially at the level of visibilty that it would have if all this falls into place. It's kind of scary, in a way, but in another way, gratifying because I think out of a lot of people that I know and that know me, I think I would be the LAST person that would think that I would have an opportunity like this (I myself include myself in that assumption, though I have always thought very little of myself lol), and you can certainly see that God works in mysterious ways in occasions like this one So, once all the "t"s are crossed and the "i"s are dotted, I will make an official announcment here, which at this pace I wouldn't be surprised it the deal is finalized by the weekend, give or take a few days depending on the respective responses. Again, it's something that may not be very huge in a way, but in it's own way it is huge for me personally, because this step is a big one for me, who has always been afraid of the spotlight, and this just may be the step that will push me into it. :nervous: Well, I guess it is a big thing depending on your point of view if it becoms official and I announce it here (and don't go asking what all this is about because I am going to tell him myself to not DARE tell anybody yet! lol), so we'll all have to wait a bit

Now, for the bad lol Well, it really isn't THAT bad. My printer, the very first printer I ever owned, has finally died on me a few hours ago. I've had that printer for 11 years, and it actually kind of saddened me a bit, because I do feel it's the end of an era lol So many college assignments. So many artwork printed. My first self publihed comics I printed it out there so I could take them to the copy place. Even stickers and such, so many pleasent memories lol 11 years, and now I must say goodbye *sniff* Surely enough, this was the ideal printer! If I finally get a hold of a job or this commision deals happens, I can only hope my next printer will give me as much joy as this one did! I shall buy something... ]]> ~Lance-Danger http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/17724633/ http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/17724633/ Mon, 07 Apr 2008 00:15:53 PDT Well, what I can remember, anyway, been batting all of last week with throat trouble, and the pills I was presrcibed for it makes me big time sleepy, so all this week I've been falling asleep at any given time after taking said pills That has wrecked havok on updating my webcomic I have the lineart for a few pages done (even the colors seperated at 50% of them!), but I get so drowsy, I haven't been able to finish them out

Somehow, I almost get the feeling that is wanting me to hook up with a gal Actually, so has my brother-in-law. Heck, my brother-in-law last time we spoke told me "man, hook up with somebody, even if it's your ex, man!" In case anybody was wondering since it's been a long while I guess that I haven't written about her, she is doing fine and is currently in a relationship, and we still talk sometimes (we spoke just last week, actually). And no, I wouldn't have tried to hook up with her, as most of you already know

I guess some people (to not say all lol) think I've been single a bit too long now. I dunno. I don't really mind being alone. All though I have to admit over the weekend I was thinking about how it would be being in a relationship, though I don't give that too much thought really. When it happens, it happens, I have some things to focus on first, like getting a stable job, which is getting more and more difficult as of late I suppose if I finally got a stable dayjob, even if it doesn't pay much, just enough to eventually finally fix up the car and some other stuff, I might at least be able to go visit a girl or something if she lived far and what not. It's kinda silly (lol, like a gal pal said to me a bit bewildered once, "so, you're not going to try and get a gf until you get a job? DUDE!!!" lol) I know that work and money is not everything in a relationship or a budding relationship, but it sure helps lol So yeah, gonna hit the streets begging for a job again this week, since my throat has gotten dramatically better, see if I can get the wheels of the car spinning soon, or get a newer car (that would also make it easier to hit the convention scene again, also).

In other stuff, yesterday I recieved a message in MySpace. For the first time ever, somebody asked me if I do commisioned artwork 0_o So that was pretty cool. I replied to said person, and let's see where it goes from there. I'm not talking about what it is just yet, because I want to see if all falls into place, so then I can make a proper announcement later on, only one other person knows what it's all about. But what I can say, is that it'll give me quite a bit of exposure, or in any case, much more exposure that I currently have, which is a pretty low key exposure, because I am terrified of being in a spotlight and feel very confortable in the current situation that I am right now, where I'm not like very popular or anything, but the work I do is reaching where it has to reach So, if anything happens, I'll let you all know here first, deal?

Anywho, this journal is running a bit long and the pills are starting to get their effect in again lol So, anyway, hope everybody had a great weekend, have a great week, 'till next time, take care, I you all and to you all!

Second, this was tag from like, early Jan or late dec, and NOW is that I'm finally answering it Since I took so long to finally doing it, I will not torture anybody else by tagging them And so, here are 8 interesting facts you may not know of me

1- In the brief stint I had in the National Guard, I qualified to be a sniper 0_o
2- I am 28, and still whenever there's a place that requieres you to be older than 18, I still get asked to show identificaction, followed by a Rurouni Kenshin-esque comment "28, with a face like THAT!?" o_0
3- Been told I look sexy singing stone Temple Pilots songs
4- With that last fact in mind, it's been a month now that I lead sing the hymns in front of the church that I go to
5- The first comicbooks I ever buyed when I was around 6 years old, would be like these, small, digest sized comics that in one huge page count, would have stories of Muppet Babies, Heathcliff, and this story about what where actully toys, I thik they where called "Monster Balls" or something like that, I remember the toys where rubber balls that had monster faces on them and such And of course, Archie Comics (Betty was so purty to me back then lol )
6- I must have seen Samurai X: Trust/Betrayel like a million times now!
7- I firmly blieve that Hayao Miyazaki and Hideaki Anno are the Spielberg and Lucas of Anime/Japanese Films
8- I'd do anything for a Klondike bar

Well, that's that, until next time, take care and

First off: I'm getting married and leaving this God foresaken Island known as Puerto Rico (aka HELL HOLE where Jesus never passed through!) I met the girl like, what, a week ago at a party. We spoke all that night, had a few drinks. Next thing I remember I woke up next to her in a bed at a friends house

To make things even weirder, Dan Didio, editor at DC Comics, has ben scouting new people lately, and hehappened to come across Warlord at Drunk Duck! :shock: Since I had a Robin illo over there, and he liked Warlord so much because as he wrote in his e-mail to me, "Reminds me of the Roger Stern era of Spideys in the late 70's and 80's!", he wants me to send a sample script to him, and if all goes well, I shall be the new writer on Robin! Frikkin' ROBIN!

I told this to my new girl, and she said "FUCK IT, yo! Let's go to New York! Their offices are there, right? I can FINALLY start my fucking band there, we're gonna kick some ASS!" I love her so

So, yes, I am moving to NY to get married and possibly write Robin! What about Warlord, you ask? After nearly 2 years, I will finish it cutting it shorter than originally planned due to these circumstances, I'm afraid Hope you didn't get too close to Fred's character, because he dies to save the world in a climatic battle. Devastaed by this loss, Cheryl nters deep depression, but Jane is there to help her. And 1 year after Fred's/Warlord's death, Cheryl and Jane get happily married So, it's a bit of a happy ending, right?

Anywho, gotta go, my girl is howling for my attention, 'till later, it was a pleasure knowing you all, take care, and God speed!

Just feel excited because Warlord has surpassed the 100,000 views mark in Drunk Duck! It's really a surprise for me, seeing how it tool like 11 months to make the first 50 K views, and like 6 months after that, I get the other 50 K 0_o And here I thought no one would read my stuff nearly 2 years ago I have a very bad self-image, I guess, but meh, it's all good

In behalf of Studio 22 and myself, thank you all for your support in these nearly 2 years of this craziness Chapter 7 ends next Thursday and chapter 8 will kick off the final "arc" of Book 1!

....No, I did not have a better title for this journal 0_o Actually, I was tagged by for some journal thing, not too sure what it is, but I'll save that beautiful torture for the next updated journal

Well, at least I fianlly updated some stuff here. Gotta get working on more original illos and poems/songs to upload here. Between the deviations and the messages, got roughly over 2,000 things to get up to speed here. It will be a slow process, but I'll try my best to get up to date

Speaking of poems/songs, I was at 's page at All Poetry, and decided to open an account there, too. Check it out here [link] And check out 's page as well here [link]

And yep, I'm a part of that funky new studio, Studio 22! Along with tagteam partner There are many surprises instore for 2K8, hope you all look foward to it! The MySpace page is [link]

Also, chapter 7 of my webcomic (after Yenny, I think Warlord is like, now the longest running local webcomic lol ) began last Monday, check it out if you'd like here [link] Which reminds me, the Web Cartoonist Choice Awards have begun their nomination thingies. If you have read Warlord, and think it's as cool as the other side of the pillow, then go here, register, and nominate it if you like [link] Of course, I expect no nominations whatsoever lol

I'm going to slowly (but surely) start catching up to your guys stuff, and try my best to keep up this year with you guys and submitting stuff here. I'm suprised I've surpassed the 5K views here, since I go these LOOOONGGG droughts without even posting anything here, not to mention my bi-polar journals that amuses even myself sometimes

I now have 6 videos on YouTube (4 of which are trailers/teasers of my webcomics). Go give 'em a look if you like, here's the link [link] It's actually quite fun to do them, so there will be more in the future =3

In a non-related note, the other day, I was talking with a friend I haven't spoken with in a while. She mentions how surprising it is that I have not gotten myself a gf just yet Maybe I should make some time out of my erratic schedule to go girl hunting or at least try and change that situation at least. And if I do, I will NOT do it on a reality TV show, promise! What do you guys think?

Anywho, I'm off to ponder what exactly I shall do for 2K8, in the meanwhile, I wish for nothing but the best for all of you, may this year be full of new, wonderful things for all of you, full of many, many blessings and dreams come true Catch you all later! to everyone!

I have let this acct gather quite a bit of dust lately, and worse of all, not been up to speed with all of your guys stuff, I'm sorry I will try to do better, and hopefully throughout 2008 I'll be around here more often.

Ahhh, 2007, "it was the best of times, it was the worse of times" lol Might do a year in review type thing, those are always fun lol Anywho, the best of wishes to all of you who watch and stalk, may you all and your loved ones have a very merry Christmas, I you all, my dear friends

Man, that was FUN. I'm sorry, I didn't tell much people at all (or even announced it here nor in MySpace) that I would be going, but I myself was not sure if I would go due to my lonewolf attitude I've had as of late But I am glad I went.

I sat at the Artificium Popart Press/Studio 22 table with , and Vego and his wife, and the girl that models as Alafta. This was the second ever convention that I was at showing off my own stuff. It was, cool in an awkward kind of way lol I mean, A LOT of people, came by and saw my stuff, and spoke with me (some even asked me for advice :shock: ). Those who know me, know that I am not a big talker, and in these kind of events, I tend to shy away into a corner. But there was no escaping from being in a spotlight, hell, I was even talked into talking on stage! On friggin' stage! 0_o And I did

There was one point after that, that a kid, maybe like 12 or something, walked by the table, casually looking about, then, he saw on my corner, a printed out version of two Warlord illos ( [link] and this one [link] ). He just stopped cold in his tracks and stared at those 2 illos in the binder I had on the table. He stood there a good, 4, 5 minutes, then, turned the binder to the very first page, and looked through the whole thing, takeing about easily 5 or 6 minutes on each page 0_o and when he finally finished looking at the binder, he then turned his attention to the comic pages of Warlord, I took the original pages from the webcomic, what I thought where the most decent pages from chapters 1-5. Again, he took his sweet time looking at it. At one point, he actually kneeled downed and kept flipping through the pages. was like, "dude, talk to him!" and I'm like, "what do I even say?". The kid almost looked like he was in a trance lol I have NEVER seen anyone look at my art the way he did, so that was pretty cool

Speaking of Warlord, I had photocopied 5 different promos, 10 sheets of each project I'm doing (Warlord, nVd, DTF6, The Cannon Girl, and Clown). Warlord's flyers, to my surprise, where the first one to empty out, pretty quickly, too 0_o And one of the sponsers of the event, BAM! Art Store, the lady that was representing them, when she saw the The Cannon Girl flyer, she snatched it up all excited about it, and said she was going to actually hang that flyer in the store 0_o And at the copy place I photocopied the flyers, they kept one of Clown (actually, more like stole lol thank goodness it was a printed out copy from my pc rather than the original illo), so, early into it, seems like Clown is getting his fare share of attention The nVd flyers and the DTF6 flyers actually ran out as well, though nowhere near as quickly as the Warlord one did. I didn't even notice when it had run out. I have underestimated my own creation yet again, at the seems

So yeah, high point in this activity, was the overhelming support from the organizers, and from the people that stopped by, not to mention all the other artists who is always great to see and chat with again. Another fun high point was when and I where chatting along and Vego came and snapped pics, with ~Lance-Danger http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/15035290/ http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/15035290/ Fri, 12 Oct 2007 20:30:03 PDT Actually, what the pa dude said on the speakers, was:
"We are happy to inform that being with us on this special night, is WWE's own Triple H....... with a CHEESEBURGER!!!"

And during a standing ovation, surely enough, Triple H stood up, proudly with cheeseburger in hand. The singer looked quite happy/disturbed, but it didn't end there..... When she started talking about one of her songs, Triple H stood up yet again and started walking towards the stage.

Suddenly, there's Triple H on stage with what I assume was Yolandita Monge. He looks at the crowd and the crowd looked on in expectation. At that moment, in the dream, I thought to myself "naaaaaah, he WOULDN'T...".... Surely enough, Triple H took a big bite off his cheeseburger....and proceeded to spit it out on to the crowd, like he would with the bottled water entrance he does when he goes to hava a wrestling match, and the crowd went BLOODY WILD Sadly enough, it didn't end there.....

Yolandita Monge, looked kinda like "oh, well", and she started to talk about her song again, but Triple H wouldn't step down from the stage. He casually walks behind her, looking at her from top to bottom, and proceeds to flirt with her on stage. She avoids him and starts singing. Sudddenly, he hugs her from behind, and the pretty conservative dress she had on, was taken off by Triple H!!!! 0_o Underneath, she was wearing a gown that made the infamous J-Lo dress look like a nun habit. And the thing is, though the face of the singer looked like Yolandita Monge, she had the body of her daughter, Noelia And it keeps getting weirder....

After that, I stood up, and walked down and got onstage as well, but to a corner, just to get a closer look of what the hell was going to happen next! I sit in a corner, and Triple H glances at me, with a smirk. Suddenly, he was handed a guitar, to which he begins to serenade Yolandita Monge 0_o Yes, you read right, Triple H was wooing Yolandita Monge/Noelia on stage with a guitar and a little singing. I look on in disbelief, when suddenly, I was given a guitar. Apparently they wanted me to be the second guitar to Triple H during this sad, sad show. I just shouted "Uh-uh! No way in hell!". Triple H glanced at me again. Smirked an angry kind of smirk, turned away, and left. Then Yolandita/Noelia left. I took the guitar and sat back up where I was sitting wit hmy friends, but it didn't end at that (I know, this is LONG, but if you're reading up to THIS point, it's because you're mildly amused by this lol).

I sit back up, the lights went on again, and suddenly it was a classroom. We're all excited because of the subsitute teacher. From what I heard, she was a very nice, humble teacher, and she was excited, because if our regular teacher didn't come at that day again, she was officially going to becom eour permanent teacher and keep her job secured. She came in all smiles. Talks to the class a bit, when suddenly, the regular teacher came in. He said he was now 100% healthy again, and tha the was back for good. Now, the substitue teacher, was workless because he had come back. the entire class went silent. She just looked at the ground, and said "well, that's great that you're all right. Guess I shoule be going now, then...". Then she looks right at me, and I still have the guitar with me. She asks ms if I could play something. I didn't dare say no to her, so I strum, this eerie, solemn, emo-ish tune on the guitar, as she slowly walked towards the door. She opens the door, and before se walks out, looks back at the class one last time, then turns away and leaves, shutting the door slowly.

As the teacher was about to talk to the class, suddenly, the door opens again, and it was the poor lady teacher, she only popped her head into the room from the door, looked back at the class again, then again left clsong the door slowly. The teacher was about to start class, and that's when I woke up 0_o

And that, my friends, is one of the weirdest freakingdreams I have EVER had. The only thing sad about all this, is that I've had FAR weirder dreams than this one http://Lance-Danger.deviantart.com/journal/14538863/ Sat, 08 Sep 2007 00:17:57 PDT
Just that, sometimes I dig my own grave, lay down in it, then, after a while of laying down there, I ask myself "what the hell am I doing here?", and it's kinda hard to crawl out again lol I'm always there for everybody. Yet, when I need someone, I isolate myself. I rather carry my own baggage, even when I know, eventually it does me more harm than good, and then when it becomes too much, well, you've all seen lol

Anywho, don't mind me and my sudden mood swings, I think I just need a girlfriend or something I'll figure out what it is, I just hope, no more worries from you all (I've already recieved threats that if I kill myself, they'll KILL me lol! So, I'll be around, at least for another while even though I didn't think, my last journal was suicidal, though).

It's kinda ironic. Whenever I say or write I hope that nobody gets worried over me, it sets off some kinda of alert, triggers an alarm or something, that all the contrary happens I do apologize for that.

Anywho, I'll try and catch up with everybody, just that things have been....hectic. So, anyway, take care everybody, have a great weekend, much love to all of you

PS- I'm fine. No, really

What I feel, is torn. Between wanting to see through the very end everything I've hoped to accomplish, even if the vast mayority of those dreams are fading away as I wake into a new reality, and between this overwhelming feeling, of just giving up, because all my life, all I've done, is fight, and I feel I have nothing left to fight for anymore, I guess. I feel as if I had nothing to lose anymore. As if I had anything to begin with.

I feel trapped with conflicting emotions, pulling me at either side, and I'm feeling so tired, right now. All this time past, have taken a heavier toll on me than I could ever have imagined. I feel that I have been so selfless and so giving, to anybody and everybody, that I have nothing left to give, and nothing left to even recieve, I guess. I feel spent. I feel like I don't know what to do at this point. Things, where finally, taking shape, just last month. And in the span of maybe 3 weeks, everything is just slowly drifting away from me, further everyday, and I feel so helpless as I watch everything I hoped for, everything I stand for, just go away. I always wind up being alone one way or the other. Don't know why I even bother typing all this down. Because I will know what will happen.

I'll write up a silly journal about I how I am fine. No, really, super fine. And inside, there will be a darkness that has always been inside of me, that will always be reminding me, that I never am fine, and I will never know peace as much as I try to act it out. And that in the end, whether it be by choice or circumstance, it's me and me alone that must carry this burden I have on me, ever since I have memory. Because I always wind up alone in the end.

I wonder, if I were, to die tomorrow, will anybody miss me? What would people say, or think? I'll think about that some more, as I sit in a dark corner in my room, strumming on my guitar. About how I was just another nameless, faceless person in a crowd. Nothing special. In meantime, I do, with all of what's left of my heart, wish you all to have a great day today, and rest of the week, and weekend. I'll just, keep doing what I guess I'm only good at doing. Keep drifting away from everybody until I just become a faint memory in everybodies mind. And I always did mean it, you know, when I said that I appreciate every single one of you. I'll always mean it. Anywho, this journal has run long enough. See you all next time, I guess. Take care, and God bless.

Even though she herself was telling me about it, still, it was, kind of scary the thought of possibly having lost her. We've been very good friends, for a couple of years now. And even though time and distance has made us not really keep in touch with each other, as much as we used too, every second I can chat with her, even if it's just one minute, I treasure it so much. It's like I told her, it's now and I find myself missing her sometimes, if anything worse had happened, I'd be unconsolable

This past month, has been a very big, learning experience. And if one thing I have learned, especially after chatting with my friend last night, is that sometimes we may take for granted the people who are there for us. Not because we want to or because we think less of them. It's quite the contratry. It's because we think they're going to be there forever. So a thing as simple as saying "I love you", or "I really value your friendship", get's lost somewhere inbetween "oh, he/she knows" and "there's always tomorrow".

And that's the point, you can never be too sure that there will be a tomorrow. Nothing in life is really certain. Thank God, almost every conversation I have with her ends with me saying I love you, or I appreciate you. Still, it would have grieved me like nothing had before if anything had gone worst. But, I would've felt even worse, if something happened, and I never told her an I love you. And I don't mean that in a romantic sense, you know.

But still, to all of you who may read this, please, PLEASE, appreciate your friends, your families, those around you that you care about, because you never know what will happen. Life is short, and life is hard sometimes. But it would be a whole lot harder without those people close to you. So, I guess that I'm saying, that if you have a loved one, friend, bf, gf, whatever, just take a moment to tell that person how much you care. It's a very, very hard lesson I've been slowly learning these past few days, but, it's not such a bad thing, to show a person your feelings, it's not a crime really, right? Anywho, take care, until next time, stay safe, and let the people important to you know how you appreciate them, and hey, I appreeciate and care for all of you guys too
~A VERY grateful Alvaro

PS- This really wasn't going to be the journal I was going to put up tonight, I just had to write this, because of how grateful I feel that my friend is ok :_)

Anywho, I've barely slept a wink, I'm comming down with a most terrible flu But I did upload quite a bit of new art Even dusted off my old BlogSpot blog! Now it will hold sketches and nutty stuff, while my more polished, finished stuff goes up here. So, if you wanna keep tabs on my BlogSpot, go here [link]

My friend, she says she'll never speak to me again, then she goes and speaks to me, to then say she never will again, then, speaks to me again Currently she's at "never speak again" mode, let's see for how long.... I do kinda hope things sort out, I did value her friendship and let her know that, JUST friendship. Let's see what happens.

On the comics front, Warlord is in chapter 5 over at Drunk Duck, it's having it's most succesfull chapter opening to date 0_o Crazy. Pretty soon I'll start uploading season 3 of nVd over here, as well as season 2 of Weepaman y Weepito, as well as a new one that has been causing quite the storm, The Cannon Girl! Warlord you can read here [link]

I'm also now doing the english translation/revision to NovusGenesis, and the english version starts this monday! Yikes! Check it out here: [link]

Might be getting a few job interviews in the coming weeks, so that'll be good! Was invited to take place at a convention in October, so it would be great to have issue #1 of Warlord out by then! So, if all goes well, for the first time in well over a year since the Utuado Convention, Prospecto Arts just might have a table at a convention again! Let's see what happens.

Btw, I just discovered, this website, called Wowio, thanks to David Alvarez who put up a few issues of Yenny there. It's a place you can download free books/novels and comics. FREE! That is just soooo cool! If you're interested, check it out at [link] Heck, might eventually upload Warlord as an e-book over there, too!

Sept 2 will be the comics convention at the YMCA! I have no idea if I'll be going, most probably will as a fan, to say a quick hello to all my friends.

Anywho, that's about it for now. Going to try to get at least some sleep. Flu no good lol Anywho, I hope you all have a great and safe weekend, I'll try and get up to speed on all your guys stuff, hugs for you all, God bless, luv you guys!

I didn't see it then, but it now reminds me of how frail and fleeting life can be. It really makes you put your own life into perspective, when a person who worked out regularly and was a vegetarian, suddenly dies of a heart attack. And seeing that in a way, he passed on, without really doing what he really wanted to do, since he was unhappy at drawing for Marvel because he wasn't doing his own stuff.

After much thought and healing some scars of my own, facing personal demons that I thought had long vanished from my life, I have made a lot of decisions these past few days. Some of them where very, VERY, hard. But neccesary in a way, I guess, to be able to grow.

I can't keep putting things off for tomorrow or when I feel better or when I feel ready. I can't wait any longer to wait for "the perfect moment", because no moment is perfect. You either decide to do it or not to do it, and you learn to live with the consequences of your actions. And I'm going to do what I always wanted to do, but held myself back out of just, self imposed fear, I guess. And, not knowing what will happen is nerve wrecking, fills you up with anxiety. Can be a bit frustraiting. Very. And I'm not speaking just career wise. I have many uphill personal battles to face right now. A very lonely battle.

As I sit on the edge of inevitablity and uncertainty, I admit I'm a bit scared, but, hopefull in a way. So, hopefully I'll be around more often and checking out your stuff as ofen as possible. Take care, I love you all, and I hope you all look foward to all the stuff that's going to come about A whole lot of love to you all See around very soon!

Things ave been pretty cool, I guess. Been busy with Warlord stuff, I've cooled off a bit because I hurt my shoulder (Again). But hopefully I'll be on track again on the differents forums and here on DA (miss you guys!).

My b-day, kinda started on the wrong foot, actually, sadly enough, I got into a disagreement let's call it, with a friend. Things ended kinda on good terms, I guess, but I'm afraid our friendship will never be the same again I do care for her deeply, and hope we can just laugh about it down the road.

Anywho, on Sunday gonna go see a movie with a friend, one of them friends of the female kind lol Been a WHILE since I've gone out, I guess, so, wish me luck! Take care and I love you all!
