David Lloyd har noget at fejre!
Hej
I min dækning af San Diego messe, nævnte jeg at jeg havde snakket med David Lloyd (V for Vendetta), som gik og arbejdede med at skabe et site for digitale tegneserier, hvilket han ikke er ene om, da der i disse år er dukket en del af disse op. Men for en uges tid siden sendte ham mig noget pressemateriale med noget mere info, hvor ham bl.a. skriver;
ACES WEEKLY is an exclusively digital comic art magazine tailored
for computer and tablet, featuring top talents in sequential art from
around the globe. Published by David Lloyd – the man who brought
you V For Vendetta – and managed by ex- Marvel editor, Bambos
Georgiou, Aces Weekly offers an exciting new opportunity for
creators in the medium of comic art : the ability to connect directly
with their readers, unchained by the limitations of retail and
distribution which, for decades, have restricted the reach of many
great comics stories published for print. Creators in Aces Weekly are
given the freedom to tell almost any story they want to tell, with
complete ownership of their creation assured, and an equal share of
all income generated.
Det er meningen, at der skal udkomme nyt materiale hver uge (deraf navnet), som man så abonnerer på. Han har også fundet en masse talentfulde folk, der ligesom ham selv bidraget med nyt materiale.
In Volume One, 5 serials in 3-page episodes run over 7-weeks. Readers subscribe to volumes which cost £6.99/$9.99 per seven issue volume. Appears every 7 days with continuing stories from great creators, including David Lloyd, Kyle Baker, David Hitchcock, John McCrea, Lew Stringer, Mark Wheatley, Yishan Li, Herb Trimpe, David Leach, Alain Mauricet, Paul Maybury, Billy Tucci, Bill Sienkiewicz, Marc Hempel, James Hudnall, Carl Critchlow, Kev Hopgood, Steve Bissette, Val Mayerick, Henry Flint, Dan Christensen, Shaky Kane, Dave Hine, Colleen Doran, Dylan Teague… and many more.
