Latest Updates from Our Project:

TNT will not die!
15 days ago – Wed, Aug 05, 2026 at 07:15:11 PM

 A backer sent me a request for an update so i thought I should share my reply with you too!


So... I was just about ready to go to print when I got back in
 touch with an old famous author friend. ( One of his childhood 
stories is actually in this book) So, I wanted to check with
 him if it would hurt his family that I told what I was going
 to tell. He said it's okay but one thing let to another and he
 gave me new info into the murder of a mutual friend. 
(had been unsolved)

So now I feel like I have to go back and draw more pages to
 fill in that part of the story!

And yes, I'm dragging my ass again to get that done. 🙁

My plan is that this coming week i'll only focus on finishing 
TNT, no gym, no outings, just TNT and whatever emergency fires that always come up.

I'll let you know how that goes.

Thanks for checking in, I really appreciate it.

Best,

 Eric
PS i drew two pages this week, just need to fine tune them, shade, letter and add them to the printers file.

TRUE NOIR TALES ACTUALLY PRINTED!

Dear Backers,

 I had a sexy hardcover proof printed, and DAMN it's hot!


 

Alas, as many sexy, hot things, it's got flaws...

The good news is that after just a few more rounds of editing it should be good for the big print run and ship it out to you!!

Thanks for hanging in there!

More soon.

True Noir Tales LIVES... still :-(

 Dear Backer,

Yes i suck :-( I should be flogged like a filthy dog. I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to get this project made and sent to you. It's so shameful.

I truly don't understand how after delivering promptly on all my other crowdfunded comics, this one has been such a failure.

I am still working on it.
I will finish it and deliver it to you.

Best,
 Eric  

True Noir Tales Update
about 1 year ago – Thu, Aug 14, 2025 at 03:15:57 PM

Hey my Beloved Backers!

Now that Crime in a resort town is finished, I realized that as is true in much of life, endings can be downbeat... not really what I wish for in comics. So I decided to add another wrap up True Noir Tale to the book as a cherry on top! I'll draw the last two pages to finish that, then letter and shade! I'll be sending more updates as more gets finished.

Thanks so much for hanging in there!
