Re: Responding to David and Dustin
Posted By: MACK! In Response To: Responding to
David and Dustin (darkmike333) Hi Mike,
Again, thanks for reading my book. And welcome to the message board. I really
do appreciate that you look forward to Kabuki.
One of the best things about doing some non-Kabuki projects is that It really
makes me look forward to getting back into the groove of a regular Kabuki
series.
It is great to do a project that I do every aspect of, but after being
immersed in it for a long time, I tend to think that it would be nice to do a
collaboritive project (ala Scarab, and both DD stories), then after a
collaboritive project I tend to look forward to the one man show project again.
As soon as I get into the groove on one way of working I tend to like to flex
different muscles and try another approach and vice versa. I think I probably
just need to work in this kind of cycle to keep everything fresh. Constant
change.
Speaking of which, I do have the next three Kabuki storylines written. And it
is very interesting to see how much Kabuki changes and how different some of the
future stories will be compared to some of the earlier ones. Based on these
upcoming stories, I think that all of these books collectively will really feel
like sort of a biography of all the different eras in one person's life.
Warmest regards,
David

: at actually
getting a response back from you , Mr.
: Mack , but I forgot I was dealing
with a creator who
: does care about the work he does ,and his audience.
: I meant no disrespect in any of my comments , it's just
: been
frustrating going into a store and never seeing
: any new Kabuki comics .
Yet , I should have known
: you'd probably feel the same way. Understand ,
I've
: read comics since I was just a tyke of 2 years ( I'm
: 29 now )
and I do still collect quite a bit of
: mainstream stuff. Of course I have
almost a full run
: of the new Daredevil , superb work. But when I first
: came across Kabuki a few years ago , it was my 1st
: real intro to
what comics COULD be , excellent ,
: moving , intelligent stories that
showed violence when
: necessary , not gratuitously. And the
:
art...breathtaking stuff...I don't think I picked up
: that 1st book , I
think it jumped into my hands on its
: own ! Hunting down the Caliber stuff
became this fun
: mission I had set for myself , and I've enjoyed every
: minute. One day I hope to have found the few remaining
: books I need
.
: If you will
, think of it more as concern ...for a
: body of work I've really grown to
care about. And a
: little impatience thrown in ...
: to read your
comments in a book like David's. I enjoy
: seeing how much his stuff has
touched others and I
: understand what you're saying . Hopefully you kinda
: see my point , also. Well, moreso in THIS post than
: the last ,
anyways.
: 1st time
checking out the site ( I'm new to the
: computer world , oy ! )but not my
last. Mr. Mack , I
: love your work and I know you do also. Stay well and
: I'll be on the lookout for the Scarab ish and DD as
: well .
