In Response To: A Few ?'s For Mack (Mike B)

Hi Mike,

Happy Holidays to you too.

Thanks for reading my books.
Below, some responses to your questions...

: Now I don't know if this will be revealed in future
: issues of Kabuki or not but I was somewhat confused by
: Oni/Kai in Circle of Blood. What was Oni's role in the
: Noh? Was there an original Oni that Kai had killed and
: secretly replaced? I know Kai was there to plot the
: deaths of all of his competition but will it ever be
: revealed how he infiltrated the Noh? I understand if
: you don't want to reveal this info quite yet.

-----The implication was that there probably was another person who originally wore the Oni mask, and at some point Kai infiltrated the Noh and "replaced" him.

I do have some future stories with Kai planned chronicalling his earlier life. It is possible that some of those stories could touch on or drop hints to the mechanics behind his infiltration of the Noh.

: Will there be Oni and/or Dove masks made?

-----These are not on the immediate plans/schedule, but if there proves to be a huge demand for these two masks, I would be happy to accomodate that. I think that Moore Creations would make them, IF they were sure that the masks would sell well. But at the moment, I don't think they believe that these two masks would sell as well, or be as popular as the current eight Noh Masks.

But if they feel the demand, I think they would do it.

: Just got my info packet on the Megacon in the mail and I

----Cool, I hope I get one. I'd like to see how they are promoting it.

: can't wait to go. In it they only profiled four people
: in the comic industry who were attending, it was nice
: to see that you were one of them. I've read how you've
: done Kabuki panels at past conventions. Any plans to
: hold one at the Megacon?

----That is nice to hear. Glad they profiled me in the packet. Looks like they are doing some heavy promotion for it. I'm really looking forward to attending in February.

I think that they did say that I would be doing one panel. It would be nice if it is a "Spotlight on Kabuki" or "Spotlight on Mack" type panel like the ones I do at Mid-Ohio Con.

I really like to let the questions from the audience drive the panel, and do a back and forth with everyone.

: Finally before I go, just wondering if there is any news
: on the Kabuki movie front? Anything? Just a lil scrap
: or tidbit of info?

----wellllll, I did just close a deal for Kabuki as a LIVE ACTION film. Other than that, I'm not supposed to say anything other than my own work for FOX (which besides writing the treatment is listed ast "Visual Designer, Creative Consultant, and Co-Producer").

Would love to say more (especially who they are mentioning for the lead role!!!), but I should wait until that stuff is official and let them announce it first.

Thanks for your interest, and for reading my books,

David
