Newsletter #41: Shooting Star
I never read my reviews unless they're good or bad or middling. Sorry, it's just my policy.
Well … Publisher’s Weekly reviewed the AFTERLIFT collection. They seemed to really like it, but, sadly … they only gave it one star.
I’m pretty down about it. I know my writing is BAD, I just didn’t think it was THAT bad. I’d like to say I’ll try harder to write better, but I think this is the best I can do, which clearly isn’t good enough.
YOU FUCKIN’ IDIOT
…oh. Okay, that’s, uh, MUCH better.
Hey! We got a starred review! Amazing! What a relief! From now on whenever I see that single star attached to a review of my work I will just assume it’s a rare and beautiful STARRED REVIEW!
Thanks, Spike!
YOU FUCKIN’ IDIOT
I may be stupid, but I sure do know how to promote!
STILLWATER 5 is out this week! Things get reeeeal explode-y this issue! If you like explode-y, safely run to and then safely enter your local comic shop to get it!
Also, there are, like, eight second printings of DAREDEVIL #25 out this week! Here’s Marco’s design sheet as a sweet variant!
I, uh, may have redacted some spoilers here and there.
TRULY A MASTER PROMOTER
Thank you!
Speaking of which, here I am talking DAREDEVIL and STILLWATER with the “gentlemen” of Geek Hard!
A nice time.
Which things so uncertain, I feel very grateful that I still have some comic jobs here and there and people who want to talk to me about them. I hope I can continue to have a career, even though I have totally blown my chance to write Sandman.
YOU FUCKIN’ IDIOT
‘Til next week!
Love,
Chip “Dream-y” Zdarsky
