HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: 3 STORY by MATT KINDT




3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man HC
By MATT KINDT

What would it be like to stand head and shoulders above everyone else -- and to keep growing? Unable to interact with a fragile world that isn't built to withstand your size? To live in a house that doesn't fit you anymore -- with a wife who doesn't either?

Craig Pressgang's life is well documented in his official CIA biography, Giant Man: Pillar of America, but the heroic picture it paints is only half the story. The continuous growth caused by Craig's strange medical condition brings a variety of problems as he becomes more isolated and unknowable. Told in three eras by three women with unique relationships with Craig, 3 Story follows his sad life from his birth to the present.

SWEET TOOTH: THE OFFICIAL BLOG LAUNCHES

ANNOUNCING SWEET TOOTH: THE OFFICIAL BLOG!

Tomorrow I will be launching a seperate, official blog for all things Sweet Tooth!

It will be your place to check out all the latest news and reviews on my new monthly Vertigo series, Sweet Tooth.

In addition, every month, on the day a new Issue comes out, I will post exclusive, never before seen pencils, inks, design and developmental work for that issue!

I will also be commissioning a bunch of my cartoonist friends to create Sweet Tooth inspired artwork, and posting it here along with reader sketches! That's right, if you send me any of your artwork depicting Sweet Tooth characters I will post it on the new blog as well.

I also miss the old letter columns in comics, so I will be using The Sweet Tooth blog to post your letters as well.

So check back tomorrow for the official launch, and details on the Top Secret Sweet Tooth Fan Club!

Sweet Tooth Promotional Offer Update

I seem to be getting a lot of the same questions thrown my way in regards to the Sweet Tooth 1 Sketch Promotion, so rather than respond to everyone individually, here we go...

1. I know it's impossible for U.S. and International readers to affix Canadian return postage, so just include $5 in the package along with a self addressed envelope, and I will use the money to affix the proper postage when I mail them back.

2. The sketches I will do will be quick head sketches of characters from Sweet Tooth. These are not full commissioned pieces, and I am not accepting character requests. As much as I'd like to do a fully realized piece for everyone, I just don't have the time.

3. There is no time limit on the offer, as long as you can find copied of #1, I'll be more than happy to sign them and send you a sketch. Also, many of you have asked about sending The Nobody as well, I'd be more than happy to sign those as well.

Thanks everyone, and thanks for supporting my work!
