thanks!! this was a particulary sad issue for me as it featured the death of Nightingale and Foxhound too.
and the week before Leopard and Seagull died, while seagull was so so to me I really liked Leopard so two weeks in a row, we had 2 deaths so thats 4 confirmed deaths and now Quarrel looks to be killed too! in this story!! and anyone that likes stinger drivers should check out this story too! I believe it will be the first appearance of a stinger driver in the comics ever! |

If they're going to go ahead and digitally colour these, I think they should also redo the lettering so I can 'actually read these.' Whatever they do to the original outlines makes the letters too thick and unlegible for me.

that was something I would love to do but the time it would take to do that LOL.
We arent actually doing anything at all to the letting, its like that in the scans that we have. These pages were scanned like 20 years after they were printed and originally they were printed on News paper type paper so after 20 years there was a lot of degredation on the papers and the lettering was really bad on some issues. This particular story had particulary bad scans and I spent as much time cleaning the art up as much as I did the coloring. took about 5 hours of cleaning the pages and then another 5-8 hours of coloring , just for one page not all the scans are this bad , but some just was. But thanks for pointing that out and recommending us to reletter them perhaps one day in the future when more time comes available we will do it. because basically your right, it would be better if we would, so it would be easier for all to read thanks for checking it out and giving the constructive criticism we appreciate it. this project is by the fans for the fans so we want to hear from you , good and bad! |

You utter swine, Jamar!
When I saw the thread title, I thought we were getting another travesty death in America's Elite. Keep up the good work. I always enjoyed the old Action Force stories. Far better than much of the modern offering that is out to shock rather than entertain. Any chance of seeing the backstory for the Baroness coloured soon? I do enjoy reading that one. That and School for Snakes are my favourite later stories. Would love to see The Black Major backstory coloured as well. My favourite character. |

hehehehehe ! LOL
I WOULD LOVE to do the Baroness story and the black major story, but sadly and I really do mean sadly we have NO one working on it now. there are soooo many stories that need to be colored and even though we had over 30 colorist help out on this project we still need more help as sooo many of these stories that need to be colored have no colorist working on them Were trying to finish up the current stories we have in the process right now and as soon as we get those done, the baroness is high on the list. So if anyone can help with coloring please contact me, we need more help!!! thanks for letting us know your enjoying them, it helps the colorist by knowing people are enjoying thier work I also love School of snakes too, that one was soo much fun to get colored great red shadow vs cobra action in that one. Im actually getting ready to print up these stories in a hard back ,professional done, (these colored issues) we been doing an issue every week for the last 40 weeks straight, and I just love having them in actual print form, ya its a little expensive but just worth it to me thanks again |
