Okay, I want to talk about LOST PROJECTS of mine. Stuff I've worked on or teased in the past and it just sorta disappeared. There are lots of projects on my plate right now. (Starslam 3, Pleasant Life 2, Porn Store Tell All, Short Story/Poem book, Erotica Shorts/Patreon, Horror Anthology) and I am hoping by late next year these things will all be done and out. Thats my goal. But along the way I've started projects and had them stop for whatever reason or another. I thought I'd share a bit of history with them and whats the "latest" news on them... if there is any news! Longtime fans might remember me discussing these. But for newbies, this is all new info. So you can see how busy I've been over the years with various projects. Let's run down these long lost gems and see whats up with them!
ANNA POCALYPSE 2!
History: After the tradebook for Anna Pocalypse was released in 2011, I immediately announced and started working on a sequel. It hasn't been released yet!
Current Status: On Hold. I have about 65 pages done for it. But it takes a lot out of me to do this type of book. Its so dark and full of gun play (not my strength) and I also lost confidence in my coloring skills that I just got burned out on the project. Plus at the same time, Starslam took off and became more successful, so I shelved this book and continued working on Starslam books. But I would like to finish this project someday. Maybe after the current books I have promised are done and out. I don't like unfinished business! Plus the story is too good not to be an official part of the "canon" on her story. It really is amped up to 11. Anna is a brutal killing machine. Lots of blood and gore in this book. I would like to re-work some of the pages I already have done for it and make it the best I can possibly do.
Outlook: Probable... after 2017.
THE OUTCAST!
History: While doing the final Pleasant Life trade, Adam was working on this story about a goth girl who can channel and control the manifestations of ghosts and make them do her bidding.
Current Status: Shelved. I was into this story big time and it was going to be my next launch title after Pleasant Life. But I let it get away from me. I have about 90 pages done on it. No shit. Another 100 or so and it would be a complete project. Unfortunately, other things have come out that share the same title or theme and it would need to be reworked to not be confused with or by the other things. It is possible and I do love the story... but it would need some work to get it back to a workable state. Also some of the pages would have to be redone and some characters changed. The story got too broad for my original tastes. I'd have to simplify it and make it easier to finish. Its doable but its not on my radar as a possibility right now. But maybe some day.
Outlook: Who knows... 2018 at the EARLIEST.
LINGERIE PARTY MASSACRE!
History: Announced and started on after Pleasant Life ended, I got about 5 pages into this and aborted it for work on Anna Pocalypse.
Current Status: On Hold for the moment but will come out in some form in the next couple years as part of my new horror anthology movement. I have other horror stories taking the front seat at the moment but once all that is done, I will definitely give this one some attention. The title alone makes it BEG to be finished!
Outlook: Probable... after 2017. Or part of a Horror Anthology.
WISE INTELLIGENCE!
History: Writer Ryan McLelland met Adam after reviewing Pleasant Life for Newsarama. They then collaborated on this mini series of comics about college students/frat boys growing up. Issue #1-2 came out but the rest didn't!
Current Status: Finished, but needs to be relaunched. All the art is done and it is quite possible that Adam and Ryan might put all the work together, plus a bunch of mini things from other artists (including a pinup by Stranger in Paradise's Terry Moore) and release it as one big awesome anthology. They are talking about it.
Here are some more pages:
A recent discussion on Facebook has generated some interest in the book and getting it completed and finally released. A Kickstarter may happen and get Adam's long lost tradebook out once and for all!
Outlook: Hopeful for a late 2016/Early 2017 release!

So there you have some updates on some long lost comics I have done in the past. Hopefully they will see the light of day someday. I do have a few others I coulda talked about but nothing to show for them yet. File under: Someday.... before I get too old... or dead.
