irish46 0 Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Got mine yesterday but was soooooooo damned busy I couldn't sit down with it until late last night. I can't even begin to explain just how damned goosebump creating good this book looks in black and white. Jweb is correct it is totally off the charts freaking awesome just to look at....and read yet again! JMD3's sketch is just simply FANTASTIC (like he'd do anything less?) Thank you Jim for the great art work that makes this book just that much more damned special. I'll try and get mine scanned in soon! So besides the normal RAW perks, great friends, snappy dialog and informative postings,...er... along with some brain rotting postings... I now have an extra special RAW perk in the form of this book. Thanks guys for making them available to us...SWEEEEET! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AdminGuyX Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 I have to agree. It's a real breath of fresh air to see someone publish a black and white collection. I just love the book to pieces. Jim's sketch knocked it out of the park too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Once again Jim, Thank you for the fine, fine, fine piece of art work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gashead 0 Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Glad y'all like the sketches and the book!! I had tons of fun drawing the convict and friends again, the noir one was especially fun to do. I love the over sized trade in black and white, Tim and Tom did a super classy job with it. -cheers! --Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thomas Jane 0 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 awesome guys. we have a few hundred copies left here and we will be selling them at the RAW STORE that should be opening in the next 60 days. other than that, you can pick one up at the LONG BEACH COMIC CON, and possibly in NYC in OCTOBER! and we'll be soliciting through DIAMOND sometime soon. ALSO the COLOR VERSION of BAD PLANET will be seeing the light of day sometime before the end of the year. but these special books will NOT be printed again - once they're gone, they're gone! we might reprint other versions but this special limited edition will remain limited! so enjoy 'em guys. so happy to hear the positive feedback.

xNLx 0 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 If I only had one complaint about the book, and its so minor that its not really even a complaint... a dust jacket would have been groovy. After all the Dark Country dvd covers, I'm tempted to design one just to print out for myself. However, everything about the book is great. The printing was superb, and I even took the time to compare it to some of the single issues I have (cool to see how the sound effects were switched around just so slightly). I'm definitely buying up the colour version when it hits. Anyone know if there will be a hard cover? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rosella 0 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I've been waiting for the RAW store to open up. It's good to know the time-frame as to when it will be available. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tim Bradstreet 0 Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 See what you get when you tell the artist in question that he/she can do anything they want? THANKS Noeland for scanning and giving us all a peek! - YN Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MediumFan has one too but she's not at her home base currently. I'm sure she'll give us a looksee at her first opportunity. Also - I sent Kwiat a book originally intended for someone else. It had a partially completed Convict sketch in it by Jim D and myself. Honest mistake, I just chucked the wrong book in her package. She got a bonus!!! It was totally my bad and we hadn't personalized the sketch or anything so I told Kwiat that I'd be honored if she kept it. Maybe she'll throw us a scan. Please do so! - TB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This marks the third piece of original artwork I've gotten, and its definitely my favourite (right next to a page from My Demon Baby). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll devote more time to their relationship problems once the rest of the crap hitting the fan around here slows down. The partial sketch was unexpected and Tim is very gracious to let me keep it. I promise to share it as soon as I can get the wires to be nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Bradstreet 0 Posted September 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Can't wait to see it again Kwiat! You the rock solidest! Perhaps if your scanner sends yer PC a box of chocolates? - tb Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TJ Great news about the store coming online soon, TJ. Can't wait to see what other kinds of goodies you guys have. (Hopefully you'll have some of those wicked RAW t-shirts! ) I can't wait to see my books. Any more news about NYC, e.g. dates, screenings, appearances, etc.? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tim Bradstreet 0 Posted September 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Courtesy of Kwiat Skye - Here's the scan of the sketch in her book. It's rather light but you can just see a butterfly escaping the hand of the giant Phaedon Warrior. Pencils by Jim D, partial inks by TB - TB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xNLx 0 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 General thought in my mind, everyone that got a book got something really bloody special. To steal your phrase 'Street, these are all fuckin' scream! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I clicked on enough things and eventually the wired boxes talked to each other. No chocolate required. Just endeavouring to persevere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If that had been the case, I would have removed the dust jacket, so that it wouldn't have gotten messed up, and stuck it in a drawer somewhere. I like the simple elegance of the deathspider logo impressed into the cover of the book. (Black on black and more than 8 inches in diameter, for those who haven't seen it yet.) There may not be any 3D in the black & white hardbound, but you can run your fingers over the baby deathspider impression right there on the cover. The orangey/gold lettering on the spine of the book pops nice off the black as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
