Okay, here we go!

"A few months back, I sat down and spent a week and a half cranking out a three issue, open ended mini-series that had been bothering me for awhile (it became part of my NaNoWriMo wordcount, actually). A couple weeks of wildly intense revisions came about afterwards and then I went out and found an artist for it (over on Digital Webbing). In the intervening months, he did all the character designs for the entire series and the first sixteen sequential pages (the first six of which I've got). I was pleased beyond belief and then...

He dropped out on me without warning.

After I got done shaking my fist at the heavens and cursing my bad luck (which has ironically turned inordinately good since then), I decided to take the opportunity afforded me by the artist's drop-out to start another round of revisions to tighten up anything that's not perfect.

That's where you guys come in. I trust you to be brutal. Tell me what you like about it. What you don't like. What bugs the hell out of you. What could be improved. What you'd like to see if you picked this up in a comic shop. What works, what doesn't and why. Does it make you want to keep turning pages? Is there anywhere that it drags? Be honest.

All I ask is that you don't try to make me cry.

Before we get started, I give you: The Quick and Dirty Pitch.

The main character at the center of Discordia, Laura Johnson, is part Catwoman, part Buffy with a side of Xena and some Ash J. Williams sprinkles on top. A cat burglar at the beginning of the series, she unwittingly winds up with the highly destructive, near uncontrollable powers of an ancient Greek goddess and gets in way over her head as a result. Her only guide through this life altering event is the mysterious Caretaker, who will help her understand what's happening to her as well as the horrors she's likely to face because of her new divine gift. The series has elements of both mythology (ranging from the River Styx to Hellhounds) and traditional horror (zombies and werewolves), blended together into a fast paced, fun romp.

The first three issues can either stand alone as a single mini-series, or as the opening arc to an ongoing series of minis. If it became ongoing, there would be more in depth looks at the characters, whereas now there are only little glimpses of what makes these people tick. Hopefully, those glimpses are enough to make the audience want to know more about them...

(Because frankly, I have the second mini in the planning stages already and dammit, I like the characters, even if nobody else does.)

And now that I'm done yakking, behold! Discordia: The Unraveling, #1-3.

(Seriously. Comment and critique is love, guys. If I can't get it from you, who can I get it from?)"
