Quote:Yup, I can believe it. Comics are having a hard time anyway, and books NOT being published by the Big Two can easily get ignored. I'd love to see the comic catch on, though, so the shops would have to go to "re-orders" (can you be re-ordering if you didn't order in the first place?).Originally Posted by Dark One
Would you believe that the Semi-LCS hadn't heard of it? I went in for my semi-yearly visit and asked about it. Got a blank stare from the guy at the counter... -
Quote:There are lots of online comic sellers (most of which offer pretty substantial discounts, considerably lower than cover price). I believe you can also buy individual issues from Top Cow. If all else fails, I'll pick one up at my LCS (as Top Cow doesn't usually send me contributor copies) and mail it to you. Take that, Bendis!Originally Posted by Teldon
Serious question (for once). I do not have a local comics shop and I really cant drive the two hours to the nearest one. Will there be a way for me to pay for a download of the comic or mail order it?

Oops.
I'd suggest every power by accompanied by "Buy the Twilight Guardian mini-series, coming in January from Top Cow!"
It shows that your hero is a caring individual, as he's going to send the villains to jail, but he's suggesting some reading matter that will make it almost worth the trip... -
It may sound dumb, but I quite literally stop and salute Cyrus every time I use that train station. I get a little misty-eyed, too.

Ironic in that I have been accused of having the biggest ego on the forums, and (and I quote here) "for the least reason". However, let it be known that I will not object to having my biography written... as long as it is written by either Steelclaw, Troy Hickman, Dr. Aeon, or The Television.

I imagine he kinda like a cross between Jack from Lost and Abe Simpson...

Quote:It'll be a fantastic bootleg, too, indistiguishable from the real thing.Originally Posted by sleestack
Go to your local comic book store in January. They will sell you a bootleg for $3 or $4.

I'm just a very casual player and confess that I have not been game too often this past year as my playing partner and I have split ways. Nonetheless, Paragon City is one of my homes away home and Troy Hickman is still my idol.

And you only call me "idol" because I look just like Adam Lambert.
If he really let himself go. -
CoH's own Amber Love just posted an interview with me about Twilight Guardian, comics, and a bunch of other goofiness. Check it out here.

Sure. You can download it from www.kisstroyhickmansbackside.com -
For those of you who do "the Facebook," I've helped Twilight Guardian start her own fan page there. Read her journal entries, ask her questions, submit your fan art, check out her Crimestopper Tips, and become a member of the Midnight Squad! Now get going before it gets dark and she has to leave...
Time to go -
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
Now, time to insert a meat thermometer in the turkey without buying it dinner first... -

Can I take a crack at the trailer for the movie?
All right, Ms. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up... -
Quote:Maybe we can get Fillion for the TG movie they're supposedly making...Originally Posted by Dark One
Is it just me or does the guy in green look a lot like Nathan Fillion? And the guy on the left reminds me a little of Turk...

In case you're interested (if not, go about your business, citizen), here's the cover for Twilight Guardian #2, which will be solicited in the new Previews:

And I will accept the nomination and seconding, assuming that I get to kiss some babies during the campaign.

Quote:When you read Twilight Guardian #2 in February, you'll see how close to the truth you are.Originally Posted by sleestack
This is just a viral marketing campaign started by Troy Hickman to promote his upcoming mini-series "Twilight Guardian", available starting in January at all retailers of fine comic books.
I've become close to a lot of the RLSH people in the last couple of years, by the way, mainly BECAUSE of TG, and they actually do a lot of good. Because it's rare that they're around when a crime occurs, they tend to do a lot of public service stuff like giving food and toiletries to the homeless, walking women to their cars, helping stranded motorists, etc. -
Quote:I wonder if there's any crossover audience from sparkly vampires to Twilight Guardian...Originally Posted by Klatteja
Facebook? Anyone doing a search for Twilight Facebook pages (durn sparkly wannabe vamps!) might come across Twilight Guardian as well.
Or maybe not, if there's like eleventy-billion Twilight FB pages out there...

Quote:I've never heard of that. I'll look into it.Originally Posted by Dark One
Have you ever considered Project Wonderful ads? See 'em all the time on webcomics that I read. No idea how much they cost though.
-
So I'm looking for some good ways to promote the comic cheaply. Anyone have any ideas?

How bout bacon, cheddar and fried chicken with waffles for buns and waffle fries on the side?
-
Quote:This is why fried chicken is so often eaten with biscuits and honey.Originally Posted by Dark One
Something else to try...I noticed the fried chicken in Troy's thread, but since that is meandering wildly off-topic (par for the course 'round here...), thought I'd say it here...
Fried chicken drizzled with honey.
You heard me right. Honey on fried chicken. The sweet of the honey is oh so good of a counterpoint to the salty and greasy of the chicken. The trick is not too much, such that the chicken becomes sticky, but rather just enough so that you get some with a bite. -
Quote:You know, you can make some tasty sandwiches with waffles...Originally Posted by MentalMaden
The first reason I came in this thread was to offer sandwiches. Then Hickman got all difficult and picky about them. Then I cried and ate an entire box of waffles.
