They were one of the first to use this medium/forum for comic reviews and no one else has the production value. Trust me on that.<br />
<br />
As always, I thank them for sticking with me on my journey from a promising comic artist to my leaving this industry. I implore you to try new creators and projects, you never know who's going to be the next important creative visionary. You may be pleasantly surprised at the remarkable stories that are being told out there, by people who aren't able to generate the appropriate audience necessary to continue on future endeavors.<br />

I've pretty much fallen off the social network grid, even with close friends. So where the heck have I been for nearly a year!?<br />
<br />
3 major factors have delayed any update with regards to this blog:<br />
<br />
1. New job: I've been working at this awesome design firm for nearly a year. Creatively it has been a dream but I'm pretty tapped out by end of day, so I haven't been working on much at home.<br />
<br />
2. Bought a house. Most weekends have been dedicated to major yard work, while the weather has been good, and future weekends will be painting, painting and more painting. In all honesty, I'll take a day of hard work around this house than living in the apartments! LOL<br />
<br />
3. Wedding plans. Anytime I do have for design work has been primarily directed to the Save the Dates (see below) and upcoming invitation concepts.<br />
<br />
Please note that I will be doing NYCC this year, (was able to piggy-back onto another person's table) and as part of my "Get these damn comics out of my house" program will be selling remaining copies of AKA for only $5!! That's right, 128 page graphic novel for merely $5!. Once I have the table info, I'll relay it here. This will be my only show (except for the Trenton Punk Rock Flea Market in Novemeber). In fact, I will be phasing out conventions entirely after this year. So grab a copy of AKA while you can!<br />
<br />
As of now, I don't have any comic projects in the works. Though I'd like to put out a web series in upcoming years. Just reading and researching some concepts.<br />
<br />
So here are a few images from work (with permission) I can share. Wish I could show so much more. In adddition, below those are the Save the Dates (in 3D; get your glasses out!) and a recent Rider University illustration.<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by!<br />

<br />
It's been a while since I've updated this site. So what's the good news? We successfully raise the necessary funds for the prequel, A.K.A: One in the Chamber. Many thanks to our backers for that!<br />
<br />
So now what?<br />
<br />
I've been asking myself that question and to be honest, I'm on the fence as to my future in this industry. Unfortunately all the fun and excitement of creating comics gets blunged to death by the business aspects of such an endeavor. Making comics (in the business sense) is like discovering Santa isn't real. Once you've gone through the ringer of producing a printed book, all the magic is gone and you realize anyone can do this. I can see why top professional artists and writers still love this medium, they don't have to deal with any of the birthing process. LOL<br />
<br />
I have a book I wanted to do. I wrote a first draft (150 pages) and have character designs but not the drive to move the project forward. It's been sitting on my art desk for over 6 months and will very well be my last book.<br />
<br />
A lot of this decision is born out of frustration; dealing with printers, customs, and costs. In addition, I started a new day job last October that I absolutely love and fulfills my creative needs.<br />
<br />
So my dilemma is quite simple:<br />
<br />
<b>comics = lose of time and $ with little praise</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>new day job = draw cartoons, lots of praise and make $</b><br />
<br />
At the moment, I just don't love comics and after 15+ years of trying, I hope to find that love again.<br />
<br />
Thank you, my small band of loyal fans, for all your love and support. Hopefully I'll return to the stage.Rob Reilly is ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11112475018940714852noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35468120.post-84621186769894120342012-10-05T17:42:00.000-07:002012-10-05T17:42:03.210-07:00AKA: One in the Chamber & NYCC 2012Our <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/765710046/aka-one-in-the-chamber" target="_blank">Kickstarter campaign for the AKA Prequel</a> has gone live as of today.<br />
<br />
Here's a quick video that explains everything we're trying to accomplish with this new goal:<br />

<br />
<br />
If you missed out on the first campaign, for the graphic novel or pledged previously Steven and I are proud to announce the variety of AKA merch that has been made available as well as exclusive variant covers by <a href="http://www.mikehawthorneart.com/" target="_blank">Mike Hawthorne</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/takisoma" target="_blank">Taki Soma</a> and <a href="http://michaeloeming.com/" target="_blank">Mike Oeming</a>. These will <b><u>ONLY</u></b> be available for our backer! So be sure to visit our Kickstarter campaign and get in on the action before the 30 days are up.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In addition, Steve and I plan on donating <b>40% </b>of any additional funds raised after reaching our goal to<br />
<a href="http://www.ringoscholarship.com/" target="_blank">The Ringo Scholarship</a>. Unfortunately, due to Kickstarter's strict policies we aren't able to make mention on our campaign page but have found a loop hole where there was no mention of restriction on social media sites. Arrangements have been made with the proper people in Ringo's camp. So please help out this wonderful educational opportunity that will no only honor a brilliant cartoonist, <b>Mike Wieringo</b> but help assure the future and betterment of the comic industry.<br />
<br />
As a separate reminder, Steve and I will be at NYCC this upcoming week selling, signing and sketching. Stop by for a chat!! Thanks!<br />

<br />
In case you missed it on Twitter and Facebook. I was asked to participate in the Aurora Rise Benefit. It was great to be able to help raise money for those unfortunate families. I was asked to do a Superman piece, since he's my number #1 requested character. I didn't think about it for for longer and really wanted to do a "Drunk" Superman from Superman III!! lol<br />
<br />
Here's little of the process and the final piece that went to auction:<br />

<br />
So I'm sure you're aware of the big change with GraphicLy, which was announced this past week. In case you missed it, here's a <a href="http://www.comicsalliance.com/2012/04/05/graphicly-switches-from-digital-comics-distribution-to-ebooks-pr/">link for an article.</a><br />
<br />
Steve and I have been discussing this for the past two days. I have no idea what this means for AKA as a digital book. In fact, GraphicLy had only informed us moments before the press release hit the web. Honestly, having no information to draw from, I really don't understand why they decided to make this change. Our understanding is this: if you already had the app for your various devices, you will still be able to view your collection and possibly purchase new books (via their website only). If you've never downloaded the app, it's no longer available. From what we gathered, GraphicLy was #2 in the marketplace and either weren't making enough $ or what they thought they should be making on the sales of digital comics compared to Comixology.<br />
<br />
So what, settle for being #105 in a vast marketplace rather than #2 in a specific one? To me it makes no sense. GraphicLy's very appeal was that they DID take independent creator-owned projects where Comixology does not (or they are very picky). The fact they they are so versatile is what I would think would make them so appealing. At any rate, this to me is very much like the NetFlix change, which effectively pissed off customers and a later reversal of that decision from the backlash. <br />
<br />
I hope that GraphicLy hasn't shot themselves in the foot. I really liked them and their professionalism thus far. I just wish that this decision was made collectively as a community (both customers and creators).<br />
<br />
So as far as I know, AKA is still available through their website but I'm not certain if you can only read it via your computer (if you don't already own the app) or if there is a way to read it on your device. Once I have more info, I'll be sharing it.<br />

Though it's still a work in progress, waiting for a few more quotes to put on there, it's pretty much done. It would be criminal for me not to mention this, so Steve and I discussed what the cover idea should be. Once we agreed on a wrap around with all the villians on one side and Truelove & Doyle on the other (waiting for disaster) I started penciling. Actually all these characters were drawn separately and photoshopped in together. Then I looked it over and realized that this was very similar to an image my friend, Mike Hawthorne drew. It was somewhere in the recesses of my mind and must have crept into my design process. At any rate, Mike was super cool and said "Go with it". One should always make sure, if something is similar, not to step on the toes of others. It's called RESPECT.<br /><br /> So without further adieu (pencils to final design):<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8rfW13flM0nHI7OkCmCfmDgqYwtgoluel8nf2PUW6miKOi8YxNBkSDKqt7gEiufUgYQwycgLpOXF722bnCX5t8UALbPXjZSms7j4Dakxx3RuaOIrWYQKztmQvfoJqq5w7rHyJ/s1600/web_GN_pencils.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 91px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8rfW13flM0nHI7OkCmCfmDgqYwtgoluel8nf2PUW6miKOi8YxNBkSDKqt7gEiufUgYQwycgLpOXF722bnCX5t8UALbPXjZSms7j4Dakxx3RuaOIrWYQKztmQvfoJqq5w7rHyJ/s320/web_GN_pencils.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5706157594786994514" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdisF1aKB61gskkWkIlP5jLXH9V1kZNUHn35BiVUlfqNhCpn92KoTWE8dMBuwp1C3eLikYP-J0dOD4TVfQsK1WJnnzLR115vK0F52ok6w4wKz7X7pECApuNRsfEoMF4SX-uLxP/s1600/GN_inks_web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 246px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdisF1aKB61gskkWkIlP5jLXH9V1kZNUHn35BiVUlfqNhCpn92KoTWE8dMBuwp1C3eLikYP-J0dOD4TVfQsK1WJnnzLR115vK0F52ok6w4wKz7X7pECApuNRsfEoMF4SX-uLxP/s320/GN_inks_web.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5706157590731146946" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-oJDcpbogv8_arZ0jvxH_2VDOu5ZVbAlLn3xtdTzAXQJ_K36UoSS72W8U8DU_ouJ-h6yCetlF601VEsMp4zhJyINXYqEQQ0fDUsZkXVIN77kyZbaDPhQVpT9yDvdZupWVjQmM/s1600/GN_Layout.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 241px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-oJDcpbogv8_arZ0jvxH_2VDOu5ZVbAlLn3xtdTzAXQJ_K36UoSS72W8U8DU_ouJ-h6yCetlF601VEsMp4zhJyINXYqEQQ0fDUsZkXVIN77kyZbaDPhQVpT9yDvdZupWVjQmM/s320/GN_Layout.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5706157585062255730" /></a>Rob Reilly is ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11112475018940714852noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35468120.post-32289373902744117462012-02-05T12:49:00.000-08:002012-02-07T17:26:04.921-08:00Issue two.AKA is full steam ahead, head out to <a href="http://graphicly.com/skatoon-productions/a-k-a/">GraphicLy</a> to continue the blood soaked, bullet whizzing Grindhouse Experience!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG9mH356oxupIHKhrMfVMVZBsSSPiPQIOqIrLjHyQDTj-6KpVCg8T8usKwRh8OvZQYTEu3l1r33f7UibTVjv778pCmOzjvkLXMYYQKGRlDfwhNfy5skMWEGy2xfw5q3VSzu6lp/s1600/AKA2_Cover.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 208px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG9mH356oxupIHKhrMfVMVZBsSSPiPQIOqIrLjHyQDTj-6KpVCg8T8usKwRh8OvZQYTEu3l1r33f7UibTVjv778pCmOzjvkLXMYYQKGRlDfwhNfy5skMWEGy2xfw5q3VSzu6lp/s320/AKA2_Cover.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705757428418853282" /></a><br /><br />Here's some reviews thus far of AKA:<br /><br />• <a href="http://comicsforge.com/2012/02/a-k-a-1/">Comics Forge</a><br />• <a href="http://www.brokenfrontier.com/reviews/p/detail/a-k-a-1">Broken Frontier</a>Rob Reilly is ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11112475018940714852noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35468120.post-76156972229748803482012-01-31T17:43:00.000-08:002012-01-31T17:48:59.410-08:00Now.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgcbjTDoUPwwGOaXkL2Kqf2YomuaLirMlPJTbTXYdFVxIZNHnQYTY2yyu_wf88YddYkB9a7GmlWZ2zlYWNXXW_f6qcGtkCAwCULhcx62erLXXGoKRz5uYacccQqhJTkGW_LOHU/s1600/AKA_CVR_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 211px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgcbjTDoUPwwGOaXkL2Kqf2YomuaLirMlPJTbTXYdFVxIZNHnQYTY2yyu_wf88YddYkB9a7GmlWZ2zlYWNXXW_f6qcGtkCAwCULhcx62erLXXGoKRz5uYacccQqhJTkGW_LOHU/s320/AKA_CVR_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703977217139493858" /></a><br /><br />That's right!

Life, both professional and personal has been hectic. <br /><br />So, what's new?<br /><br />Well we've successfully provided the first 2 issues to our Kickstarter backers (via our campaign page) including the fake trailers! Woot!<br /><br />Issue 3 is being lettered and issue 4 will be finished with the colors this week. So, basically we're on schedule. In addition, Steve and I were able to pen a deal with <a href="http://graphicly.com/">GraphicLy</a> to have AKA available in a digital format for all your smart phones, iPads and Nooks in about a month or so. We'll be doing a monthly release.<br /><br />We are planning on doing a print-run, most likely small. But that will not happen until the issues are completely finished.<br /><br />In addition, before I post any artwork. I am now being represented by <a href="http://www.killingthegrizzly.com/">Killing the Grizzly</a>, a literary agency. Hopefully, I'll be able to sell my services or projects to studios and publishers with ease.<br /><br />Lastly, I worked on a 8 page short story for <a href="http://www.atomic-robo.com/">Atomic Robo</a>, which features loosely based characters from Team Fortress 2! Don't have a release date for this just yet, but I hope to soon.<br /><br />Keep checking back, I hope to have more artwork and updates soon. Thanks!<br /><br />Click images to enlarge.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1drbyZhrih6C0PtzRewMrr4KoyE4K3LQF44YpZMextUSzynkwp30QeL3a-dRVkGScdqJLg7tMCtvdaNObm2DtRBG3Rdy8jub_l_EG9a-beGw8n85YLmQD5mI7MXmkIOqIhhw2/s1600/Reilly_AR5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 206px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1drbyZhrih6C0PtzRewMrr4KoyE4K3LQF44YpZMextUSzynkwp30QeL3a-dRVkGScdqJLg7tMCtvdaNObm2DtRBG3Rdy8jub_l_EG9a-beGw8n85YLmQD5mI7MXmkIOqIhhw2/s320/Reilly_AR5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683606144392766386" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHpk0rc2VMSR35rM0QFH76P3gC7rBNBJulQoFlQtW5pe5l9M2l_KcEPdg-81SqUZU5-LXUroAnRZuaT255TwV2VRx7W8D-51IBfLNHHvEVEa0kgtk1w_X91cJ9cfCzKq4UPWTj/s1600/Reilly_AR8.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 206px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHpk0rc2VMSR35rM0QFH76P3gC7rBNBJulQoFlQtW5pe5l9M2l_KcEPdg-81SqUZU5-LXUroAnRZuaT255TwV2VRx7W8D-51IBfLNHHvEVEa0kgtk1w_X91cJ9cfCzKq4UPWTj/s320/Reilly_AR8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683606140603045970" /></a>Rob Reilly is ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11112475018940714852noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35468120.post-22020523570815635032011-10-17T17:04:00.000-07:002011-10-17T17:42:55.346-07:00NYCC 2011: Aftermath!Exhausted.<br /><br />That pretty much sums up the juggernaut that is New York Comic Con. Thankfully, I was able to spend those 4 days with my good friends, Steven Walters (co-creator of AKA), John Broglia (artist on God Complex) and Michael Sarrao (creator of Unmasked). Honestly, I never laughed so hard and for so long than with this guy! They ROCK!<br /><br />I cannot thank those who stopped by the table for a chat, commissioning a sketch, buying a sketchbook(s) or video game cartridge(s). What was really cool, was to meet many Kickstarter backers in person! It's nice to put a face to a name. <br /><br />So before I throw up the sketches from the show, just want to share some news:<br /><br />1. I will be doing an 8 page short story for my friends, Scott and Brian, book Atomic Robo. You might have heard of it ;)<br /><br />2. Just prior to packing for NYCC, we released the first issue of AKA to our Kickstarter backers, with issue 2 nipping at it's heels.<br /><br />3. Issue 3 of AKA is completely colored and is being lettered a the moment. Meanwhile, issue 4 is starting to be colored.<br /><br />What does that mean for those awaiting the entire series release?!?!<br /><br />Please note that Steve and I are trying to lock down a digital as well as a print release through some companies. Contracts are being read as I type this. ONce an agreement is in play, I can make a future UPDATE. Until then, please know that if you invested in AKA through Kickstarter, you will continue to get the issues first!<br /><br />And finally:<br /><br />5. I have started working on series of new graphic novels. I will being doing the entire 3 book series (100 pgs/book) on my own (writing, artwork, coloring and lettering). Currently, I have an outline for the first book as well as a few character designs. Just a few minor tweeks and I will be able to finalize designs and begin work. I predict that it take one year to write and draw.
