I read the first TPB this week and thought this was completely awesome. I think I'm gonna roll out and grab the second two trades.

Anyone else into this?

So, I read a Tom Scioli interview several nights ago. It was both inspiring and deflating.

The inspiring part is that he holds down a full-time job and does all his comics, including Godland, in his spare time -- that's pretty darn amazing and makes me feel that if he can hack, I might be able to as well.

The deflating part is that despite having a well-known comics by Image -- it wasn't enough to launch a comics career or even pay for Godland to continue. He thought there would be a bigger market for Kirby inspired cosmic adventures... and there wasn't. Yikes, that's the kinda stuff I'd want to do.

Alas. The final Godland trade should be hitting shelves in the next few weeks.

I have been reading it and loving it. But I'm well aware that it's very much an acquired taste. It's the only comic booky thing I read, now.
