Hey, Everyone! Issue #6 came out in Comic Book Stores today! They look beautiful! I think when it comes to art, it's the prettiest one yet, with all the fog and early morning effects. The colors look great.

It's not a surprise anymore that Jenny Frison did another beautiful variant cover, but I'll give her a shout out none the less! When I read through this issue (at every red light on my drive home) I noticed something funny: You can actually read the small text on Page 7, where Knowlton is giving Frederick instructions. I'm glad that I had actually written something legitimate in there! What he says makes me laugh! Enjoy your copies, and buy an extra set for your friends! :)

It's that wonderful time of month... when The Dreamer comic book hits the stands! Issue #5 came out today in comic shops everywhere, so don't forget to pick up your copy!!

I was relieved: no giant advertisements with Eliza Dushku's face on them, right in the middle of the story this time. The double page splash looks great in print! So does Nathan's face meeting Alan's fist.

Also, don't forget to pre-order Issue #6, either online or at your local comic book shop! Make sure you get your copy! The order code is: MAR094338, the publisher is IDW. It comes out in May, not next month in April since, well, the last six pages don't exist yet. Issue #6 is the last comic that will be in print for awhile, since it's the last issue of the first graphic novel.

I apologize that I've been negligent with MySpace. I get a lot more traffic on other sites, and have sort of neglected updating this one. Which I realized with humiliation when I saw that my last status update had said, "Lora just bought her copy of The Dreamer #2!" aaaaand, well, the Dreamer # 4 came out several weeks ago.

If you don't have a local comic book shop, you can order The Dreamer online, and please do so! Issues 1-4 are out in print, #5 should be out in a few weeks, and well, Issue #6 & I are currently running a sprint to the finishline over at my drawing desk.

Several places to shop online:

IDW Store: You can order it straight from the publisher, via the IDW Publishing website.

Heavy Ink: Heavy Ink. You can preorder all six issues on there. These guys have been so great to me.

TFAW: TFAW.com. I think that you can order internationally through these guys.

Thanks everyone. Catch up with you soon....!

Yup that's right! I just got back from my local comic book shop, and guess what they had waiting for me? These pretty babies, from IDW Publishing:

Love love love that pink logo by Jenny Frison!

Official Press Release here as well as a ton of other places I've seen it floating across the webniverse. If you pre-ordered your copies, be sure to pick them up! I promise you, it's so much more beautiful in print!! I've done my art since issue 1 with the intent of getting it published, and it really is a sad moment each Friday when I upload my pages all small and saved in web colors, and half the detail disappears.

Happy reading! Spread the word! Buy copies for your friends! Huzzah!!

The second issue of The Dreamer is now available for pre-order! If you ordered Issue 1, be sure to order 2! The Diamond order code is: OCT08 4246



All you need to do is go to a place where they sell comic books, and ask them to order you in a copy of The Dreamer 2, by IDW Publishing. You can give them the order code above. The book will be out in December, but you have to order it now!

Why is this important? First, because you all want your print copies of The Dreamer, right? You've been asking me about it forever. :) It's also important because the pre-sells are what my publisher will look at when they decide whether or not they would like to keep offering The Dreamer to you in print. Right now, pre-ordering my comic is the most important thing you can do to support me and The Dreamer. Issue 2 sells are traditionally much lower than 1 sells, so I really need you all to go out there and order a copy for your self, your friends, and tell your comic shop to carry it too! The book will only cost you $3.99!

Issue 2 will have two covers to pick from, just like the first issue did. If you're a collector, you might want to order two copies. The variant cover by Jenny Frison is beautiful.

Thanks everyone!!

I just found out that The Dreamer won at least two of the categories we were nominated in at the Drunk Duck Awards!! We won both Best Romantic Comic and Best Digital Art!! Huzzah!

They are releasing the rest of the winners daily until the Friday, so if we win any of the other three categories we are nominated in, I'll let you know!

One of my friends just sent me an email that contained this picture and little more:

I guess the latest issue of Previews is out. :)

If you're not a comic book person, Previews is the catalogue that lists all the comics for sell that month. It appears that the time to order your printed copy of The Dreamer from IDW Publishing is now! If you're not a comic shop regular, here's what you do: find a comic shop in your yellow pages, bring a friend wearing a Spiderman or Dark Knight tee shirt so you don't have to go alone, and ask the guy who runs the store if they'll order you a copy of the book. It's that easy.

The comic is listed under IDW Publishing, on page 291 of the Previews Catalogue. And the order code that they use is: SEPT084131E

It's only $3.99 and there's no annoying shipping fees like if you buy stuff off the net. It really is only four dollars. And you can choose from the sweet cover that Barb Jacobs and myself did (featured above) or you can pick the beautiful painted variant cover by Jenny Frison, or... feel free to buy both. :)
