MILK PRESS RELEASE #1
Spilled Milk, a new comic studio
and publishing company, officially opened its doors in February of 1996.
The goal of the company is to publish a comic that is entertaining and
yet thought provoking. The first title for Spilled Milk will be a four issue
mini-series called CiCi. Spilled
Milk was lucky to sign on Monte Moore to do all four painted covers and the
first one is definitely a wrap-around. Another
professional to join the crew is former Image inker Chuck Gibson, who is known
for his attention to detail. Industry
powerhouse Digital Chameleon was hired to work on the colors for the first
issue. Zak Hennessey took some time
from his Lazarus Lives projects to help out.
And finally Jason Hall, a new-comer in the industry, has worked his
fingers to the bones as the penciller.
The creator, Parker Smart, has
been a long time comic fan and is attempting this project from a different
vantage point. “It’s all about
who you know,” as Smart struggles to find contacts in the industry, “and I
don’t know anybody.” He tends
to be pretty tight lipped as to the exact nature of the first series, but it is
definitely science fiction with a plate full of cookies for those nerds out
there. The premise may upset the
religious right, but you have to remember, it is just a story.
The website SpilledMilk.com is a wealth of information. It
keeps comic fans up to date on the progress of the series and contains preview
artwork. Smart is very candid on
his site where he documents the entire comic creation process.
Smart is stressing more on content than glitz at the moment although more
eye-candy will be added as time permits. The
storylines will first be released to people who sign up for the Spilled Milk
Update List, then slowly transferred to the web-site, and lastly released in
this format. For the latest and
greatest about CiCi and Spilled Milk, sign up for the updates and watch history
in the making.
