Faction: Dreaming in reality....

WOW it's here. in the flesh and living.So to everyone that shown such great support for Faction, THANK YOU!
i always wondered what it would be like to have people reviewing your work, and actually buying it. and now i have both. a very big concern of mine, of how people would recieve what i do. looking at it from my perspective, i'm my own worst critic, but what artist isn't.
but it's out there, for all the world to see, with all it's great points and it's flaws. and i'm pleased. because i've finally gotten over a hump i'd only Dreamed about. but it wasn't without a lot of "helpful" nudging form Erik.

Now on with real deal, check what people are saying about it, and if you can show you love and vote with your wallet. because that's the only to win round 4 of SPI. and before you leave, tell somebody else. and ask them, including yourself, "is this a book you would want to see on the comic shelf?"


$2 for the PDF download and $3.50 for the printed version.
