EGYPTIAN SHUMBA script complete!

Aside from getting to know the city more, my other main reason for taking this month off in NYC was to finish the script for the upcoming NLC graphic novel.  I already have 72 pages penciled and lettered (to be inked and re-lettered later), but I got to a point where I wanted to lay down an actual script for the remainder of the story.

It takes up 59 pages of that there red notebook, and now that it’s done, it means I can really start cranking out the rest of the comic pages. 

I’m super psyched to finally get to this point, but now that I know how much is still ahead for me to draw, I can safely say it’s gonna be a while before Egyptian Shumba is 100% done.  But still.  Big stepping stone here, so that’s good.

I’m not gonna give away too many plot points yet, and I’m not trying to make some grand epic.  I mean, it’s looking to be around 150-200 pages at this point, but it’s still just the Night Light Gang hanging out and getting drunk and talkin’ shit, only with more of an overlaying arc to everything.  Also, some Egyptian stuff. 

Updates to come.
