NOW it's finished.

So, here I am telling the world that WESTERoir featuring Josiah Black is done and dusted...
And it's not.
Not quite.
Dave West (writer and publisher) decided that he wanted to up the page count of the first book to 36 pages...
A printing thing...something about wanting it square bound and not stapled.
So we needed four extra pages,
quick...
I didn't want pin-ups, that would detract from the Beastiary (What's that you cry) and I thought
doing splash pages in the main tale would upset the flow, so I suggested we do a complete little tale
with one of the supporting characters...
And here it is.
Written by Dave, art and letters by yours truly...all done in four days...
Not to bad eh?

So finally (he said with fingers crossed) WESTERNoir book 1 featuring Josiah Black is finished.
(I hope you're listen' Dave)

4 days? You are smoking! That's a bloomin lovely page. Really striking use of greys and bold space, yes indeed...
