I'll be taking you up on that drink offer. I wouldn't worry overmuch about the sales of PULP #0 just yet. Its a teaser book for a much bigger package, so the trick is getting it in front of the publishers. Top Shelf is a great place to start. I've always been impressed with their products and attention letting the comic be what it needs to be rather becoming a genre publishing house. I interviewed Leigh Walton for my review of Top Shelf 2.0 and found him to be a really nice guy who thinks an awful lot about comix. You should definitely contact him but, if I were you guys, I'd want to submit the thing to Brett and Chris at Top Shelf as well for print consideration. It's definitely a story that would work best in graphic novel format, though I'd love to see it online as well. Rob Good meeting you as well, Jorge. I’ll be taking you up on that drink offer.

Baltimore was kind of a mixed bag for us. The Pulp #0's did oooookay, not terrific, but I guess that's to be expected. Folks seemed more interested in buying trades from "unknown quantities" like me and Jeff-- which makes complete sense. We're actually going to submit the opening story to Top Shelf 2.0 If things worked out there and the weekly updates were spaced right the first online chapter would come to a close at just about the same time as the release of the first Bloody Pulp trade (1 of 2). We'll see, I suppose. Hope we can reconnect some time soon. I owe a drink. :) -- Jorge Rob, was great to finally get the chance to meet you in person. Baltimore was kind of a mixed bag for us.
