SCATTERED COMICS

Scattered Comics is honored to bring aboard into its growing rooster of titles, the supernatural and high octane martial arts comic book “Zacklin“. This comic is a great fit for Scattered’s supernatural fans and at the same introduce them to the amazing brush art style of Bordin Marsinkul. This high energy comic has been sumarized this way:

“1000 years ago, The 7 demons of Zacklin from the Hell realm had a horrific civil which resulted in the death of every last demon. Years later, those demons managed to find a way to become reincarnated into human bodies on Earth.”

We had a chance to sit down with “Zacklin” creator/artist Bordin Marsinkul for a brief interview.

Q: How long have been working as a professional artist?

BORDIN: I’ve been working professionally for about 6 years.

Q: In a nutshell, how would you describe ZACKLIN?

BORDIN: ZACKLIN is a Dark, Violent, Action pack story.

Q: What made you decide to publish your comic with Jason Dube and Scattered Comics?

BORDIN: Jason Dube has been my best friend from the moment I met him. I know I can count on him pushing out my work to the public more than I can ever do.

Q: What kinds of things should we expect from this series?

BORDIN: You can get ready to be hook on to this series for sure.

Q: Is this a mini-series or on-going title series?

BORDIN: Its hard to say, since I come up with different idea for the series all the time. I can keep on going with it.

Q: Take us through your process in doing a comic?

BORDIN: I normally start with Story concept sketch to see how far I can do in 15 page per chapter. Once done I move on the the bigger size paper and work on pencil rough, ink, then

clean up in Photoshop.

Q: Do you feel its easier to work alone on comic or with a team?

BORDIN: Alone, since its my story, I rather have my own input on it as much as possible.

Q: If you had to pick a character you most identify with in the ZACKILN series, who would it be?

BORDIN: Umm possibly Bliz himself. He’s weak at first then he will become stronger as he’s able to control the demon inside him and use them. Just like me, how I don’t know what tool to use at first to draw. And now I know how to manage all the art tool, I just become better at drawing.

Q: What do you prefer drawing when you’re not drawing ZACKLIN?

BORDIN: Commission for other people LOL

Q: What type of readers do you think will enjoy this series? (ex: readers of X-men would enjoy?

X-force)

BORDIN: I say, if you like Naruto, Bleach or One Piece you will love Zacklin.

Q: Any last words, comments, worries, shout outs, sage advice you’d like to leave us with?

BORDIN: If you like my work  please do come by to see me and tell me at local Anime Convention or even ComicCon. I’m always in the artist Alley. Or you can Facebook me at “Bordin Marsinkul” or “Hyperbooster” fanpage. My website is www.hyperbooster.com

Heather Jaeger and Melissa McCommon to attend the ASAHICon April 13, 2013

Scattered Comics was born in Antioch, California some 22 years ago. And now for the first time in a long while creators and comics from Scattered Comics return for a one day event called ASAHICon, on April 13, 2013. Join “CAFFEINE POISONED” artist and creator of the new Scattered series “CONFESSIONS OF A COMIC BOOK ARTIST” is Melissa McCommon. Alongside with Melissa will be the creator of this year’s new supernatural comic book “LEGENDS OF KATAINIA“, Heather Jaeger. Both will be on hand to meet and greet the fans as well as sign your comics and take photos. (If you ask nicely). Be sure to ask them about the latest news they have in store for their Scattered fans and maybe get them to give out some spoilers from their new series.

Later that day at the con, they will host a new “How to self publish comic books” panel. This will be a great opportunity for new comic book artists and creators to learn the ins and outs of self-publishing.

This is a homecoming to the city of Antioch that was long overdue for Scattered Comics and we are all very excited and look forward to many future returns. See you there next week!

Scattered Comics is honored to bring aboard into its growing rooster of titles, the dramatic and self-discovering romance comic book “Berry and Macy”. This comic is a bit of a detour from other titles it publishes as this focuses on a very mature comic about gender, love, drugs, and violence.  Arri Sherman, who is best known for her previous comic books “Yuki Mari Sushi” (A fun and light-hearted comedy about a cat-girl), and “Thriller” (A teenage vampire girl drama) both writes, draws and colors this adorably cute and sexy love story.

Arri Sherman summarizes her comic for us. “Two girls will overcome anything to be with each other. Will their secrets tear one another apart, or make them stronger?”

Her very first issue will be released late this Summer and begins its story with BERRY who is angry at her judgemental parents, decides on a whim to go to a local club, not knowing she would bump into a crazy drunk horse

named MACY. Annoyed by her drunk state, BERRY leaves her to be picked up on by a bunch of guys. When they slink off with MACY, BERRY notices that they begin to act very suspicious. As the night progresses BERRY must decide to help this girl, or leave her to be in serious trouble. Be sure to check out this new mature readers comic series coming very soon.
