Joe: "Did you consider having a "Hello, I'm Wayne Osborne" letter to the readers in the first issue?"
Yeah, in hindsight that probably would have a been a good idea. I gave an interview or two to get that story out there but doing something in the book itself would have done a better job of that.
Corey: "I can think of no higher endorsement than that!"
Me neither! I'm glad you and your daughter enjoyed it.
Joe: "Another question for Wayne...how old is Tom supposed to be? I'm guessing 14 from the context of the first issue."
Yeah, 14 seems about right. I never really thought of a hard number but 14 feels right to me.
Laren: "Question for Wayne about Silverback. Was he actually a talking gorilla?"
Yes, he is. That seems to be one of the things that people wonder the most about - even when I sent out the first ashcans, people weren't clear on that. I guess I wrote that better in my head than I did on paper - but yeah, he talks. I didn't really want to give to much away about him because there's a story arc I have in mind to tell his history and answer some of the other questions about him.
Steven and Ray: "I think I'd have liked some narration at times to slow down the pace in
certain places."

I suspect if I were paying for a project like this out of my own pocket,
slowing things down would be a luxury I would have to think more than
twice about."
Steven, I understand what you're saying but Ray got pretty close in his answer. This might be my only shot at getting a comic on the stands and I wanted to throw everything in there that I could. There's not a lot of decompression to be found in the six issues. If anything, I worried that I might be throwing too much in each issue. But JB helped a lot in making it all work out in 24 pages an issue.
Ray: "hopefully a storyline or two that will feature appearances by the Foundation or Homefront"
Stay tuned!
Hunter: "Question: can we speculate on what we think is happening or would that be divulging too many spoilers on this thread?"
It's okay with me but I'm not promising to tell you if you get it right or not.
And to everyone else who chimed in with kind words and good thoughts - thank you very much! I really appreciate the support and advice.
Best,
WO
