I'm sorry to say Post-Nuke comics will be on hiatus for a few more months. This is not the end of Post-Nuke, there will be more to come in the future. But for now there will be no new comic updates. The best way to stay in touch is to use our RSS feed.

There are many reasons for this. The main reason is chapter 10 is a very challenging chapter. While I do have the main story scripted, I am still working on the intricate sub plots and new character development. I have the whole battle scene storyboarded, but it is these next 10 pages (the lead up to the battle) that is giving me some trouble. This is a huge chapter, currently story boarded at 40 pages. There is a lot of planning and designing involved and I do have something special planned. But this is a lot of work and will take some time. 

Post-Nuke storyline


The number one question I get asked is "what is in the mysterious box?" I spent a long time thinking how I could explain this with out spoiling anything. I really can't tell people what is in the box, because it is a very important part of the story and will ruin the surprise. As you can see from my illustration above, the mysterious box is a very important part of this story. The object in the box is not only the final piece of the story puzzle, but also the point were several story lines converge. It is amazing how it plays out. Once you know what is in the box you can actually go back and re-read the entire comic and see it from an entirely new viewpoint. This will wrap up graphic novel one nicely, but will also raise many new questions,  which will be concluded in graphic novel two. The whole Post-Nuke story is broken down into two graphic novels each containing 10 chapters about 20 pages long. So we're just finishing graphic novel one.  Once you read the whole story you will understand why the story had to be told this way. This was always the plan.   



One of the many things I do is placer gold prospecting. Every weekend my father and I are exploring a well know gold bearing creek. I designed and  built a 3inch Suction high banker from scratch. It's basically a big underwater vacuum cleaner. It sucks up the gravel through the nozzle, and then runs it through the sluice box. The heavy material (like gold) is left behind while all the light material like rocks and sand is washed back out into the creek. It works great, and yes we are following all laws and regulations. We did find some good size gold flakes in several test holes and we feel we maybe nearing a gold deposit. Well I hope anyway. Ether way it is of fun and I do enjoy the great outdoors. This web site has great info about it if your interested in learning more. 

So that's what I'll be doing most of the summer. But in Fall time the water becomes to cold and in winter there is at least 2 meters of snow out there. I should be back with more updates late fall. I really want to thank all the fans that gave there support over the years. There will be much more to come and I hope you all will be back in the future.
