Hardball pg 14

Well, neither one of these guys will be spilling any beans (and given the fact that Camacho had a kill-pill, they must know some important beans, huh?).

On other news, I had a great time manning a booth at the Long Beach Comic Expo (or Con? I’ve seen both…) last weekend despite a vicious hangover. It was the first time I’d been to that relatively young event (I think this is its 4th year), and really didn’t know what to expect. Turns out, a lot of cool people looking to spend money on something new and creator-owned showed up, and I moved a good number of books (PROTEGE # 1-3). There’s another LBCE/LBCC in November, which I’m not sure I’ll be at, but I’m definitely planning to return next May.

At Long Beach Comic Con – May 11

by tanthony on May 8, 2013 at 10:40 am

LB-Comic-Con-logoNo update this week, as I’m swamped prepping for the Long Beach Comic Con and obsessing over rewrites of a new play. If you’re heading to the LBCC this Saturday, be sure to stop by my table (#8003) and say hey. I’ll be stocked up with issues of PROTEGE 1-3, an anthology of stand-alone comics I’ve written, and some other cool stuff. — Terence

Casting PROTEGE

by tanthony on May 4, 2013 at 11:53 pm

We all do it as we write our scripts: pretend we’ve landed that studio deal or show-runner gig and need to figure out which famous actors we get to hire.  Sometimes it helps us better realize a character we’ve created; sometimes it’s just fun to play. So, here’s my partial dream cast for PROTEGE:

tranecast

Lance Reddick (Fringe, The Wire, Lost) most resembles the Trane in my mind, but Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad, Revolution) is one of my favorite actors, and I think he’d bring some interesting depth to the character.

allumettecast2

If we decide to go authentic and cast an Algerian woman to play Allumette, Leila Behkti (A Prophet) would kick ass. If we go for bigger name recognition, Rooney Mara (Side Effects, Girl With the Dragon Tattoo) is one of the best young actresses around, and I’d love to see her in an action role. UPDATE: I’ve started watching the BBC series Orphan Black and Tatiana Maslany has jumped to the top of my dream list. Not only does she have the perfect look for Allumette, she is an impressive actor, too.

zander-uzicast

Give John Francis Daley (Freaks and Geeks, Bones) some glasses and he would be great as our resident weapons expert/hacker. I don’t watch True Blood, so I have no opinion of his acting, but I’ve seen Joe Manganiello in person and at 6’5″ he’s the perfect size to play Uzi.

lanois cast

Jonathan Rhys Meyers (The Tudors, Mission Impossible III) is a perfect fit to play the scarred, myth-obsessed antagonist Lanois.

No update this week

mathersJuan has been very busy with his talented self and we need to rebuild the pages buffer, so no update this week. Here’s a glimpse of the pencils for the upcoming pages — as you can see, the mysterious big man Mathers returns. And if you’re interested, I’ve posted the script for PROTEGE #1 on my tumblr. Peace!
