I will be changing the layout, and transferring everything over to a new website, a shared imprint website - Monkey Pipe Studios.
Monkey Pipe Studios will be home to all the news, updates, previews and the serializations of all the series under that imprint.
Omnitarium will be re-issued as a complete webseries at this new home, along with The Hero Code, Department O, The Black Wraith and Intranauts.
Thank you all for your support these last few years with the series - onwards and upwards!

It's part of an experiment to test social media reach and promotion, part of a thank you to supporters, part a celebration of comics in general.
Please spread the word! Thanks.

Things Omnitarium related have been a little quiet of late, but I am hoping to make some exciting announcements soon.
Watch this space...
]]>Please leave a comment to let us know what you think.
]]>That's right, 'pages'. The last two pages of the final issue of Volume one are now up on the site, meaning that all four issues are up in their completion.
It's been such great fun to post the book up here, and to try to keep to a deadline of two pages a week - I think I missed an update once in that time.
Is this the end for Omnitarium?
Maybe not. To paraphrase Michael Caine in the Italian Job 'I have an idea'.
I am currently plotting out a sequel to the series, and also have the germ of an idea for a prequel. The sequel could work as an introduction to an ongoing run for this world that J.C. and I created, but that is me running away with myself.
I have had such fun in this world, it is only natuaral to want to return to it.
And so, over to you.
If you've read the series, let us know what you think. If you think there is more story in this universe, let us know.
Thank you all for stopping by and reading - maybe this isn't the end...
Onto other news:
This weekend, I will be at Wizard World Anaheim, table 1113 in the Artist's Alley. Hawking trades, singles, trading cards and pin-ups from the series, as well as ash-can's for the new series, The Hero Code.
If you're unable to make it down, Omnitarium is available at both Indyplanet and Graphic.ly, as well as Drivethru.
Have a great weekend in Anaheim or whereever you are!
Thank you...

]]>We a just four pages away from completing this particular story in the Omnitarium universe. I hope you've enjoyed it!
If you have been a regular visitor, thank you for your support. If you are a new face, thank you for stopping by - feel free to look around, and start reading here.
The trade edition of the entitre story is available from Indyplanet - now with the reduced cover price of just $10. For that you not only get all 96 pages of story, you get images of the original covers and all the pin-ups included throughout the series. It also features a new cover by artist J.C. Grande, as well as an additional pin-up by him.
Plus you get the warm fuzzy feeling of having supported an independent comic book creator.
I've had a real blast working on this series, hope you've enjoyed reading it!
]]>Omnitarium is now also available through those fine folks at Graphic.ly - so any iPad or Galaxy owners out there wanting to read the full series, you can find it here.
Have a great rest-of-the-week - see you all back here for the next installment on Sunday.
]]>A long work week, which seems to be getting longer and longer, as thrown all plans and thoughts out of whack. I had some intention of sharing something with you all here, but cannot for the life of me think what it is!
Have a good week, see you all on Sunday for the next installment... if I remember!
]]>I'm basically counting down the days left on this stint of the day job before I can focus on some solid writing. Things are coming together for a host of projects. Hero Code continues on with the art work and colouring, on two fronts. Two other projects are coming along nicely, one nearly complete, the other in the early stages, and I have two pitch ideas working along, with the final details of artists being ironed out.
I can't wait for the break so I can get some work done!
Have a good Sunday, see you all next week for the next installment!
My day job is near completion for this half of the year, and I am about to start my rather needed 3 month hiatus. Short of two or three weeks work on other jobs (including one stint on a project which I am incredibly excited about) I intend to use to time to relax, read, relax, write, relax and, well, relax.
Lots of plans for series' new and otherwise, big plans for Hero Code, plans for Omnitarium... it should be a fun break!
See you all back here on Sunday for the next installment.
