The Watchmen is finally here! I saw it on the eve of the debut of The Dark Knight, the first official full length trailer for Watchmen has arrived. The first time I watched this trailer, it took my breath away. Years of anticipation and so much more has finally led to this debut of the very first real footage - and I really HOPE the movie does NOT let down.
Zack Snyder's a director so...if it's only 80% as good as the 300, then it should be good right? But I sure hope for better. :) But it's gonna be hard to top the 300.

Online Manga Kapow Express Chapter 2 is HERE

Online Manga comics, Kapow Express chapter 2 page .5 (half of page 1)

Ok, Kapow is back...I start doing half a page for quality control since the comics is getting serious and there maybe historical time line and figures within along with my bs story line and characters. So I will try to do better art work and possibly 4 panels to maybe pushing it 6 panels at times. Depending on how much time I have available apart from things. :)

Thanks for your support!

Here is Kapow Express chapter 2 page0.5


To be continue every Friday?
Previous page of Kapow Express here

Here is a map of China so that it would help you visualize where things are happening in the story. Jilin Province (where these guys are) is way up north, and whatever happened (Big Bow, Mei, Cheng, etc.) in the first chapter is in the city of HangZhou within ZheJiang Province. The story will reveal more and more as you follow along with us. :)

And in 1909, the Construction of the 189 km railway between Shanghai and HangZhou was complete. (Kapow Express's original name was Shanghai Express, anyone?)

Fun fact, during that decade China's railway development was flourishing like bees and flowers in Spring season.

New way to read or present comics in digital world

Saw this post on PVP blog and I thought I would share it with you guy.

This is very cool way to present comics I LOVE IT!
This was done by ~Balak01 over at deviantART who presents his thoughts on the potential of what digital comics could mean. It was presented in the whole new super cool way. It was done in Flash...so.
