For my tastes, I am looking for people who draw fairly realistically, can do convincing looking people, places and objects. Most of this material is set in the world outside your window and the comics needs to reflect that. If you think you’re as good those now being published by DC, Marvel, Dark Horse, IDW, etc., then send me a few jpegs [...] [...] Bob Greenberger, in his new capacity as freelance editor for Platinum Studios, is looking for artists… preferably those who pencil and ink or do tight enough textured pencils that we can color from.

Be the next "Dark Horse" or "Eclipse"? I don't pretend to know much about it, and I'm sure the initial outlay would be tremendous, but do you have a few strings to pull and make this happen? "MEGA COMIX"... Bob Greenberger, publisher ... Just a thought.> Bob Ahrens I’m sure I’m re-treading over previously explored territory, but have you considered the possibility of producing your own comic publishing house?

The internet and digital art certainly made life easier, but this was in the days before broadband and before artists began uploading their pages direct to FTP space [eliminating the need for couriers, postage, etc]. I guess the mechanics would be easier now, but the hammering to your phone bill won't be any less! Still, sounds like an exciting project. Bumped into Platinum a few times in the late 90s as it was getting established - glad to see the studio is managing to make its concept work.

(Of course, who knows if they were successful or not...) ATK Bob:
