Flint Comix Con!

April 1st, 2010

Dark Elf Designs would like to announce it's brand new series titled "Attack of the Giant" the first double-sized issue is to be released on Easter, a story about a small boy named Peter who is turned into a rabbit by a traveling Magician and notes that daily he is doubling in size. By the end of the week he is 512 feet tall and can help but reeking havoc everywhere in his new bunny form, crushing buildings, vehicles and people alike with every hop. Peter's path of destruction is halted momentarily when the government figures out a way to get him the largest carrot in the world and fill it with a powerful sleep agent. They then track down the Magician to find an antidote. The first issue to be called "Attack of the Giant: Peter" will be followed in May by another story featuring another gigantic mishap with an retired pro basketball player titled "Attack of the Giant: Johnson". Later titles with a similar theme will include "Attack of the Giant: Willy", "Attack of the Giant: Percy", and "Attack of the Giant: John Thomas". Dark Elf Designs hopes this will get a rise in production as well as it's fan base.

Reminiscing...

Since the 80's Brian Germain (Hey that's me!) has been bringing professional quality art to the masses. In the year 1999 however the culmination of that art developed into what would be the start of a company whose basic idea was that for every company out there NOT accepting artists and writers who have never been published before, there were at least a dozen artists and writers who had never been published before. The idea for a company like "Image" was in Brian's mind five years before that particular company's inception. Now with concept for a company that involved scouting and publishing unknown creative talent. Dark Elf Designs was born. The road is sometimes long and oft wrought with peril but through it all we have managed to stay afloat and experience growth, in even the toughest of economic times. And we will weather this storm as well. We have watched major companies like CROSSGEN and CHAOS fold up and close their doors. While creators from those companies have thrived thus proving it's not the company that's the most important thing, it's the creators involved. Dark Elf Designs would like to wish a warm holiday greeting to everyone that has supported over the years and ask for your continued support through the years. We couldn't have done many of the great thigns we've accomplished without the creators and fans of Dark Elf Designs. Stay tuned to upcoming projects and Join our forum for more information.

Happy Holidays from everyone at Dark Elf Designs to all of you

Tangled Webs and the Death of a Superstar.

Michael Jackson Died yesterday and the world has lost a superstar. He wasn't always popular and he didn't always shine as brightly as most people remember him for. After the slew of allegation that pretty much ruined his career I almost see his heart attack as peace of mind from a world who loved him and ridiculed him. This world our earth is great because at times we not only learn to deal with the differences of others, but instead in fact celebrate them. When people get famous there are always clingers on and new found "friends" that wish to take advantage and exploit those differences. It is sad that in the day and age we live in that because someone is eccentric and different they become the target of ridicule, ostracism, and even violence. I know there was a time in recent history when Michael's entire race was shunned. It seems a sad statement on the face of history that in the year following the election of the first African American President of the United States, That it's first African American King of Pop, Rock and Soul has died of a broken heart. Let us look at the career of this legend and note that history should never repeat itself like this. O.J. Was acquitted and no one is hounding him, but Michael Jackson was acquitted twice and there were those that pursued him all the way to his death.
Every time an artist dies a little piece of me seems to feel like it goes with them. Michael Jackson was indeed among the many, but sadly compared with the rest of the world we artists are among the few. Let us hope this day society will stop pointing blame and fingers so much at everyone else because of their differences and point some back at themselves for the shame they caused to a falling star.

Sincerely,
