Just a quick post to test out the “mood” feature of ComicPress 2.8 as well as let the folks who keep coming around here know that we’re not dead, we just haven’t yet begun to fight! The comic *IS* coming along swimmingly, and I am coloring the first five pages. But don’t expect much until we get to page 15. That’s the end of Chapter 1 and the ending of the intro. So please, watch this space!

“Ship in a Bottle” is a new “ecchi” romantic comedy by “Mace Paladino” (yours truely) and artist tira-chan. It’s a collaborative effort beased on a series concept I created just recently as I was thinking unusually hard about magical girl fantasy and the classic 60’s sitcom: “I Dream of Jeannie”, and I was also thinking of all of the Japanese comedies I had ever seen (Ah! My Goddess, Ranma 1/2, Magical Twilight, Urusei Yatsura, etc.) and all of the Magical Girl craze, and I said: “BY JOVE, what if I combined some of those things into a seuper-sexy comedy?!”
And thus, “Ship in a Bottle” was born. I take part “I Dream of Jeannie” and mix in some Genshiken, with a little Ranma style madcap madness, and I think we have a winner. Only time will tell. 🙂
