Howdy all,
Well, it's done! The Legend of Spacelord Mo Fo Episode 1 has launched! We had a great weekend at Supanova Adelaide catching up with many old friends, making some cool new ones, and just generally having a blast of a time.
But the biggest news of the weekend is that we came within 1 copy of
selling out our first run of the Mo Fo Ep 1! Yeah! We're feeling pretty
chuffed right now! So, lots of people to thank - everyone who came by
the stand and purchased a copy, the Supanova organizers and volunteers
for their tireless work, to all the friends who dropped by to say 'Hi'
and 'Howdy', to the other artists and stand vendors, and to everyone who
helped out behind the scenes to make this happen!
The Mo Fo stand.... ready for battle!

"The Legend of Spacelord Mo Fo is an
ass-kickingly kick-ass post-apocalyptic, space-western dramedy, with
anime influences and a bit of that dark and sexy HBO stuff... but
really, it's a love story... No... Really! Oh, and as an Advisory Warning ... it's for a more mature audience... well, not for 'kids' anyway... not really sure about the 'mature' part."

Howdy All,
We're only 3 days away from Part 16 of the Mo Fo being unleashed on the world... and 4 days until we launch the completed, uncensored, and fully HD Episode 1 of the Mo Fo at Supanova Adelaide, and the buzz is really starting to rumble.
Rumble No. 1
We sat down with Nathan Tan of the awesome I Got Superpowers Comics/Anime/Cosplay Blog last weekend (at the excellent ETC Cafe) for a bit of a chat, and to discuss some secret Mo Fo business that shall remain super-secret for now (but big things are certainly stirring in our giant pot of ideas). He's just posted a huge write-up on the Mo Fo that's got us feeling pretty damn chuffed - click the pic to read all about it!
Pat, Nathan & Invisible Dave
Rumble No. 2
There are a couple of moments in this creativity business when you really feel like what you've been pouring your blood, sweat and tears into for so long feels like it's been worth it - and Dave and I have just had such a moment. In this case, it's a fellow artist paying us the ultimate honor by using our work as an inspiration for his own. Melbourne-based writer/artist Thomas Tung of 'The Cosplayer' web comic strip, made our week in the biggest way by posting an awesome homage to the Mo Fo - and if you're familiar with the opening sequence of the Mo Fo, you'll understand why. He gets it! He really does! Click the pic to see the strip in all of its glory!
Seen it? Good! Now, do yourself a favor and check out the rest of 'The Cosplayer'. It's one of the smartest written, character-driven, geek comedy web-comics I've read.
That's all the rumblings we have time for today, but we'll have more posts to come in the build up to Supanova, until then... we'd better get back to working on the Mo Fo... can't leave it half done now can we?!
The digital dream's becoming a reality!
Cheers All,
Pat and Dave

Howdy All,
We're a week away from Supanova Adelaide and the final touches are being made to Part 16 of the Mo Fo. We'll be launching the complete Episode 1 on the Mo Fo website on Friday, 16th November -- then, for the first time ever, we'll have the full, uncensored, High-Def, digital version of the Mo Fo available for sale at Supanova. You can find us in Artists Alley - Table Y... see map for directions...
As well as the completed Episode 1 we'll have 100 Limited Signed Collector's Panel Print Sets available (Three Prints per Set). Each Print features a signature art panel from Episode 1 on the A side, with the relevant excerpt of the script printed on the B side.
We'll have more announcements to make in the days ahead, for now though, it's back to finishing Pt 16.
Cheers All,
Pat and Dave

Howdy All,
It's been almost three months since our last update. Unfortunately, Dave and I haven't had much time to devote to the Mo Fo as we've both been super busy with other work (the kind that pays $$ to support our ongoing Mo Fo habit), but slow progress has continued on the final Part 16, and we're pretty damn happy to say it's nearly done. Yay! ... No! Really!!! YAY!!!
We're also very damned happy to announce that the Mo Fo will have a double-sized stand in Artists Alley at the upcoming (and inaugural) Supanova Adelaide, November 16-18 at the Adelaide Showgrounds.
Naturally enough, since the Mo Fo is the biggest pop culture phenom attending (ahem), we'll post info of exactly where we'll be at Supa as soon as the details become available so there's no chance you'll miss us - you know, before you rush like rage-crazed maniacs to see the other guests - James Marsters, Felicia Day, Morena Baccarin, Cassandra 'Elvira' Peterson, Luke Perry, Nelsan Ellis, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Tom Felton, Howard Chaykin, Sean Williams, Fiona McIntosh... etc, etc, etc and etc... Yep, it's gonna be a HUGE Supanova! We can't wait!
Until then, and until Part 16 is ready to be unleashed on the world, here's a cool in-development sketch Dave whipped up in his not-really-spare time of one of the spaceships that will be appearing in a future episode of the Mo Fo - hope you like!
Cheers all,
Pat and Dave

Howdy All,
Good news is the finale to Episode 1 of the Mo Fo, Part 16, is shaping up to be as big as, if not bigger than Part 15, and it's going to be every bit as guns-blazingly explosive!
Bad news is... it's taking a lot of time and effort to get it finished. And if we weren't spending crazy enough hours on the Mo Fo already, Dave and I both have other 'projects' we're working on in the daylight hours.
"Other 'projects'?" you're no doubt asking (and if not, then now's the time). Well, thank you for asking, and why don't I tell you about them...
Dave is having his first solo exhibition titled 'Trans-' for the SALA
Festival opening on the 3rd of August at Cafe Foreyou on Lipson. It runs
till August 26th so drop in to the cafe, buy a coffee from Gail then
buy a painting created by Dave. Live it up ;) — at Cafe Foreyou on Lipson... that's in Adelaide, South Australia in case you were wondering...
Click HERE for the show's listing on the official Sala Festival website.
And I (Pat) have just completed writing Angelwitch Book Two: Triumvirate, the next volume in the huge illustrated novel series I've co-developed for Angel Phoenix Media with supanova of an artist, Michal Dutkiewicz. Book One: Dragonscarpe has also undergone a complete revamp, with stunning all-new art by Michal added to the epic amount of amazing works seen previously.
Not to be left out of the Angel Phoenix Media party... Dave produced the cover art and design for, The Pandora Sequence, by writer Alexander James (Blake's 7 reboot).
All three books will be released by Angel Phoenix Media 3rd Quarter 2012. We'll post updates as we know more specific dates.
And there you have it... all the latest 'other projects' Dave and I have been working on recently. Now, back to the Mo Fo... and his face off with a group of Bad Kittys...
* Sidenote... must discover the correct terminology for describing a group of bad kittys...
Cheers All,
Pat and Dave
