002 More origin ass

Hey everyone, this is Mixon, another 3rd of letterbomb. Thanks a ton for checking this thing out. We're hoping it can eventually serve as an interactive forum for fans of Post Collapse and Letterbomb. Until then we're going to post about the process and give you an inside look at what its like to create something like this from scratch. If you're reading this I'd say we're off to a good start.

Anyway. I've known Tyler and Hurley for years. Tyler and I became friends in high school where we frequently attended a lot of the same shitty high school band shows. A few years later, Hurley and I met at the first practice for this band we did together for a while. I've been close friends with both of them for years.

A little over a year ago, Tyler and Hurley were talking a lot about putting out a book together that Tyler was writing. For one reason or another it fell through. They started talking about trying another project this last fall; somehow, thankfully I was included.

We started with pretty much nothing. We just brainstormed ideas a few times until we came up with one we liked. With the exception of Tyler's first two projects, none of us had ever embarked on anything like this before, so thinking back I'm pretty siked about how far we've come. I'm not sure how qualified we are (one of us has an English degree, one of us has a Journalism degree, and one of us is a Millionaire), but we don't really give a shit. We're fake grownups who keep it nerdy and DIY till we die.

This is Letterbomb. Stay tuned.

001: Testing, testing...

1, 2. 1, 2. This is it, son. Letterbomb Studios is fully active. A plan 2 years in the making, up and running and ready to blow up the world.
Lemme give you the backstory quick: I (this is Tyler on the mic), came out of college with a degree in English, 4 bookshelves full of books, 15 short boxes of comics, a shitload of cds and no goddamn job. Matt followed soon after with pretty similar stats (a degree in Broadcast Journalism, though).
2 motherfuckers with bullshit jobs and no future. So I started writing comics for shits...and nothing came of it, mostly cos I can't draw for shit and nobody gives 2 about one more hack writer in the comics world.
Anyway. We gots friends in high places, though - friends who love comics and look out for bros (namely one Andrew J.H.). So Matt and I cobbled together some aspects of our sundry interests and shat out a couple ideas, proposed a plan for a comic/multimedia studio, brought it to said friends and bam, here's Letterbomb. Our main focus these days is a comic entitled Post Collapse - a story about a meth head facing the fall of human civilization. We hope to put it out by the summer, provided all things go as planned.
Matt, Andy and I will update this piece as much as we can, keeping you up to date on the latest Post Collapse news, as well as any upcoming projects we might be working on - all things Letterbomb.
