Re-introductions
Greetings everyone! As you may know by now, I am Carlos. Some of you may know me as C-Prime, AKA that one dude that keeps making Natalie fan art. Well, from now on, I will be the artist and writer of The Melvin Chronicles! Being a huge fan of CD’s work with I Dream of a Jeanie Bottle over the years, as well as a novice freelance illustrator from Venezuela, it’s a huge honor for me to have the opportunity to work on a webcomic that forms part of a world and characters that I have grow to love over the years.
I am hugely thankful to CD for giving me the chance to work on my first webcomic, and also to Robert, who generously has offered me his help to edit the comic from now on. So you can expect the same high level of grammar quality on MC that you see at JB or SS.org!
I am really exited to start this new journey in the world of webcomics, and I hope you all enjoy what I have planed for the future of the story.
I am sure that a lot of you have many question in regards the state and future of the Chronicles. As exited as I am for this, I understand we are coming from some hard times and some of you may have hoped for the comic to resume it’s run in other circumstances with more familiar faces. So feel free to use the comments section of this page to ask as many questions as you may have. As long as the answers don’t reach spoiler territory, I will do my best to answer them.
With that said, in our last post, our commenter Ben already asked an important question: “How much, if any, of the original character plans will be transitioned into the story?” Well, some of you may not like this answer, but as much as I would like to respect Bach-Mann’s original vision for the story, the truth is, we don’t know what his plans for the story were. In many respects I am starting from zero here, with only a few notes in regards a very specific plot I can’t share with you yet. I will do my best to honor the characters and stories that Bach-Mann introduced, but the truth is that I know as much in regards these characters and stories as any of you. In many respects, I will have to rewrite them in my own style. So I hope you can understand.
None the less, words are not enough to describe how happy am I to work on this project, and can’t wait to share it with all of you! So be ready for August 30th, when the Chronicles will finally start once again!
