Description

(Okay, maybe one of the individuals in that picture not so much a "friend" as a "frenemy", but those who are old enough to get the references understand what I mean.^^;)

First of all, yes, we are at 60,000 Hits!  Thank you all very much. ^_^

\And with this new milestone comes the adoption of a new art style.  Yes, I'm doing Spectacular Spider-Man images now.  But as fun and satisfying as they are to do, I must admit that I have something of an ulterior motive in doing so.

A few months ago, I announced that I had fanfic ideas for Spectacular Spider-Man, X-Men: Evolution and Green Lantern, The Animated series.  However, between my art sets and my Kim Possible and Danny Phantom fanfics, I recognized that writing these ideas would be impossible to do on my own because I just WOULDN'T have any time to get them all done.  So I put the word out, asking for fellow writers to help me as co-writers.

The response was...underwhelming, to say the least.

I eventually began to theorize that part of the problem with the lack of interest was most likely caused by people not knowing what my plans were.  And if they didn't know what I was planning to do or if my ideas would jive with theirs, then they probably didn't want to risk reaching out.  So to that end, I've decided to put out a set of various pics for the aforementioned series, just to give everyone a glimpse of what some of the basic ideas are.  So while there won't be much in the way of specifics, you can at least see the general direction I'm going in and maybe that'll give them a better idea of whether they want to jump on board with me or not.

Case in point with this new commemorative.  This marks the first of my Spectacular Spider-Man pics and already I'm giving everyone two pretty big reveals for some of the directions I'll be going in.  Granted, it's nothing specific, but it should make for a pretty big teaser to start getting people intrigued.

I hope it does.  Because regardless of the fact that this pic looks ferociously cool and I'm exceptionally proud of how it turned out, if I can't line up some co-writers, then there's absolutely NO chance that these fanfics I'm planning will ever get written.

In any event, enjoy the new image, expect more from this new format.  And most of all, thank you very much for a commemorative of this scope.  I'm very much looking forward to being able to give you another one in the future.^_^

Hey, Aaron, I have to ask, when you eventually get your 'SSM' stories off the ground, you're not going to yank Peter's chain when he finds happiness like Marvel has been known to do, right?
