“Who Are You?” That’s the theme for the second issue of Strange Times, our “anything goes” anthology. The idea of “Who Are You” is tied up in the conversations of our day about identity. Red and blue. Rich and poor. Fat and slim. Black and white and red and orange and purple. It seems thatContinue reading “Calling for Submissions: Strange Times #2”

What’s new at Phoenix?
Hey all, I’m back from Spring Break and am a bit more tan, slightly rested (but quickly losing ground on that front from long nights since returning) and am more than ready to get things rolling once again at Phoenix Productions!

UFO Checklist promotes STRANGE TIMES #1 & HEROES NOW: PATRIOT

Production snags
The best laid plans… I sent HEROES NOW: PATRIOT and STRANGE TIMES #1 off to the printer last week and received the digital proofs on Friday. STRANGE TIMES looks great. Totally ready to roll. PATRIOT, however, caused me to pause. The grey-tones that Tony Lorenz used were showing up as plaid on my screen. (AsContinue reading “Production snags”
