The Intergalactic Nemesis full 7-issue comic book set is now printed and in hand, ready to ship!  You get 165 pages of 1930’s style pulp-sci-fi action, and a TON of back-of-the-book special features.  The entire series is written by Jason Neulander and  drawn by Nakatomi’s Tim Doyle with coloring by Paul Hanley and Lee Duhig.

The first 20 sets sold will come with an original sketch by Tim Doyle.  (And, possibly more sets beyond that, provided Doyle’s drawing hand doesn’t give out!)

Over 18 months in the drawing alone, this set is a rock’em sock’em outer-space good time!

While you’re at it, Nakatomi still has about a dozen of these hand-printed silk-screen ‘vintage gig-posters’ featuring the villain of the book- Mysterion!

Available HERE in the comics section of the Nakatomi store!

And, if you’re in the Austin area this weekend-

Come see- The Intergalactic Nemesis Live Action Graphic Novel spectacular at the Long Center for the Performing Arts this Friday and Saturday!

The artwork from the comic book is projected along with 3 actors, a foley artist, and a pianist performing a score- LIVE!  It’s truly a new form of entertainment!

Go to the LONG CENTER’s site and purchase tickets, or just walk on up the night of the show!

We’ll also be selling comic sets and prints there at the show, and signing autographs- come on out for a great time!

It’s been a bit since we’ve had a new release by Jacob Borshard- he got married, bought a house, and fought the lava-beasts at the center of the Earth. Oh, and released a split single over seas.

So, we’re glad to present his newest print in the 80’s Ukiyo-e series-

The Seven Stages of Winter
Stage 7: Monster Attack

This three color artist-pulled screenprint from Jacob Borshard’s 80s Ukiyoe
series is a heartfelt homage to the cuddliest beast ever to terrorize feudal
Japan.

The phonetic katakana script reads:

My Pettu Monusuta
Laid waste
To our village
Everybody died
In the snow
Or in his mouth

This initial  offering is available in two different editions:

1.  Black Sky Wheat Paper Edition of 30
Black sky fades to deep brown with an orange fire glow over the horizon.
Irridescent white snow and a rich wheat colored heavyweight paper finish off
this gentle giant.
18 X 24″
$25

2.  Olive Sky Japanese Unryu Paper Edition of 20
Fine Japanese Unryu paper includes long kozo fibers that interact with the ink
layer.  Mottling and texture will vary widely from print to print, as every
sheet is unique.
Metallic silvery sky fades to a gorgeous olivine green. Light ink lines recede
to let the bold design speak for itself in this special connoisseur’s print.
18 X 24″
$25

(Please keep in mind the Rice Paper Destro prints sold out the same day of it’s release- this is also sure to go fast, as it’s half the price!)

Both prints are available now in the Jacob Borshard section of the Nakatomi store HERE.

He said that Vince Gilligan, the show’s creator, loved the print- and really wanted a copy.  BUT we were totally sold out.

So, instead of being a bunch of dicks, we printed them a special run of them marked ‘Show Edition’ or ‘SE’ and sent them a fat stack that they promised to make sure they went to the cast and crew and executives and whatnot.

“Awesome!” we thought.  Breaking Bad is unanimously loved by the entire staff of Nakatomi, and the thought that one of our art prints could be hanging on the walls of the Dad from Malcom in the Middle (another favorite) and the guy responsible for some of our favorite episodes of The X-Files, or maybe even that guy from Starship Troopers (Look it up!), was just too great.

And to top if off, the nice fellow said he’d send some swag as a thank you.  “Great!” I thought.  Maybe a hat or something.  But really, just telling these guys how much fun their work has brought to us over the years was thanks enough.

And what do you know- we got a hat. And a Shirt. And a Jacket w/ a little ‘Heisenberg’ embroidered on.

Holy crap.  That was really nice.  But wait-

We got a SIGNED PILOT!

Sorry for the Blur, but it’s all there- Walt, Skyler, Hank, Jesse, Walt Jr., Vinnie G (show’s creator).

What?  You want…MORE?!?

AAAAHHH! Actual Saul Goodman matchbooks!  I’m going to call that number right now, actually… hmm…disconnected. Does that mean that Mr. Pollo’s got Saul?

Wait…MORE?

CREW TOKENS! These metal tokens are for the crew for each season of the show! And they’re just like AA/NA tokens!  Because the show’s about drugs! AAAA! The season one token has a pic of Walt’s underwear!  So freaking cool!

So…what does this mean?  It can only mean one thing- love.  The love we here at Nakatomi have for the show is returned in kind.   It’s great when TV…GREAT TV loves you back.

Hell yes.  I feel great.  I feel like I’ve been bumping blue meth all day. I gotta go kill a hooker.

Oh, and while you’re at it- I have a VERY small amount of AP’s from the run of posters I did for the Breaking Bad staff available right now in the Nakatomi store HERE.  It’s the same poster as the 1st edition, just you know…printed later and marked AP.

The front cover was drawn by Doyle, but just about every detail of the image was dictated by the band. Yes, yes they did ask for a drawing of Truck-a-saurus sodomizing a 1983 Dodge conversion van.

The back cover was up to Doyle, and he drew the only slightly more sedate image of the now ‘well loved’ van.  Accompanying the van, just to the left,  is the completely evil Pickles the Cat.  Pickles might be known to Nakatomi fans as the cat driving the El Camino in ‘The Camino Cats’ print.

Pickles is pure evil.

So, back when he did the album art, the band said they all wanted to get the back cover as a tattoo.  “Yeah yeah,” Tim thought- “Nice sentiment, but it’ll never happen.”

Well, last Saturday, ‘Contact High Five’ committed great violence to their skin and their future employment opportunities-

All told, 4 members of the band got the exact same tattoo.  Completely awesome.  Nakatomi heartily apologizes to their families.

Feel free to check them out on-line here- Contact High Five.

Or, might I suggest the band stABBA, the Death-Metal Abba cover band, featuring members from Ch5?- stABBA.

Never, ever do this.

And, just something to keep you awake at night, dreading the apocalypse-

God almighty, that’s awful.  Pickles is a real cat. That evilness is actually real. She’s going to be starring in an upcoming comic book based on the ‘Sea Also Rises’ prints.

You’ve been warned.

We love you.

Since we’ve opened up our print shop, we’ve tried to make sure we’ve always had prints to give away for free- handbills and whatnot squeezed onto existing print jobs, etc.

Well, our LAST ONE blew outta here a few weeks back, and we finally were able to get the next one out!

This 24×6 2 color screenprint features a split fountain and is a detail image from THIS NEW PRINT.

There’s about 50 of each colorway, and they’re all signed by the artist, Tim Doyle.

You’ll get ONE free with each POSTER ORDER, for the next 100 orders.

(We can’t put free prints into T-shirt orders…or I should say, you wouldn’t want us to.)

Now, who else is going to love you like this?
