As 2012 dawned upon the Earth, I was hard at work finishing ADAM AND EVE: BIZARRE LOVE TRIANGLE IN THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE. I had not handled a super hero book in a decade. Frankly I had come to the point where I felt that the whole genre had become repetitive, whatever could be said about the genre, had been said by Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller, Chris Claremont, and a host of other writers, artists, and creators that were a million times more talented, and adept at it than I was. But I was looking to do some form of collaboration with my brother Will, and he had been pestering me for years to revisit Reptile. So as Adam and Eve was nearing publication, I had decided to see what I could do to make a resurrection of THE REPTILE AND MISTER AMAZING and that part of The Sandshark Universe, a fun and workable reality. I have had this character in my head called KAT CARSON that had been staring me in the face for a good couple of years. As I was brainstorming ideas to expand and map out the 21CSS Universe into a coherent superhero world, I felt as I needed a center to tell that story. Enter KAT CARSON! I felt like this diminutive feline would allow me to both tell a great story and the history of this Universe that I started building over 25 years ago back in middle school with a notebook and sketchpad in my middle school English class. So as I started writing a script for what will be released as THE REPTILE AND MISTER AMAZING: THE RETURN OF KAT CARSON, it dawned on me that the original tale had been out of print for roughly 6 years. So I dug up the old files, and did my best to retouch, and remaster ORIGIN to where it was presentable enough for mass consumption. Which brings us to this little re-issue of aforementioned Origin story! I hope you like what I’ve put out so far, and it encourages you to stay on board for KAT CARSON! NEXT TIME: PREVIEW OF THINGS TO COME!
