(AUG. 26, 2008) 

    Welcome back, if you think you are at the wrong site, don't worry you're not. We have just updated our look slightly to cram in more Highburn goodness, including a brand new web comic.

  Now on to the news. We have several major announcements to make, so in no certain order here they are:

 First, I have been chosen as the new colorist for Ape Entertainment's Femme Noir. The book is penciled by comic great Joe Staton and written by Christopher Mills.

Secondly, John and I have been chosen as the colorists for Digital Webbing's E-Man.

Our third announcement is the addition of Peter Palmiotti to the Highburn family.  Peter's inks have been seen in project from all the major companies, and we are delighted to see what his caliber of work will bring to our books.  Expect to see his inks on Guardians and Tribulations.

    How much more could we possibly have to share? Well how about our fourth announcement is that I have also had the privilege of also teaming with Indiana Jones artist Steve Scott. Together we have done several prints and projects including some Dark Knight work and the Hulk.

  Oh but wait there's more..I have also recently signed Guardians to stay with Dakuwaka Publishing and Platinum Studios. Platinum has recently acquired WOWIO and has made plans to move it's properties toward more commercial avenues including television and video games.

 And lastly our biggest news yet, Randy and Krystal are expecting. So if you see them out tell them congratulations, give them a high five, or even a good game pat.  Well I don't know about the last two but congratulations I'm sure will do fine.

That's all the news I have for now. If you noticed the date at the top of the news...well plans are for me to keep the news updated now as it comes along.  So check back often.

Until next time,

-Michael

Hero Complex, will be a monthly web comic here.  Originally created in 2002 by Michael Watkins and Grant Cruise as a part of the Dark Horse Strip Search Anthology.  The project was shelved until this year as an agreement was made between myself and Mr. Cruise to re-release the story.  So for the next few months the original series will be posted here as the crew from Highburn make some new adventures for the characters, hope you enjoy the show.
