That was bloody quick! http://beyondrealitymedia.com/ report ROBERT RANKIN’S EMPIRES vol 1 have been sent to iVerse for preparation for sale next month. Shocked

Does the Vol 1 mean there could be a Vol 2 in the making Puzzled

Is it to be an online thing or a real printed book?
Any word on the colour / b&w thing?

A quick Google of iVerse seems to show apple iPhone and iPad comic apps...so I guess it’s digital and open to everyone with an apple product. That’s me out then! Sad

What's this about colour or B&W? As far as I know its all colour Puzzled

Didn't Robert say he was planning a b&w release himself & though some pages were being coloured, he wan't sure is the printing costs would go to a full colour print...

Re: 07/07/2011

Well everyone will be glad to know that on the 13th of October part one of Robert Rankin’s empires was released in it 42 page full colour splendour on iVerse. I guess, like me, you missed the big advertisement campaign and fireworks. Puzzled

Now if anyone can tell me WTF iVerse is and how it works I would gladly read the comic in full. If (as I suspect) it’s for the limited few with an iPhone (which I think would be way too small to read a comic on) or iPad then it can go beep beep itself, and I’ll have to wait till all pages are released at the crippling slow rate of 1 per week...whoop Sad
