FF, the page is like being seduced by Zeus in the form of a Pulp Adventurer. This project looks like Cornell Woolrich grew up to become Batman. Drown us in the darkness!

I've been following your site for along time now but it's the appearance of these first two pages that is making me speak up. Fantastic stuff! love the noir/pulp influence. the layouts on page two are great. Excellent story telling coupled with great design. can't wait to see the new site.

I'm covering every single update regarding Black Beetle via Twitter. Go check it out when you have the time Francesco: http://twitter.com/monkey03 (I tweet regularly so try to check it out fast) Anyways, i'm loving the first two pages, can't wait to check the whole thing. But as any good project out there, it needs time to build up momentum.

Slavi: well, I thought I had to start it at a certain point so why not sooner rather than later? ;) Thank you :)
Ruben: grazie mille, fratello :D
Azhar: thank you for the flattering comment :) I will try to stop by and leave a comment or two as soon as I catch some breath. (Under a couple of tight deadlines right now)
Emil: Merci, mon ami :) So glad to see you popping in here every now and then :)
Dave: always good to get the approval of another pulp artist like yourself :) Thank you!
Mark: the fact that you came out from lurking mode to compliment the first 2 BB pages is flattering and shows me I am doing something right :) Thank you and stay tuned for more about the new site (coming very soon).
Neue: thank you so much for the always kind comment and for pimping this project on the web: the more know about BB the better :D

And now get ready to meet Joe Fierro, tomorrow on Pulp Sunday :)

Cheers,
Francesco
