MIKE OEMING NEEDS YOUR HELP!!!!
The Cross Bronx, my next creator owned project with Ivan Brandon of NYC MECH is currently in this months previews for shipping in SEPTEMBER. There is only a few weeks to PRE-ORDER. This is the time that will make or break the book.
This project means a lot to me, and I think its possibly my best work outside of Powers. We want to do our best to push this in a big way, so here is what Im asking of you, my friends, readers and fellow online community-
Help us to promote Cross Bronx by word of mouth and posting about it wherever you can, post these updates and links to any site you can (while being respectful the site you are posting on) and most of all, encourage your retailers and friends to PRE ORDER the CROSS BRONX.
It’s a tough industry these days, even for a "pro" like me- its very easy to fall under the radar or get lost in the mix. All of your help is appreciated!
Below are some current links

Soon a list of direct links to online comic sites will be made available- if you are an online retailer, send me a DIRECT LINK to your site where readers can quickly and easily order from your site and it will be promoted each time I pimp out the CROSS BRONX!
Thanks much for all the support!

You can count on me putting some of those links in next weeks newsletter.
We have over 1,000 recipients of our store's newsletter, so hopefully that will help you out a bit.
You have yet to disappoint.

Awsomeness! Thanks much man. And if you want your store to have a direct link to order CB 1-4 from your store site, make a direct link I can plug people into so they can order directly online from the store- but we only have a few weeks left!
Thanks again!
You can also include my newsetter- joined by emailing me at oeming@aol.com

This looks really good. Perhaps I will post on some other message boards about it, if that'll do any good.
You should design a poster I could print up and post around Boston.

Shit, I'll definitely preorder this! Having never been disappointed by you it makes it easy. That and I buy and and every title anyone I know from this board puts out (hell, sometimes multiple copies). I'm a total Bendis Board creator whore. I'm hoping when my book is ready to pimp a little karma swings back in my direction.

I haven't read anything you have done yet, but I am digging all of these artists and writers coming to the fans and asking for support. Consider that shit on my pull list!
