Greetings Programs,
Hello all. My name is Alaric LaBrie. I'm an American born artist who has decided to leave the USA behind and travel the world. I am pleased to meet you all.
I only recently learned about this community as I have begun my journey into cryptocurrencies and the blockchain. As a lifelong Anarcho-Capitalist who has moved abroad to the Philippines from the USA I think I will fit right in here. I love the vibe in the community already.
I am an artist, who prefers comic book style illustration and have been drawing and creating since I was 7 back in the 80s. I've often dreamed of doing a self published graphic novel because all of the big publishers out there seem to want your right testicle and first born child to get published. I am thinking this might just be the format for me to produce it. So my question to you is... would there be any interest in this sort of thing?
Truth be told I would probably make some seedy graphic novels (heavy themes, violence, nudity think "Heavy Metal"). Anyway, if you would like to see me create an original story and release an exclusive graphic novel here for the Steemit community let me know.
This is circa 1995 Illustration
Circa 2001 Illustration
Hellfurian (c) 2015 Illustration

The Hellfurian illustration is the most recent piece I have produced and would be the artstyle I would produce something in if there is any interest in such a work. I developed the style and the concept for the Hellfurian Graphic novel a couple of years ago but wasn't happy with the publishing mediums available so decided to sit on it instead.
I'm thinking about doing it on 50/50 reward system. So, we can help each other. The more of your friends you introduce my art to the more we can all make. Are there any comic book lovers out there would like to upvote this to show your support? :)
Anyway, thanks in advance for your support and welcoming me to the community.
Alaric
