It's About Time!Ultimate Seven Soldiers Discussion

[Deleted]

So I am amping up towards the launch of Seven soldiers and I want to give you all a glimpse of what to expect.

The series will launch with 4 prologues and a zero issue before #1 hits. Each of the prologues will be set in a different era or place and introduce members of the team. They can be read in any order and all end in the same place.

The four prologues will be as follows:

Seven Soldiers Prologue: Kamandi, The Last Boy on Earth
Seven Soldiers Prologue: Nighthawk and Cinnamon
Seven Soldiers Prologue: Space Ranger
Seven Soldiers Prologue: Starfire

The zero issue will introduce the last two members of the Seven Soldiers: Rip Hunter and Crazy Jane, as well as the main adversary and will establish the central conflict that will drive the series forward. The zero issue is entitled: Schrödinger’s Universe: Part One: The Ouroboros Dilemma.

The Kamandi and Starfire prologues are already roughly plotted as well as the zero issue. Space Ranger is broken down into beats but not fully plotted yet and the Nighthawk and Cinnamon issue is only vaguely shaped at the moment.

The plan is to get 2 of the prologues up by the end of July and two more in August, with the zero issue coming either late August of early September. I started scripting Starfire this morning, so that will likely be one of the issues to drop in July, but we'll see.

I am going to be playing with writing styles and storytelling techniques as the series progresses, so it could be something very different than you have seen with my other stuff, then again it could wind up being very similar. I hope you all strap in and enjoy the ride, see you all on the other side...

The first of the Seven Soldiers Prologues is up Check out....

Seven Soldiers Prologue: Starfire entitled "The Rebel" now...

This is just a small snapshot of things to come, meant to introduce the character of Starfire. Other prologues will follow fairly soon...let me know what y'all think...

I like it, it sets up the main story (With the ending), gives Starfire some origin and is a good self contained story.

This is probably your best issue yet. And I've liked everything you've done.

[Stardrifter]

I really liked it. Was a very effective setup to Starfire. Keep em coming.

I preferred the Starfire issue, but I still liked this issue quite a lot.

[jackalope]

Read both of the prologues up currently, liked them. I probably enjoyed the Rebel more but I think the Paladin had a great climax. I'll be super interested to see what you do with Kamandi, he has a cool setting. Seems like it'll be an epic ride. I can't wait to find out the origin of the Scissormen.

From what you have so far, I like it. In my opinion, Space Ranger story was better than the Rebel one.
