Hey, Texasboy, I appreciate the feedback.

And, Lee, thanks much. What I enjoyed writing was the rapport between Shatman and Spocky.

Patience, Superdog. Shatman is just getting started, plenty of time for him to argue with his hair.

Not bad, but Fleischer is funnier i think...

I like all the pauses... in Shatman's speech... then the last four or five words... all becoming one... Good "Kirk-phrasing"... IfIdosaysomyself. lol

Rorschack, maybe I'm not supposed to say this, but I agree. There is just something so appealing and amusing about Fleisher as a character. What Leon and I are trying to do while issue two is drawn, however, is to flesh out his "universe" (if that's not too grandiose a term) by introducing other characters in shorter stories.

Thanks, Bigheadsarge. You've got to see me sitting in front of my laptop, speaking Shatman's lines out loud as I try to find the right ones to separate by pauses, and which words to run together. I think my wife wants to have me locked up.

Well Ed, i'll have to agree with Roar... and well... yourself LOL Fleischer is funnier but i do like those two characters's chemestry! They are a brilliant part of the Fleischerverse and i can't wait to see them in Fleischer #2!!! Good stuff as always Ed ;) Now what i wanna see is Green Latreen and Spocky all depressed at a bar, talking side-kick lingo LOL Maybe a good place for villains to gather info on their foes... wink, wink :P

The only thing I really thought was funny was Shatman's "voice". I think you need to be more consistent with it, however. It starts good and then you kinda forgot about it until the last panel.

Thanks for the feedback, guys, both positive and negative.

The Guillotine, I agree that the voice should have been more consistent. Personally, I thought it was a funny little piece, but I appeciate other's feelings about it. I think everyone will enjoy them far more when they're interacting with Fleischer in #2.

Been slow doing it, but we're definitely going to create a hard copy comic very soon. Also need to get that Fleischer T-shirt store going.

AND THE ACTION FIGURES!!!!!!

Them one-off action figures are expensive to produce. I think we'll have to wait on that one until Fleischer conquers the world.
