Let the Games Begin!!!

January 12th, 2009 | by Scott Story

Howdy, folks!

Scott and I are continuing to have very detailed business meetings all aimed at what we want out of the website for 2009 – The Year of Johnny Saturn (Da-Dummm!)

Beginning this past Monday, there is a contest for all of you die-hard, rabid fans of Johnny-Saturn: Synns of the Father. The contest is “Who Said That?” and has 20 quotes from throughout the first story-arc. So, put on your thinking-caps, go through the archives or pull out your issues 1-5 or your copy of the graphic novel and see if you can tell us who said the quotes.

Email your answers to storyartstudios@yahoo.com and the first 10 people to send us the correct answers will win a calendar (Johnny Saturn or Scott’s Fantasy Art calendar), a copy of the Scott Story 2005 Sampler (which contains lots of full-color art, an interview of Scott and full color concept art for Johnny Saturn and Dr Synn), and a copy of the 2006 Scott Story sketchbook (which is jam-packed with tons of Scott’s art from over the years). This contest is not limited to those within the continental United States, but is for all our fans, no matter where in the world you live. We will even mail a package to Timbuktu!

The questions can be found on the Contest page, or right here in this blog post.

Let the games begin!!!

Who Said That?

1. Bless me gnarly bones!

2. Can you imagine a machine with instincts?

3. Come on, boys! You’ve been invited to dinner!

4. Distractions! Why are there always distractions?

5. He never disgraced the badge, and he died a hero!

6. I shoulda’ just let you arrest me. It beats owing you a favor.

7. I’d like to think that, at the last moment, Johnny laughed in the face of death… or at least, smiled.

8. I’ll give you another example if you say ‘pretty-please.’

9. I’ve got our bloodhound on the scent!

10. It is time to move the world.

11. Not on my watch, mortal!

12. Nothing like a mini-twister to take the starch out of your shorts!

13. Okay…Now that I have taken your measure…it’s my turn!

14. Tell all your friends that you kicked my ass.

15. This day just keeps getting better and better!

16. We’ve had a special cell created just for you… in the eighth ring of Hell!

17. Wow, cool costume!

18. You c-can’t be Johnny S-saturn! He d-died!

19. You’re a mess and you smell bad!

20. Young people never listen.

Johnny Saturn 2009 Plans!

December 29th, 2008 | by Scott Story

Hi, Folks!

Well, we’ve had our 2008 Year in Review blog, so now it’s only appropriate that we follow it with our 2009 Goals blog.  This is going to be a big year for us, and Benita has dubbed it the “Year of Johnny Saturn.”  I say, heck yeah!

In the early weeks of January, we are going to change over to running the strip not two times a week, but three times per week!  Monday, Wednesday, and Friday!  This is a huge commitment for us, because (as I am sure you can imagine) the art is pretty detailed.  I don’t care.  If we can’t do it now, then we can never do it.  I never say never.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, for now on, we are running “Inside the Sketchbook.”  This is a rare look into my private Sketchbooks, letting you see the development of the Johnny Saturn characters, usually with commentary.  I’ve already done all scanning for this, and it is going to rock!  It was a lot of fun for me to put this together, and it should be quite informative on who these characters are.

Benita and I have other things in the pot and simmering, and we’ll serve those up at the appropriate time.  For now, the changes I’ve listed above are huge!  New material five days a week, plus all the regular blogging you’ve come to expect from me.

Welcome to the Year of Johnny Saturn!
