The Metatron

A tumblr for the webcomic B.I.B.L.E. at biblecomic.net Run by Maia and Gitte

I don't know if it's of any interest to my current followers, but once upon a time, I had a webcomic project called Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth aka. B.I.B.L.E. (you can still find the comic here)

My co-writer and I had the first volume of the comic published and went to conventions and sold merch sometimes. I have a bunch of both books and merch stuff still stored in my basement, but I'm moving house in two months and honestly don't feel like dragging it with me.

So, if you want to save an abandoned comic book or a print or a neat charm from getting incinerated, I'm giving it away for just the price it'll take to ship.

I'll probably keep our old Storenvy store open until the end of the year so I can keep track of it there. Everything costs $0.01 because they won't let me sell stuff for free :V

Been a while since I last drew these two, huh…

That's it, we've reached the end:

REBOUND VOLUME 4

What did you all think? Did things turn out as you expected? Who did you care about the most? Did I do an okay job on the writing despite the odd script format?

Anyway, thanks for reading! I'm glad I've been able to finish this, even if it isn't quite in the way I had planned.

By the way, I put the prices on everything in our store way down. Call it a clearance sale.

If there’s anything in there you’d like to have, maybe now’s the time to grab it:

Time for volume 3! Go get the pdf from the website:

REBOUND VOLUME 3

This is the longest volume, which makes sense since a bunch of new characters are introduced here (some of my personal favorites among them).

I'll be back next week with the grand finale!

It's been a few months, but here I am, ready to hand over the rest of Rebound! Please go to the website and grab the pdf:

REBOUND VOLUME 2

If you haven't already seen me talk about it elsewhere, I decided to take the sizable amount of comic script we had already written, polish it up and finish it, writing all the bits that were missing. This includes all of Volume 4, the end of Volume 3 and various other pieces here and there. Note that I've been working on this on my own, but the story as a whole, half the characters and a large portion of the writing is still Maia's too. I just kind of ran off with it to round it off. The result is of course not quite a comic, but I hope the script will make an enjoyable read on its own.

As suggested above, there are three volumes (2-4) and I will be releasing them one at a time with a week in between each. So in other words I'll be back with Volume 3 next Wednesday and Volume 4 the Wednesday after that.

The Volume 2 script picks up at the last comic page, so if you haven't read the comic before it probably won't make much sense. You can read Rebound from the beginning on the website: www.biblecomic.net

We’re almost there

Hey guys, I am just about ready to release the Rebound scripts, just need a few finishing touches and such. I'll put the three volumes out one at a time with a week in between each. I figure that's the best way to release them since the script is quite long overall.

I'm counting on dropping Volume 2 on you sometime in the coming week, so look forward to that! I hope you'll have a good time reading it, because I've definitely had a good time seeing it to the end.

Also a huge shout-out to @lsd-emperor for helping me out with proofreading. Thanks again!

Some main Rebound ladies.

Wouldn’t it be nice if I could get around to finish writing this thing so I could draw some actually meaningful pictures without spoiling my own goddamn story.

[gittetj]

More random Rebound doodles while I procrastinate from actually writing.

[gittetj]

What’s better than one terrible, old angel? Two terrible, old angels!

[gittetj]

Mmore Rebound doodles.

Dorian is an asshole, but I like him.

Jerry is my favorite character just because he is so oddly relatable and at the same time not relatable at all.

[gittetj]

My quest to finish writing Rebound continues. You know, I really like this story and all the characters, but the more I write the happier I am that I won’t have to turn any more of it into comic pages.

Damn it’s hard to doodle anything that isn’t spoilers, though.

[gittetj]

The last damn minor Rebound characters whose appearances I will actually care about.

Just some really quick sketches.

[gittetj]

A boring Lana doodle.

Writing them Rebound scripts. Lana is scary. (so is everyone else)

[gittetj]

More Thera doodles. I’m still not happy but it’s better and now she looks like herself again with the longer and sharper face. The main goal here is to make it possible for her to wear shirts with a normal neckline without all those feathers getting in the way. Maia just reminded me she originally never intended for Thera to have longer feathers on her neck, but I misinterpreted her first drawing of her and Maia was just like sure whatever. And, you know, maybe I should just drop it, but I have personally gotten attached to those neck feathers and Thera’s slightly vulture like look. Well. I guess there’s still a good portion of pages until she shows up in the comic and I have to settle with something.

I keep forgetting to reblog things over here. Art dump incoming...

[gittetj]

I did it you guys :’D I finished writing the last volume of Rebound!

(Well, “finished”, I still need to do some editing on it, but it’s basically there)

I can’t believe I’ve managed to get all this writing done in what, 3 months? I’m not a very fast writer, so that’s a super short time for me to churn out like 100 pages of new text and edit/translate even more old ones.

Next up:

Read everything 10 more times

Fix stuff probably

Another Rebound update

I’m done with volume 2 and 3 of the Rebound scripts (unless Maia has any issues with them) and about halfway through writing volume 4 I think. Getting there…

Volume 3 is so long, like over 100 pages, but then, half the cast isn’t really introduced until here.

When I’m done with volume 4 as well, I’ll probably ask around for someone who wants to proofread the whole thing and catch any grammar errors and bad sentences I have undoubtedly made.
