Dude, if you haven't seen the tv series..watch it..i have only seen 3 episodes and it is an addiction. Sad that it was canceled! You are just epic for this!
The Jericho editors sent me an e-mail about a year ago asking if I wanted to try out for the colorist position on the series but they were offering a ridiculously low page rate and wouldn't budge so I had to turn them down,which sucked because I really would have liked to do it.
I'm assuming they budged if Hi-Fi picked up the chores. We didn't get crazy money or anything, but it wasn't out of the norm from the other books we've done for IDW.
I won't give exact numbers but lets just say the offered page rate was slightly above what the top flatters in the biz get and on top of that they wanted a crazy turnover schedule.Oh and unless IDW is doing a Jericho series as well it's from Devils Due
That's probably the difference then, because IDW took over publishing it. Not sure if Devil's Due is doing a book too or not, but this is definitely an IDW book.
