Today marks the 16 year anniversary of the very first Lookouts comic strip. Created during the original “Pitch Week” in which we present to you the reader three new comic ideas presented as a single page pitch. This particular week saw us pitch the ideas for Lookouts, Automata and Jim Darkmagic. Lookouts won the voting but we ended up making a bunch more Automata as well.
It’s possible you missed the Lookouts short film that was made a while back so I’ll go ahead and drop a link to it here. Jerry and I were blown away when we first saw it and I still think it shows how much promise the Eyrewood has beyond comics.
The Lookouts started things off but their world quickly expanded to include the Daughters of the Eyrewood and the Thornwatch. If you’ve never read them or it has been a minute, you can read all our various tales from the Eyrewood right here.
