Publisher Model

The Cartwheel Group 3 Comics business model will be changing from that of a community collective to a small online publisher/press. Updates will be made to the main site and all social media sites as needed to reflect this change.

Organizational Update: Hiatus

JULY 17, 2014 ORGANIZATIONAL UPDATE: Unfortunately, I have not found any artists to work with that have stayed on through the completion of a project. No artists are currently signed on. Though I’m always on the search for new aspiring up-and-coming artists to work with, I am taking a hiatus. I recently relocated to the Boston Area for the summer with the intention of finding a day job to make my stay permanent. I am focusing on that and once I am a little more settled, I will return to trying to make Cartwheel Group 3 Comics successful full force. Any interested artists can still contact me via email to cartwheelgroup3@gmail.com.

Happy International Women’s Day 2014

Happy International Women’s Day from Cartwheel Group 3 Comics! Reckless Abandon is the first and only CG3 character to be teased so far. We hope to instill her future characterization with the intelligence, strength, compassion, and complexity of women all over the world.

Still on Facebook, Twitter & tumblr.

We recently got more ‘likes’ on our Facebook Page thanks to a couple of CG3 friends sharing it with their contacts. Since we’re excited about that, we thought we’d take the time to remind you that Cartwheel Group 3 Comics is on Facebook, Twitter & tumblr.

As we had stated before, things are still in progress, but we urge you to stay tuned. There really is more to come! Things should definitely kick off in 2014.

More on Polka Dots & Plaid…

Remember this tease? Here’s a little more on this concept. It’s called Polka Dots & Plaid, which refers to the two main characters. It draws on What Not To Wear, the idea of being reprogrammed, black holes, and alternate lives.

Soul Weaver Sketch Color

This is a sketch (character design) of Soul Weaver. He’s a sorcerer character, along the lines of Marvel’s Dr. Strange, except that he’s from another planet. He may be featured in a forthcoming story.

Mongrel Suit Sketch Color

This is a sketch (character design) of suit [the colors may change] to be worn by Mongrel. He’s a shape-shifting laboratory-made “monster” character (who maybe used to be a man or maybe not) that may be featured in a forthcoming story. He had a head and tentacles, but his color and tentacles started reminding me a little too much of Zoidberg from Futurama. So, back to the drawing board on that!

Reckless Abandon Sketch Color

Remember this? This is the color version of the B&W sketch (character design) of Reckless Abandon presented previously. To remind you, she’s a vampire character that may be featured in a forthcoming story. She’s not quite finalized, yet, but we’re getting there. What do you think of her look so far?
