Voltaire: Blog

( a message from DEADY'S creator ...and sometimes human slave... Voltaire)
Hi,
It's really hard to believe that it's been a full year since the last blog entry.  I'm ashamed of myself, really!  But believe me when I say that it hasn't been because the gears at Deadybear.net have ground to a halt... quite the contrary, it's been a real whirlwind of a year since we last spoke.  In that time I made an animated short film narrated by Danny Elfman that played at 57 film festivals in 9 months and won ten awards, I released not one, but two new CDs (a country album and a CD of music for kids), I started shooting my 5th short film (which is nearly done), played Lord knows how many shows, toured Australia, appeared with Deady yet again on AdventureQuest Worlds and in there somewhere made some new Deady toys.  But alas, all of the work and travel made for a less visible web presence for us both. Nonetheless, lots got done in the world of Deady in 2010.

Greetings Deadsters!

Deady and I were having a conversation... okay, it was an argument... okay it was sort of a fight. Oh, for cryin' out loud, alright, it was an epic duel pitting tentacles against fists in a glorious battle to the finish (well, almost finish). And why, you ask? Because we had a difference of opinion about what DEADY's plans should be for 2010. Should we make a new graphic novel? More toys? A weekly comic strip? Those were my ideas by the way, DEADY's were completely useless... er... crap, I just looked across the room and he's staring at me. I think he can see what I'm typing. Yikes. Anyway, we thought it would be best if we had some input from you guys. After all, you are the ones who would end up with all of this stuff (we hope!) so it should be things you WANT, no? 
Please be as specific as you care to be.  If you want to see us make a new comic book, maybe you can tell us what it should be about. Or if you want to see new toys maybe you can let us know [...]
