How do you motivate aspiring artists to follow your lead in creating comics?
DEC 27, 11:23PM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIAS- Hi Edward I would tell them to be as original as they can and try to create something different. We live in a time were mostly everything has been created and originality is very hard to come by. Don't listen to standard guideline what I mean by that is you will see alot of how to break into comics books say you have to follow a specific guidelines or your book should have this many pages . I say do whatever works for you and make your books stand out from the rest.
Greetings Carlos.

Every issue you will see a different villian ,in total he has over 40 villans so far.
DEC 27, 5:26PM EST0 REPLYMARIKVINTRADZEWhat are the essential tools in creating a comic book?
DEC 26, 3:15PM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASYou have to create something unique , not just your typical superhero. What drives this character , the more layers the character has the more you can do with it.

DEC 26, 12:44PM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASLucrative for a few the rest do it because it's a passion or a hobby. Only a few reach it to the top and actually make a good living doing this others just struggle throughout their lives making ends meet. You have to make a tough decision a put everything on the line to pursue what u love and hope for the best.

DEC 27, 5:35PM EST0 REPLYMARICELLDo you have other business apart from creating comic books?
DEC 26, 8:16AM EST0 REPLYRON MORGANWhat makes your recent book "The Clownman" interesting to read?
DEC 26, 4:41AM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASAsk yourself this question. What would you become if something horrific happen to you our your family ? I think we would all become something totally different . Clownman is a story about a circus performer called Chris Mason ,he is a victim of a unspeakable crime and as a result gains new powers and becomes a ruthless vigilante. It's not your typical ordinary superhero story . It's something unique and how doesn't like the sound of a Clown dishing out some vengeance on some villans that destroyed other people's lives.
DEC 27, 5:45PM EST0 REPLYS.AQUINSCan you name one success story you can share as far as producing comic is concerned?
DEC 26, 2:38AM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASSure as a result , I have been asked to several interviews Ama being one and having alot of fun answering all your questions. I also had another interview posted on YouTube from Josephs books which was a live interview I did. My ultimate success is just the feedback from the Wicked fans they all seem to enjoy the character and all the characters that are coming soon.
DEC 27, 5:49PM EST0 REPLYJLYN2017How many stories have you released under your publications?
DEC 26, 1:55AM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASClownman being the first , Killswitch second than we have another 3 original stories being released afterwards. Bloodstone, DragonMasters, Cronus, and Justice. Comic book readers better have thier seats buckled up because Wicked Comics has several titles releasing soon. Our first Comic will be a 32 page "ClownMan" comic you will get a bit of his backstory and look into who Chris Mason was before he becomes this vigilante superhero. Killswitchis also nearing the final stages it will also be available in both print and digital form aiming for about 28 pages in total with advertisments featuring teaser pages form other Wicked titles. Two comics which are halfway complete are " Bloodstone" and another title for fans of the science fiction fantasy genre called "DragonMasters". Bloodstone tells about an assassin called Bishop cross he comes in contact with a fallen angel containg a very powerful deadly stone know as a "Bloodstone". This stone transfoms him into this deadly caped crusader that must now seek other stones and protect the Bloodstone from a powerful hell seeking rebellious angel called "Gabriel".Each stone contains a special ability. Death stone, Leap of faith stone, BloodStone, if a stone falls into the wrong hands it lets arise very dark and forceful abilities to the individual that comes in contact with the stone. Another title that is dropping soon is a title called "DragonMasters", if you are a fan of fantasy this comic will really get your blood pumping. In a universe far beyond lies a struggle between light and darkness. Slayers those who use the evil of the dragon eye, and masters those who use the good side of the eye. A dragonslayer named "Draco"will lead an alliance to combat the slayers in an ongoing battle to defend there kingdom. This is going to be a huge universe I could say similar to how big dungeouns and dragons is with hundreds of characters. Justice is a futuristic story that takes place in the year 4050 and planet earth has been destroyed by a massive meteor attack.Humanity was able to escape to a new found planet called Solaris. The planet is infiltrated by a dark alien race that wants to enslave and exterminate humanity.There only chance for survival is a ancient symbol found within the planet that calls for a superhuman and protector of the universe called "Justice". I am alsoa huge fan of greek mythology and another project We are working on is a character called "Cronus" He is abandoned by the God's and becomes a slave to the underworld and he must seek out a powerful warhorse called "Arion" to fufill a pact with a demon known as Dagramon.Three other projects I would like to tell you about are "Bullet","SilverWolf" and "PhantomMan". Bullet is our first AfricanAmerican character and he is a werewolf assasin that was cursed by a ancient ancestor."Silverwolf" is our first native american character and we are having his setting take place in a western setting with many characters and villians."PhantomMan" takes place in a dark victorian setting and tells a story of a rich count called Alexander Dumont, he is betrayed by his best friend and trapped to burn to death in a haunted theater.We have so many characters in projects going on its hard to tell you every singleone. We are also making a whole line of Wicked Trading cards so fans can get familiar with the huge Wicked Universe.On the back of each car you will get character information, power , ablities and what kind of weapons each character has at theierdisposal. We are very excited to present all these new ideas and stories to all comic book fans out there.
DEC 27, 5:53PM EST0 REPLYHAPPILY4ALLHow did you conceptualize your storyboard for a certain genre?
DEC 26, 12:47AM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASI never really story board any ideas they just come to my mind after getting inspired by something I might have experienced or seen in the past.
DEC 27, 5:55PM EST0 REPLYJONA PANESAWhat were your greatest setbacks as a comic creator?
DEC 25, 11:21PM EST0 REPLYCARLOS A FARIASIt's hard as an independent creator to get your foot in the door as they say. You just have to be persistent and have determination. Just try to be as unique as you can others will hopefully follow.
