I'm new to these projects here, but as somebody who has done long-form group creative work before (Exciter can attest to this), I can very much appreciate and admire your work!
I'm aiming to hop on board, whatever form this new incarnation takes.
Welcome aboard!

All this to say, I've put a lot of work in on the Wiki that Exciter set up for this and Age of Marvel. Like, a lot of work.

I've taken the first steps towards comprehensively archiving all the series of New Dawn. The first step was bulk copy-and-pasting the first page of the solicitation threads onto Wiki pages. This accomplishes, at the very least, the raw preservation of these materials on a different location.
In order to speed up the process, I was very broad in what I copypasted. A lot of username and other forum information has made its way onto these pages as bycatch. The next step would be clearing out that junk text. Then the extremely tedious process of sorting all the solicitation into individual pages for each series can begin in earnest.
In all honesty, I'm liking to burnout on the project well before I can accomplish that endgame myself. But, as is the nature of a Wiki, everybody is able to contribute if so inclined!
Sales totals for May are up!
So with Shaggydoo's departure, New Dawn will require a RELAUNCH! I would like to bring out a new slate of number #1s with a fresh continuity, and to do that I would like to emulate how Global Honored successfully relaunched Age of Marvels several months back. But first, we have to get a tally of who would be interested!
What I ask now is that everyone who is interested in plotting a New Dawn title to please let me know by posting here. You don't have to be a pro or have any discernable skills, and new participants are enthusiastically welcome (tell your friends). Like AOM, initially we will limit it to two titles per plotter. So if you are interested, please let me know whether you'd like to plot one or two titles. Don't reserve any characters or make any pitches just yet, this is just a roll call for who would like to participate.
After I have that gauge of interest, we can do a character draft. I'll randomize the plotters into a draft list, and then we can start reserving characters (so the first in the drafting order gets to reserve a character (say, Batman), then the second person gets to pick (say, Green Lantern), etc).
Sound good?
