The web comic is a sequel to the original Platinum creation, and features the work of Empty Room Studios founder Rick Hershey, colorist Daniel Harris, letterer Gene Kelly, and script writer Alana Abbott. Jeremy Mohler, Art Director for Empty Room Studios, serves as the editorial director for the project. The web comic updates six days a week, including concept art and bonus materials. In a publicity drive beginning October 1st, Empty Room Studios will launch a contest for readers to “become” a character in one of the upcoming storylines."I think that one of the best things about web comics is the ever faithful and dedicated community that grows up around an ongoing comic," said Mohler. "This is a perfect opportunity to really interact with the readers." Abbott commented, "It’s a perfect time for us to introduce some new characters. We’re just about to venture into new territory, moving away from the original comic. The cast is going to be larger, and it will be great to feature one of our regular readers in an upcoming story." The contest winner’s likeness and name will be used on a featured character in the comic’s second chapter.The October publicity drive also includes interviews with the staff, including an appearance by Abbott on Secret Identity Podcast and an interview with Rick Hershey on Jazma.com.
