I got a lot of response when I posted on-line my first "24 Hour Comic" effort, BAD EGGS. A few years later I tried another comic--24 pages in 24 hours--calling this one THE LIBERATOR. I had this idea I would use Nedor heroes--a group of public domain heroes that have cropped up here and there, from Alan Moore's TOM STRONG to Bill Black's FEMFORCE. The trick was to base my characters on the original origins, and not later versions by other people. It was an interesting project, and you can read what I wrote about it at the time, with photos and all, by starting here. As with my last 24 Hour Comic, I drew the last page first, with a classic "Roll Call" which I have always liked."Not 'Hollywood Independent' - writer John Oak Dalton is the real Real Thing." --Cinema Minima."Very weird and unpopular b-movies and comics."--Blogalicious. "After watching the film I am left to wonder if he had some childhood trauma he is not telling us about."--IMDB user review. "Screenwriter John Oak Dalton wanted to be in Hollywood. Instead, he's in the rustic kitchen above the Germania General Store, stirring a pot of boiling hot dogs." --The Harrisburg Patriot-News.
