Celadore
Celadore is © Caanan Grall
Celadore has failed. Christian, an evil corporate vampire has lit the day candle, which allows vampires to walk in the sun. Celadore must set out to destroy the candle, only her soul has been bounced into the comatose body of Evelyn Massey, an 11yr old girl. Plagued by the ghost of the actual Evelyn, Celadore is eventually joined by Sam, the over-eager next door neighbor, and her old posse: Jams, the only Frankenstein ever born of two others; Wax, Celadore's ex-boyfriend; And Ness, Celadore's business partner, tooth fairy, & qualified masseuse. Adventure, hilarity, and surprises ensue in a world where even magic isn't safe from capitalism.

Soon!
Aug. half done is almost done to me.;)
4 screens a week every week you would be a machine! The comics that win that weren't my top picks I enjoy giving another shot to only fair and sporting of me really. So aug. is almost over and I'm looking forward to your update and seeing where your story goes.
Hurry up and premiere already!
Hey Ron, I was very happy with that little Sam dressed as Batman pic. I always end up giving my best artwork away. Not that I mind. Better than it rotting away in one of my folios somewhere never to see the light of day.
...
Speaking of... I posted the photos you took over on my blog

Hi Canaan,
Celadore is really cool. I cannot wait to find out what happens next! I also wanted to thank you again for the Batman sketch in my Gotham Book.
Have a great day!
Ron
Look for CELADORE to begin in September - four screens a week, every week! Right, Caanan? You promised!
Can't wait for more, Great
Any word on when the next update will be? (hint hint...)
The most belated of them all.
Congratimundo my little oil drenched drumstick :)
Kudos on a job well done and a well deserved win :)
Sorry it's a bit belated, but congratulations, Caanan! As someone who admires your work, I'm excited to see more. And thanks for the frequent Vic Boone name drops.
grall, caanan.
do you have a website or contact information for commission works? ie website contact access:
via caanan.net
See you in San Diego. Be nice to meet you in person.
Hey Caanan, the Timony Twins are officially going to San Diego, see you there!
4 pages a update, smart man!!!;)
Hi folks! Chiming in briefly from Vancouver airport...
Neil - Someone had to win, of course, but you're sitting on a great comic there that will have no trouble finding a place and I will be following it for sure. Upon reading your entry a second time, you can't deny that last panel is one of the greatest cliffhangers to ever grace Zuda...
..
mpd - definitely 4 pages a week is my plan. ;o)
..
Sam - thanks for the last minute switcheroo! And Steve - thanks also for your vote - as long as you're not up against kid with your next submission, you'll have my return support, man! I love your work and it needs to get up there!
..
galaxygoddess - and for anyone else who hasn't seen it, my blog ... http://occasionalcomicsdisorder.blogspot.com ... has 13 - that's 13! extra backup pages further fleshing out the world I'm creating. My strategy with those pages was that, if I can't win you over in 8, how about, 10, 12, etc etc...?
..
RKB - Meaner vampires coming your way, although - I just read the new graphic novel from First Second on the plane - Life Sucks, and you should check that out because it depicts a type of vampire eerily similar to the way they work in my world too. The collective unconscious, huh? Bizarre.
..
Timonys! Thanks for the welcome! It feels great to be a part of it all, and while I am right now headed back to Australia, I plan to be back for San Diego to meet and greet everyone I possibly can. I wonder if Joss Whedon will be there this year... :oP
..
For everyone else (there are SO many! Ee! :oP ) - THANK YOU for the thanks. I promise to work hard to deliver a kick ass story, full of twists, turns and more panels than you thought could ever possibly fit onto a Zuda screen...
..
And ...Vic Boone. Remember it. ;o)
Congratulations, Canaan!
Congrats Caanan and welcome to the Zuda team!
Congratulations, Canaan!
GONGRATS!!!! HURRAY
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
CONGRATS CAANAN! You did it bro!
Congrats Caanan, to celebrate I think I'll go out and buy a copy of The Middle Ages.
Oops, that should be "maybe zuda" not "my zuda".
Oh,and . . . . Vic Boone. Remember it.
Steve, you really are a good guy. You do deserve some kind of award. My Zuda could give you another "pro" icon, then you'd have one for your contribution and for you attitude.
Steve - you are officially amazing! Considering what has gone on this month - you voted for someone else!!! That deserves some kind of award. Well here it is, the beautifully designed (and not-to-mention ridiculously expensive) fair play award goes to you Mr Steiner.
-
(you can't keep it though - it's purely ceremonial)
congrats.
So is there some kind of limit to how much you guys can post until you win? If that is the case I am so glad I voted for you. This is going be one heck of a series. You rule!
Well Ron, it's not that I didn't want to win, but my vote wasn't doing me any good. Figured I could help someone out with it! I think one of the guys from Hannibal changed their vote to ACTION too. It's been a crazy month!
Yeah!! Go you!!
Congratulations ... now, about that plane flight ... got a pencil??
YES! Congradulations! I was sweating there for a while. :)
You know i didn't vote for you but congrats.
P.S. don't forget meaner looking vampires!!!!
Congrats Caanan! Galaxy, look in the forums for the links
congrats on winning, very deserving.
I have an idiot question. I seem to be missing what every one else is seeing. where do I go to see more of this or whatever else you have out there? I can't seem to figure it out : /
Wait, Steiner - you voted against your own series? That's hilarious!
Congrats Caanan!
Congrats Caanan!
Congratulations!
Cheers
St
Congratulations. A well deserved win. I look forward to 4 page updates on a weekly basis thank you ;-)
Big Congratulations, Caanan. "E" was my first choice, but just by a hair so I switched my vote to you at the last minute when you slipped into 2nd. A very worthy winner indeed.
glad my vote could help get you over the top Caanan! Congrats on the win and I look forward to seeing your comic continue!
You're welcome, Caanan.
But hey, I didn't make the mountain, I just brought them to it. :)
Congrats, Canaan - looking forward to reading more. Now to figure out what to do with mine...
You did indeed, Iho. Thanks so much for the support! :o)
CONGRATULATIONS Caanan!!!!Remember, I told you that the win belongs to you.
Ha ha! I have a VERY long flight ahead of me this weekend back to Australia, Josh, so it's entirely possible!
..
Thanks again folks! Still reeling... *whew*
Congrats! And if the extras on your blog was any indication, all 52 screens will be finished over the weekend right? Daily updates then?
Holy. Cow. That was seriously a nail-biter, and I am kinda shocked. Happily so, of course.
..
It was an honour to be a part of this competition. I've been following Zuda every month since I first got a postcard at last year's San Diego con, and in my opinion, this has been the strongest, consistent month and a great indication that Zuda is growing and getting bigger and better all the time! I'm thrilled to be a part of it!
..
Thanks to ALL the voters, favouriters, starrers, & commenters! Special thanks to those who liked my comic so much as to recruit friends to come vote as well, Kid & Josh are the ones I know about here, my family, Erin, Em, Jules, Cathie... I'm sure there were more I didn't know about or are forgetting. Sorry...
..
Thanks. Again. Just, seriously, thanks.
..
Finally, I get to make ACTUAL comics. I'm excited,!! ... and I hope that excitement comes out in the rest of my pages and I can give you a darn good story.
..
Thanks Zuda! Thanks for existing, and picking my comic, and continuing to push webcomics in a bold new direction.
..
Wow. :oD
SWEEEEEET!!!!
Congrats, Caanan. The win couldn't have gone to a nicer guy and talented, too.
Congretulations Canaan Great Work.
Looking for more :D
word up! congrats!
