I’m doing my best to pace myself. That said, I have the next 3 posts written and they’ll be out over the next week and a half.

So the way I'm doing it is I'm writing a post... then spending another day adding too it. @Lord Wraith pointed out I could be making my posts longer, whereas in the past I've typically written one scene at a time I'm wanting to push myself as a writer and actually write the scene transition. That said, maybe two posts a weeks optimistically? Depends on how my time works out.

I'm only aiming to put out a post once every five days, gives me enough time to write, edit and review a post and maybe even get another one started to begin building a backlog.

I'm not building as comprehensive backlog at this point, because I'm going to make a bit more room for interaction with Blue Beetle than I do with a lot of other characters I've handled.

In fact, the openness to interaction is one of the many reasons I picked the character.

Wouldn't use the word 'merger' (given all the board-gear that will take up a lot of the solo stuff), but the crossover's all good here.

I'm keeping things "bite sized" for a few reasons at the moment. I've been rather swamped with general life, so it's just easier to write a scene at a time and polish those for posting. Spacing things out also allows for references to be made to other characters and posts within the timeline. For example, I plan to include a reference to the events in Trasnia in a future post because that's something going on in the world that I would not necessarily be able to reference if I didn't break posts up and see how the world is. Transitions are important, but I am framing the Cap scenes as if they are parts of the larger narrative of Absolute Comics, but are also capable of standing alone and within it's own continuity.

Don't know if any of that makes sense, and quite frankly is kind of just auxiliary bullshit covering up the fact that I'm just trying to keep myself at a consistent pace, and keeping things to one or two scenes is just easy to manage at the moment.

It makes sense. With Stark I also want to build a business narrative as well as referencing key events, and I'm glad Trasnia will be getting a mention.

I'm just posting as they come to me and as long four or so posts have been made in the IC by the time I want to post them. I have no idea why I'm actually invested and motivated to this level this time. But I'm a lot like Doc in the regards of estimating where I want Kara to be in a month or so and what I need to post to get there.

Since I haven't said my plans in the thread proper;

If I want to be done I'm looking at posting about once every two days, maybe more depending on how my crossovers go. I might end up cutting out bits and pieces of my plan here and there, but it really depends. I might end up being a little late on tomorrow's post, but we'll see.

After having narrowed down my choices to Green Arrow, Hulk/She-Hulk, and Ghost Rider (while briefly being distracted by the idea of trying to bring Edward and Alphonse Elric into the game), I've finally decided to go with Ghost Rider due mainly to the fact that I have a story that should get me through at least one season of the game.

I hope to have a CS up sometime this weekend.

Sorry for the wait, gang. I'll be able to promise a Static post by the end of this week. After I've done the intro post, it should be smooth sailing (hopefully) from there.
