Dear Eric,
Let's clear the air! What the heck are you going on about? How can I help you? All I ever did was try to help you. I invited you into my house. Made you a family member. Yet you continue to spit all over that with your rambling lies. Your misinformation. Your disparaging remarks about me are an insult to everything we built together. You are just mad that I stopped letting you use me the way you wanted too. I never exploited, used or preyed on your weaknesses. Maybe that is what you tried to do to me, but when I had enough I cut you loose to do whatever the heck you wanted, as you were never moving forward on this project. Teasing me about your awesomeness, and always leaving me to do majority of the work. Plus the cost involved. You were just being lazy and uninspired.
This post is also being shared on my blog page, just in case you attempt to censor my response to keep telling your phony narrative.
Here is the truth: I wrote the comic script. (Which I can share upon request if need be) Drew the cover. Created the templates of all the characters. Created each distinct voice for each character. Did I get some imput from you? Yeah I sure did. We sat down had a conversation. I went home and put it all down on paper, and came back with this concept to you, and then decided to share in the creation with you.
(See Exhibit A)Later I did the breakdowns for the script after you couldn’t figure out how to start. ( I drew the entire books breakdowns, which you followed along with my script. I can go all night showing you page after page) (See Exhibit B-Wise breakdown pencils of a page)You (Eric Wise aka Wise Knight) produced breakdowns of my breakdowns. Leaving me (Jake Estrada Exhibit C) to try to make head out of tails with this mess into a tangible story. This went on for the entire first 7 pages. Just as you were slightly getting better, you decided you would go off do paintings and make money makers how you put it. Once realizing you were using me and this book would never get done. I cut the cord on it. 2 years is a long time to get only 7 pages with non-existent details. Which forced me to draw and add in.. Yet somehow I used your creativity? Yeah right!!
I held on far too long hoping you would come to your senses one day and apologize for your antics. I thought we would look back at this one day and laugh, but I was wrong once again. I just can’t understand the hate and lies you have for me, when I only cared and loved you as a brother. I’ve always talked about you with the utmost respect when people have asked about you. I have told them, you were over in Orlando doing awesome art, but you on the other hand have had a blast tearing me down. It’s a shame, but I forgive you.
Humbly,
Jake Estrada
