Hello, backers!

Just a heads up to keep an eye out for the new campaign for DEMOCRITUS BRAND issues 3 and 4! We should be launching it soon!

While I have you, I should tell you about DRAGONRING!

Outland Entertainment just launched the campaign for DRAGONRING #1! This is a reboot/reimagination of the classic Aircel comic. It's also the first stage of a MASSIVE shared multiverse that I'll be coordinating and writing. It is gorgeously illustrated by Shannon Potratz. I hope you'll check the campaign out and throw a little support our way! You definitely want to get on the ground floor with this one!

BEYOND MORTAL is LIVE!

Hey, folks! I wanted to give you a heads up on a new project!


BEYOND MORTAL #1, a 64-page comic of superheroes and cosmic horror, is now live on  Kickstarter!  This is an important book for me, one I’ve been trying to get together for a long, long time. Artist Danny Luckert and I have been working toward this moment since 2017, and I’ve been trying to make it happen since long before that. It’s a superhero/horror comic. We’ve created our own superhero universe and our own set of heroes. We’ve also created a pantheon of elder gods set on claiming that universe as their own.   Think of it as the Avengers or JLA versus Cthulhu.   The first issue is a giant-sized whopper at 64 pages! And we’re following it up with two more issues. But we don’t want to stop there. We have numerous tales to tell in this world. We see it as becoming a massive shared universe.


In order to make that happen, of course, this first campaign needs to be a success. So... if it sounds like something you'd like, throw some support our way!


We have numerous variant covers, which will be printed in very limited quantities. We have Early Bird deals in place! We have great add-on items so you can customize your support of the project in whatever way suits you best!

BEYOND MORTAL -- Coming Soon!
about 3 years ago – Tue, Apr 06, 2021 at 11:58:52 PM

Hey, folks! I wanted to pop in real quick and tell you about a new Kickstarter project that will be launching soon! BEYOND MORTAL #1 is a 64+ page story of superheroes and cosmic horror from Danny Luckert and myself. Imagine if the Avengers or the Justice League went toe-to-toe with the minions of the Cthulhu Mythos. That's the story of heroics, horror, and survival that we're telling here. We're introducing a new team of superheroes, a new pantheon of deities, and a new comic book world that we're very excited about. You can follow the campaign at the link below. We'll be launching officially in about a week!

A quick update!

We've been getting a few questions about when the next Kickstarter for DEMOCRITUS BRAND AND THE ENDLESS MACHINE will launch. And, while I don't have a definitive answer for you yet, I can say... soon. We don't want to launch the campaign until all art assets are done for issues 3 and 4. The good news is Federico is done with issue 3 and moving on to issue 4 as we speak. So keep your eyes peeled! In fact... here are a few select panels to build some excitement for the next two issues!

So...

Almost all physical copies are in the mail.

Which, of course, is when the rug gets yanked out from under us. 

We have discovered that issue 2 has a significant printing error in it. Basically, a double-page spread in this issue was somehow replaced by a double-page spread from issue 1. Not exactly sure how it happened. But we should have caught it. It's on us. 

The wheels are turning, though, so you're gonna get the mixed up issue. 

We will fix it. 

Everyone who ordered issue 2 as part of this Kickstarter WILL get a corrected replacement, probably with a new cover,  at no additional charge. This may take a little time. Right now, we may not be able to ship and print the replacements until we do the campaign for issues 3 and 4. If you backed issue 2 with this campaign, though, you will get your copy whether or not you support the next campaign. 

Promise. 

In the meantime, the PDFS that were sent out are correct. I will also post an image of the missing pages so you can read them while reading your print editions. 

Thank you for your understanding and support. We're very sorry for this mix-up.

PS - Make sure you check your envelopes for the stickers that were shipped with your comics! Some folks who have received their packages missed them the first time around!
