Hi,

I hope you're well and that 2022 is going to be fantastic.

We're kicking off the year with Part One of our latest Lovecraft adaptation 'The Thing on the Doorstep'. Adapted by me, with art by Willi Roberts and letters by Rob Jones. 

Arkham Asylum, 1933, Daniel Upton inexplicably shoots his lifelong friend Edward Derby in the face, killing him instantly. What would drive Daniel to perform such an horrific act? Who was Edward Derby, really? And is he, in fact, dead?

As always, we have some limited and early-bird rewards, so if you want a chance to grab one, or just want to know when we go live, click or tap the image above or the link below and then select 'Notify me on Launch'.

Latest Kickstarter News
over 2 years ago – Sat, Oct 16, 2021 at 02:46:47 AM

Hi,

I hope you're keeping well.

We've launched another Kickstarter, and as it's a horror book with Lovecraftian undertones, thought you might be interested.

Hob’s Lane is a Lovecraftian kitchen-sink psychodrama, in which widowed theoretical physicist John Tate is sure he can bring his murdered wife back from the abyss, but the abyss has other ideas.

The Newest Rant recently said (in their 5 out of 5 star review)...

"Instilled with a great deal of fear, dread, and those kinds of things you'd want from a horror comic!"
