Nikki St Clair was the sweetest, most talented actor in the city until she was cast in a horror show musical as the Tap Dance Killer. Now, unable to shake the role, this 1920s-esque bizarre mobster assassin is out on the streets dealing damage with a theatrical flair that leaves 'em, quite literally, slain in the aisles! These first two issues also feature the first appearance of a knockout new villain -- the murderous clown PUNCHLINE! Get a ringside seat as this menacing new hard-hitter steps into the squared circle and starts punching tickets on his revenge tour!
This is one of the absolute honors of my professional career. Made a quick vid when I came out of my local shop with the issue in hand.
We've crossed $9000 and unlocked UP FROM THE SKIES #1 PDF by John Pence and Erwin J. Arroza.
A trippy, dreamy survival tale and interstellar bromance between a space faring prince and the ice-age hunter who rescues him. As he works to keep the alien visitor alive, the hunter begins to realize that there is something exceptional about their time together, something sung about by his clan’s wise man, but something that still remains ... incomplete. Facing brutish predators and sly, plotting wolves, their bond grows stronger - but how can it last when their destinies are surely so different?
John Pence is also a contributor to Elsewhere Vol 2 by Unlikely Heroes. The campaign is live now.
Unlikely Heroes Studios invites you to... Relax your body and breathe deeply, completely. Observe your thoughts and let them pass through your mind without clinging. Feel the air on your skin. Ingest the entire contents of your hyperreality travel medication packet (with a sip of orange juice if desired). Observe departure safety protocols and descend to the life-support tanks in an orderly fashion. You are about to embark ... ... Elsewhere. Folded in this book is a deep mystery composed of fabulous, exciting, funny, and terrifying short comix works. Boundaries between genres, styles, moods, time, and space will appear to blur and dissolve. Industry professionals share the pages with fresh new talent. These phenomena are natural. Do not be alarmed. Your return from this voyage is not guaranteed. Nor is your sanity, nor your concept of reality. In exchange, you are relieved of limitations. You are free.

I Am Hexed by Kirsten Thompson is a supernatural political thriller. There’s magic, mystery, personal drama, and an accidentally carnivorous plant.
Witches have been a part of the political fabric of Washington D.C. since it was founded. It’s only since the 1960s that witches stood together and fought to take back the word “Hexed”. The witch-hunt for Charlie, Jaya and Florence continues in the final issue of I Am Hexed as they find themselves on the run from malevolent forces both inside and outside the government. The three witches must harness their powers to defend themselves, while unraveling a mystery that could save the entire witching community.
