Project #1: Darkest Rout: Book One
What it’s about: Darkest Rout is an original fantasy thriller graphic novel created by American Pavilion at Cannes Film Festival Award–winning writer/actor Antwone Barnes. Headlining the spectacular, grisly artwork is acclaimed artist and video game director Kip Henderson. Assisting with the majority of this Kickstarter’s sample panel pages is Orange-based freelance artist Omar Montoya. It’s a suspense-driven, dark journey through a mystical world beyond the veil of our realm. Beneath its fanciful demonic conflicts, the story explores themes such as loss, courage, and finding our way to the light.

Project #3: Outsider
What it’s about: What’s grief, but the love of who hasn’t died just yet? Ineino has spent days and nights with these words rambling inside her head, for her heart was numb, her ears deaf, and her touch frozen dead. She had a burden that has completely vanished as soon as she had taken her right. And now, convalescent, wronged, and confused, at last she has made up her mind. There is a place beyond the first Drops, within the bowels of the mountains. A shrine, someone told her once. A place where to lie alive, a place where this shivering mouth inside her belly could shut down once and for all. This is her journey.
