Earlier this month, Fanboy Comics shared that fellow publisher DangerKatt launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the first full issue of Bloodworth, a thriller about an FBC squad in the near future that can probe people’s memories to solve crimes. Written by Daniel Corey (Moriarty, Red City, DangerKatt’s Prophet) and illustrated by Chris Fenoglio (Red City, Orphan Black, Weird Kids), the series initiated through a digital one-shot on ComiXology to rave reviews. Now, the creators have teamed up with rock musician Alexx Calise to release an official Bloodworth theme song!

“We are so excited to be partnering with Alexx on our BLOODWORTH Issue #1 Kickstarter,” said BLOODWORTH writer Daniel Corey. “PULL IT (BULLET) is a searing rock anthem that perfectly encapsulates a feeling of anger mixed with longing, and delivers a thundering sonic landscape that points to the future.

Praise for BLOODWORTH:
“Daniel Corey’s incredible knack for world-building is on full display in BLOODWORTH. The sights, sounds, and characters are vibrant and intricate, and the story is brimming with possibilities!” – Barbra Dillon, Managing Editor, Fanboy Comics
“It’s good fun, and thought-provoking for those who enjoy some modern tech-dystopian drama.” – Stranger Worlds
“The premise of the book should immediately evoke TOTAL RECALL, but in reverse. Instead of fake memories being created for one person’s entertainment, genuine memories are being broadcasted for everybody’s entertainment…[Philip K.] Dick came back over and over again to human memory, its reliability, and how our memories make us human. This comic is doing that, too.” – Flickering Myth
BLOODWORTH Issue #1 will be a 32-page comic, funding at Kickstarter.com from March 1st to 31st, 2016. The script is by Daniel Corey, art by Chris Fenoglio, letters by Dave Lanphear. The campaign will offer a variant cover by Darick Robertson.
