We hope that you will join us in giving these projects a moment of your time (and possibly your support).
Project #1: Mary Shelley’s School for Monsters: Origins 1-3
What it’s about: The award-winning Mary Shelley’s School for Monsters series has returned!
Shel, the supernatural teen version of Mary Shelley, her monster bestie Frank, and the cute and cuddly Book of the Dead Necro are back to face off with mysterious, ancient, and formidable Watchers that have invaded the Primal Woods. This time, Shel and Frank meet Will for the first time, and he’s in big trouble.
Loyal readers and newcomers will not want to miss this next chapter–Mary Shelley’s School for Monsters: Origins 3! Origins #3 can be read as a stand-alone comic or it can be read as the next chapter in the Mary Shelley’s School for Monsters series. This is a great time to enter this magical world with one of the most endearing monster crews of all time.

Project #2: Systemic Vol. 1: A Sci-Fi Anthology
What it’s about: Systemic is a sci-fi comics anthology collecting stories of individual people at the points where societal forces clash.
In the tradition of classic science-fiction magazines like Analog and Weird Tales, we’ve gathered leading and rising stars from both mainstream and indie comics and set them loose to tell the stories that move them. We live in an unprecedented era, buffeted about by monolithic forces—cultural, technological, economic, and governmental—as intractable as the tides. They are, you might say, Systemic. These are stories of the small, the insignificant, and the infinitely critical human lives where these forces meet and mesh and grind together.

Project #3: Allison Strange #2
What it’s about: Welcome to Alaska’s Inside Passage — a land of isolated seaside towns, forgotten tragedies, and old ghosts. The eerie, continent-spanning Tongass Forest starts at your back door and doesn’t stop till the Atlantic Ocean.
There, you’ll find a store with the last gas till Juneau for truckers and more unusual travelers. Only one thing keeps the store’s sole employee sane: Sometimes, the door to the beer cave doesn’t lead to the beer cave. Sometimes, it opens to the backroom of a mysterious antique shop filled with cursed artifacts.
This is Allison Strange’s new, weird life. And it’s not exactly helping her sense of alienation.

Project #4: Ice & Bone 1-4
What it’s about: 16th Century Japan. The Country is in chaos. After centuries of rule, the central government has lost control, plunging the country into a bloody civil war. Anarchy reigns…
The fall of house ISHIDA has created a power vacuum, one that warlord YOSHIDA SUEMORO believes is rightfully his. Power and territory is his goal, and nothing will stand in his way. But the dead… do not stay silent…
