So, We Had A Little Accident
Well, my wife and children did. They were in a minor car accident (everyone in both vehicles are perfectly fine) coming home from the National Zoo in Washington, D.C.. My wife was a little shaken up as the sideswipe happened on her side of the vehicle, but we’re processing things through insurance now.
So, I’m a little behind on a few things, including updates! Check out what’s crowdfunding right now:
NIGHTCARE: Adventures in Babysitting Meets The Avengers
DOPE Concept! Cool Characters! Excellent Story! Terrific Art!
Have you seen this book, yet?? What Scott Fogg has put together is one of the more unique and really exciting concepts I’ve ever seen in superhero comics: what happens to the super-powered children of superheroes when the latter has to go save the day? The answer, of course, is NIGHTCARE!
XION STUDIOS (new site coming soon!) is producing this great book with Scott, and I’m hosting the campaign on my account. I hope you’ll open the door and check out what we have inside!
This wonderful little book (well, it’s 48 pages, so “not-so-little book”) is LIVE on KICKSTARTER right now!
Go check out the campaign and consider giving it some support! If you can, please also share the campaign on social media and tag Scott and/or myself. We’ll be eternally grateful. 😊
Adelita 3017 - A Mad Max Style Post-
Apocalyptic Thriller!
Created by my friend & collaborator Ariel Medel, this comic has non-stop action, adventure, thrills, and chills set in a devastated future Mexico. (Issue 1 of 6)
Coming to Kickstarter on October 18th!
Set in a futuristic post-apocalyptic world, the story follows Adelita, a character based on the archetype of the female soldier in the Mexican Revolution. Heavily influenced by Mexican folklore, with elements and visual settings similar to Mad Max: The Road Warrior, 80’s action and martial art movies, and dystopian sci-fi with a fantasy aura reminiscent of Fables, making the series a perfect blend to appeal to a wide range of fans!
You’ll find anthropomorphic coyotes, witches, giant iguanas, robots, rotten flesh skeletons, and of course a plethora of Mexican characters! All packed into an action-adventure comic with a compelling story and a mystery that will unravel throughout the mini-series.
The story follows Adelita and her dog Xolotl as she tries to save a world ravaged by war, famine, and disease, all while trying to discover her true identity. Set in the year 3017, in post-apocalyptic Mexico, after centuries of war and destruction of the environment, empires have risen and fallen, and humanity is on the brink of extinction after a disease has turned many of its survivors into mindless rotten beings more machine than human. What little humans are left are scattered along the wastelands and struggle to survive under the constant menace of the vicious gangs commanded by Mechanicus and Doña Masacres.

This book is SO GOOD. I backed the first issue and I’m a huge fan of what Aaron and co. are doing here. It’s really, really good. Go check out this campaign and let Aaron know I sent ya!
Granite State Punk - BREAKING EDGE - Punk Rock! Horror!
Granite State Punk: Breaking Edge is a rare, gritty look at Witches, New Hampshire, Addiction, and PUNK ROCK.
I’m a HUGE fan of Travis’s and I am dying to read this book. And if this isn’t cool enough of an endorsement coming from me, here’s this: Travis will have a role in architecting a different corner of the XION UNIVERSE starting as early as 2023…
Enjoy!!
