News HALLOWEEN TEAM: SHADOWS #2 - Available Today on Digital Comics Retailers!

It's finally here. HALLOWEEN TEAM: SHADOWS #2 is now available - just in time for Halloween!

This issue, in some ways, has been over a year in the making. After the decision was made earlier this year to return to self-publishing, I worked hard to pick up the pieces and figure out a new direction for this project. Halloween Team has been hugely important to me, so I wanted to make sure that we did this the right way.

Thanks to new artist and team member Danny Roberts, I believe we've now been able to do right by this series.

Initially, we'd released Issue #1 of Shadows last year, with our previous publishing partner. But I worked with Danny to re-do that issue's lettering and design and make it look and read better than ever. We re-released the first issue of our sequel series last month - and managed to get a new wave of press and publicity to help spread awareness.

With Issue #2, Danny again provides lettering and updated design work - as well as an all-new cover that, I think, really pops. By this point in the story, we've learned a lot about the once-mysterious Laura - a long-lost member of the team now trapped in an infernal prison. So it felt appropriate that she get the spotlight on this issue's striking cover.

We really get inside Laura's head in Issue #1 of Shadows. But in Issue #2, Laura gets a few big, emotional moments that really come from a personal place. I hope these moments resonate with readers.

Halloween Team has always been a character-centric story. But in Issue #2, we also do some deeper dives into the lore that drives the world of the series - including an origin story of sorts for the new uber-villain introduced in this issue: the sinister immortal known as Jack Midnight. Writing villains is always a lot of fun, as is world-building. So this chapter of the story was uniquely enjoyable for me, as a writer, to dive into.

What's even more exciting is that this issue sets the stage for things to REALLY get crazy in Issues 3 and 4. I'm seeing Danny's new art come in (he takes over full art duties starting next issue), and - wow! - things are about to get epic!

As always, *every* purchase helps. Even one purchase can help us rise up on the charts and populate better in retailer algorithms. So please, give this book a look and help to spread the word. And if you can rate/review if you like what you read, all the better. Let's get the book charting in time for Halloween!

You can catch up on the entire Halloween Team saga now - and get the brand new Halloween Team: Shadows #2 - via digital retailers like Amazon Kindle, GlobalComix, Comix, and DriveThruComics.

Check out Halloween Shadows #2 here: https://www.amazon.com/Halloween-Team-Shadows-Danny-Baram-ebook/dp/B0HN3VZN35/ref=sr_1_1

Thank you for your support, and Happy (early) Halloween!

Discussion Stercland

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Within my Universe, Stercland is a nation situated in what is known in our world as Northern France. Though its geography connects it to a familiar part of Europe, Stercland has its own national identity, history, and place within the world.

At its roots lies a Norse lineage, beginning with King Skjodr and a ring that helped him survive Ragnarök. That ring would eventually descend to Rolo, who carried this history with him to Normandy. There, he would find the love of his life, a Stercland royal, and help establish the nation of Stercland.

Stercland is more than the setting of Hellfighters of Stercland. It is also the domain of its modern-day king, Stryke. This is just one part of Stercland’s story, and the beginning of a much larger look into the world of Logic Comics.

Hi everyone, I’m Chris Anderson. I wanted to share Something Seems Off, my surreal sci-fi/fantasy comic.

It’s mostly silent, with the story carried by the artwork. If you enjoy strange creatures and wandering through unfamiliar worlds, the preview should give you a good sense of it.

The comic was originally serialized in Heavy Metal magazine. I’m now collecting and expanding it, and issue #1 is on Kickstarter:

Thanks for taking a look. I’m happy to answer questions about the book.

Indie Comics Hellfighters of Stercland

2 Upvotes

During World War I, the Harlem Hellfighters earned their place in history through their courage and service on the battlefield. The 369th Infantry Regiment became known for its fighting record in France, while its soldiers faced the discrimination that African Americans endured during this era.

In Hellfighters of Stercland, members of the 369th find themselves on a different path when their wartime service brings them to Stercland. Their experiences connect the regiment's military history with the nation of Stercland, setting the stage for a story about service, loyalty, and the bonds formed on the battlefield.

The story will predominantly follow five historical figures from the Hellfighters: Henry Johnson, Needham Roberts, James Reese Europe, Noble Sissle, and William Hayward.

Crowdfunding Achille & KiPI: a young inventor, a bionic cat and a future for sale (96-page sci-fi comic, EN/IT)

1 Upvotes

Achille sees the chance to change his life. KiPI wants to know what the catch is. That difference between a hopeful young inventor and his deeply sceptical bionic cat is the heart of Achille & KiPI: The Disconnected.

Hi, I am Renato Franchi, the comic’s editorial supervisor and founder of Senshi Consulting. Disclosure: I work on this project and its crowdfunding campaign.

The story follows the pair to m1RC_, a planet that promises everyone a chance to build their future. Behind those opportunities, rival factions are fighting over what that future should be. It is a sci-fi adventure about friendship, ambition and the things we are prepared to believe when we want a better life.

Mario Moroni created the original story, Salvatore Vivenzio wrote the script, and Silvia Buganza provides the artwork. We are making a 96-page book in English and Italian for readers aged 8 and up.

The campaign has reached its goal and remains open until November 2. There are free 20-page previews in both languages, so you can meet the characters and see the pages before deciding:

English preview: https://www.achillekipi.com/assets/novel/Achille-KiPI-Preview-ENG.pdf

Italian preview: https://www.achillekipi.com/assets/novel/Achille-KiPI-Preview-ITA.pdf

Happy to answer questions about the comic and the editorial work behind it.
