I’m a bit late this week, but I think it’s deserved as all the offerings in this week’s Kickster Round Up are seriously spooky and thrilling!
We’re starting with Rage by Jimmy Palmiotti and Scott Hampton.
An action packed, dramatic story of survival amongst global chaos.
Rage follows Braden Radovick as he embarks on a cross-country journey to find his daughter Friday after a catastrophic event takes place, leaving the world in a state of panic and survival. Thrown into chaos, the world struggles to reset itself while coping with the changes, forcing everyone into a traumatic fury for self-preservation. Braden must use all his resources and skills, while struggling with his unfortunate past, to find his daughter.
(stay tuned to the site to see a more in depth look at Rage later on today)
There is also, Zenescope’s Van Helsing Graphic Novel Boxed Set by Joe Brusha.
Nine volumes of blood-curdling stories collected with new book covers in a beautifully designed box.
Collecting for the first time ever, in one iconic and must-have boxed set, the first nine graphic novels of Zenescope Entertainment’s smash hit, vampire slaying, bad ass monster hunter, Van Helsing! Follow her adventures as she takes on vampires, werewolves, mummies and Dracula himself in this can’t miss, can’t put down series of modern day action-horror at its finest.
Let’s not forget, Lady Lovecraft by Mike Shea.
Back when a woman’s only choice was a husband, if she wasn’t careful, she could end up with a real monster.
Lilith Hawthorne is a young woman trapped in an old house in a seaside village by her tyrannical grandmother. As a dank fog settles over the house, Lil starts hearing voices… talking about her. Soon the voices start calling her into the basement. Is she going insane or is there something beyond comprehension down there? What she finds is not what she…or you…will be expecting.
And, I’m pretty excited for, The Book of Barb by J. Burrello. (one of my very dearest friends is named Barb)
A completely cool collection of barbarian webcomic adventures.
The Book of Barb will chronicle the entire Barb saga thus far. Whether she’s battling the terrible Skelemen of the Dwunge, accidentally becoming the Queen of the Sea, atomizing Kornog’s ex, or engaging in a barbarian standoff, Barb never falters in her resolve to destroy anyone who gets in her way. And you’ll get all 130+ pages of her adventures bound altogether.
And lastly, and probably not as scary, The OUT Side: Trans & nonbinary comic anthology edited by Vincent Kao.
Journeys to truth and self-acceptance from 16 comic artists. Foreword by Julia Kaye.
The goal is to assemble a fantastic group of open trans and nonbinary artists who will share their journeys of self-discovery and acceptance. Moreover, the book will be safe-for-work, so teens and tweens who otherwise might not have access will see themselves represented and affirmed.
*Remember if you’re into any of these campaigns, you can help to fund them! Help them make become reality!
