I have a list of Kickstarters focused on comics here. There are quite a few here and so I’m not going to highlight them all, but one that really caught my eye is Kill Transit Tanager Through Karl Kerschl. I saw the art and immediately got Samus vibes and was intrigued. It sounds like a pretty cool comic. It’s also important to note that Rise of Izta launched this week and is almost over already, so hurry up if you like those. Which of these projects are you most interested in and what other projects should we look at? Let us know in the comments below.

54+ pages, full-throttle finale of the IMPOSSIBLE TEAM-UP storyline.
The fourth and final team-up book! In a story this big, it needs EVERYONE. Who is the big bad guy? Certainly not Krampus. Holly’s former mentor is a determined, sadistic anti-Santa who wants to spread misery, but his only “power” is a whip with razor-sharp barbs. It’s not like he found a source of unlimited – uh-oh.

Slaughterhouse farm
-
Hellbound Media
-
Blood. Dead. Pigs. Grindhouse graphic horror novel.
Slaughterhouse Farm is a blood-soaked love letter to the grindhouse horror classics of the 1970s and 1980s. The horror of The Hills Have Eyes of Texas Chain Saw Massacre moved to the isolated mountains of North Wales. There’s tongue-in-cheek humor and a mysterious plot to uncover – but this comic is still filthy as hell, with beheadings, impalement and dismembered limbs to keep gore hounds happy. The story opens with Frankie and Julian taking a minibus full of troubled teens for a weekend in Snowdonia – but horror literally awaits just around the corner in the twisted form of Pigfucker!
