To close Black History Month, I talk to a Faqs Project favorite Anthony Stokes (Tap or Die) and AJ Ampadu (Ninjak vs Roku) to the Football Epic Silent as a Non-Verbal Quarterback overcomes his obstacles to pressure his team to victory. First, the task alone to create one of your main characters totally using American sign language brings forth the challenge of linguists within your art, because now the emotions have been heightened all within this violent gridiron game. This is a Unicorn of sorts as you usually see sports in manga really than American Comics especially Football which not many creators have tackled (pun intended). This 4 issue mini-series drops on Kickstarter on March 3rd but Ashcans will be available at Blerd-Con the first week of March.

Sidenote: AJ Ampadu is the first African American man to write Shadowman for Valiant Comics
