  • August: Purgatory Underground and Evie and the Helsings

    Will Allred and Kevin Joseph meet up with comic creators cowdfunding projects one last time before they hand the show off to a mystery person (who will be introduced in a second.

    The first project, which can be found on Kickstarter is Evia and the Helsings, a tale of the last living Van Helsing who would rathe rock out than vamp hunt, but who might not have much of a choice soon. Steve Bryant (writer) and Don Cadenas (artist) joined us to talk about the genesis of the story and where it might go. It can be found here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/stevebryant/evie-and-the-helsings-12

    The second campaign is found on Zoop.gg, and is called August: Purgatory Underground. Write/Illustrator Benjamin Morse joined us to tell us how he conceived of August as a realistic reboot of an 80s cartoon tv show that neve existed. He also explained why he chose Zoop over Kickstarter for this campaign.

    It can be found here: https://zoop.gg/c/augustpurgatoryunderground

  • Cthulhu Invades Neverland

    It's a wild time as Kevin and Will invite some of the contributors to Cthulhu Invades Neverland to introduce us to the third and sort of final installment of the Cthulhu Invades anthology series. The first two installments had the Old God and his minions attacking OZ and Wonderland, this time he has his eye on Peter and Wendy's island paradice Neverland.

    The campaign can be reached at Cthulhuinvades.com

    It was a great night as we fought through a myriad of technical difficulties, a bug attack, and finally a discussion about one of the most daring, possibly foolhardy (but possibly brilliant) ideas coming to Kickstarter next year: Hospice. This one Broke Kevin like Jeremy Bearimy broke Chidi in The Good Place.

    And all of this on a school night, kids.
