The Comic Source

Jace of sits down with Chris Yates to talk about his creator-owned project Marcus Walker: Kingslayer Protocol, a Kickstarter campaign centered on a mech vs kaiju story with a strong focus on the relationship between two brothers. Chris shares his background working in entertainment, including his time at Disney and in IP development, and how that experience eventually led him to pursue his own storytelling. The conversation covers the origins of the project, its thematic focus on grief, identity, and family, and the decision to prioritize character over traditional genre exposition. They also discuss collaborating with artist Simone Ragazzoni, assembling a lineup of variant cover artists, structuring the Kickstarter campaign with fulfillment in mind, and what it’s like transitioning from supporting other creators to launching a project of his own.
