Our friend Tyrell swung by the show this week to announce his newest campaign that has been 5 years in the making!

We got a taste of ERIS and the complete collection is available now!

"ERIS is a sci-fi action comic exploring power, violence, and consciousness that captures the energy of 90’s comics, the thought-provoking formalism of alternative comics, and the excess of 80’s action films. ERIS takes readers on a journey of insane fight scenes, strange rituals, and dark nightmares. The complete collection includes issues 1 & 2, as well as the 50+ page final chapter. 5 years in the making!"

Make sure to check out the campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1619738205/eris-the-complete-collection
