At night, there are strange noises coming from within the walls, and with the help of the county sherriff, Malinda Claire, Jane soon discovers it's something much more terrifying than rats in the walls.   Featuring 2017 ICFFA Actress of the Year, Jamie Bernatte (@jamiebernadett), as Jane Borchardt and the Unwritable Rant podcast's Juliette Miranda (@morningneurosis) as Sheriff Malinda Claire, Kindred Homecomings, will be released as a full-color three-issue limited comic book series.  Head over to Snug Comics to pre-order your copy and check out a few pages from the book as well!   SungComics.com @SnugWork   CannedAirPodcast.com @CannedAirPod   Society6.com/CannedAirPod
