My comic book series - The Resurrected

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Hi guys,

For those who haven't noticed, I've spent the past year and a half creating/writing a comic book series named, 'The Resurrected.'

This week I will send out the first ever eight page preview for the first issue. Join our mailing list if you'd like a copy of the preview:

The logline of the story is:

“In a future where death is not always the end, a lonely yet resolute Aboriginal-Australian detective challenges the world’s most powerful corporation in a battle to save his people from almost certain extinction. If he is to succeed, he must re-discover his Indigenous roots while also finally learning to overcome the loss of his family who died in the techno-plague that ravished Australia five years earlier.”

The Resurrected comic touches on several philosophical themes that I feel particularly engaged with, including those linked to death and mortality, identity and the nature of freedom and responsibility. It also delves into social-political issues, most significantly the ongoing destructive effects that the centuries old invasion of Australia has had on the Indigenous population.

I'm working alongside an extremely talented and experienced team, who have all worked for well-known comic book publishers -  Crizam Zamora is the artist, Salvatore Aiala the colourist and Erica Schultz is the editor. We've just hooked a big name for the variant cover but we'll keep that a secret for the timebeing

The first issue is complete and will be out in a few months. We will be self-publishing it and running a Kickstarter in mid-Feb as a way of streamlining pre-orders and pre-selling some merchandise. There will be PDF copies of issue one available in April and the print copy should be available in June. We're already deep into issue two so that should arrive hot on the heels of the first issue.

If you're not into comics but just want to support me, I'd love for you guys to like our FB page:

Was for me

I didn't realize there was more than what was embedded in the email. I just went back and clicked on the link.

When I read it properly and clicked on the download PDF thing at the bottom it worked fine on iPad

Christian, your mate is talented artist, the images are great my friend

good luck on the new venture, looks great

Hey thanks guys.

I should have put the PDF link up top and made it more obvious. Live and learn I guess...

First review is in! I love this website so I'm stoked!
