MONSTER MATADOR - VOLUME 1

Hey Jumpers,
Quick plug here... I wanted to let you all know that the campaign for the deluxe collected edition of my absolutely favorite comic book - MONSTER MATADOR by Steven Prince - is LIVE here on Kickstarter for just eight more days.
MM is a howling good time... it follows a Matador, in post apocalyptic world, fighting to make life better for his young daughter.
It plays like Danny McBride and Jody Hill made a Santo movie and then gleefully peed on it. It's completely and utterly bonkers, so goddamn smart and funny. I honestly can't recommend it enough.
This is a deluxe 184 page collected edition that includes the popular Tango of the Matadors and Afripocalypse arcs PLUS an ALL NEW STORY that sees the Matador reuniting with his daughter and setting up the next phase of the epic AND a Study Guide by Dr. Theresa Rojas (Professor, Modesto Junior College).
Anyway, this was a first-minute back for me and I HIGHLY recommend you give it a try. You won't be sorry. If you need more reason to dive in, the art was done by Ringo-nominated BANJAX/THE JUMP artist Fabio Alves.

Hey Jumpers!
Be sure to check out ASSASSIN G, some more ass-kicking Wuxia fun from TV writer Jen Troy (Supergirl), He Tao, and all of my friends over at Immortal Studios!
The year is 1982. As the lead assassin for the powerful Vermilion Pavillion, Margot Gan’s sole mission in life is to eliminate the powerful families of the Seven Cultivations Alliance to avenge their betrayal of her mother, the formidable Shui Hongshao.
Trained by Hongshao, Margot is virtually unstoppable as the ghostlike ASSASSIN G. However, when Margot faces off against the Yueyang Family’s own star JP Yin, she finds a mutual admiration as they try to defeat the other.
Soon, torn between their loyalties to their families, the kindred spirits come together in a forbidden romance that complicates everything about what they thought they believed.

Hey Jumpers!
LAST CHANCE! You have JUST 24 HRS LEFT to get my latest and greatest comic book fit - the Wuxia Kung Fu epic FA SHENG: ORIGINS from Immortal Studios - on Kickstarter! Head on over HERE and check out all of the fun/high jinx!
Part historical drama, part philosophical enlightenment play, three parts ass-kicking kung fu trip, this is quite simply one of the best things I've ever written and I know you're going to love it! Head on over to the campaign page and grab your copy RIGHT NOW: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/theadept2/fa-sheng-origins-1-by-rylend-grant-and-dexter-wee?ref=4wwh5m
Fa Sheng is a death-cheating, mind-bending Shaolin Master… but he carved a long bloody road to get there. Fa Sheng’s story begins in the latter days of the 19th century when the propaganda and carnage of China's Boxer Uprising force him to reevaluate his purpose in life, to dedicate himself to helping those in need. It isn’t easy. Between Fa Sheng and his goal of enlightenment stand ruthless adversaries, backstabbing power grabbers and cowardly charlatans… any of whom would gladly dispose of anyone in their way.
"You’re not born into enlightenment. It’s earned. It’s fought for, tooth and nail, over time. It is too often a byproduct of tragedy and strife. In FA SHENG: ORIGINS, we watch as our titular martial hero is forced through the meat grinder of the Boxer Uprising, of China’s Warlord Era. He witnesses unspeakable evil and is dealt horrible defeat--but he rises, in the end, from the ashes of the carnage, a changed man, a better man, an enlightened man with a mission, deputized by the powers that be in the fight against all that Dharmically ails us." -- Fa Sheng: Origins writer, Rylend Grant

P.S. - Some close friends have some campaigns running currently that you should absolutely check out:
CANNIBALS ON MARS is a 48 page, perfect-bound, one-shot that delivers blood-soaked space horror that comic fans can really sink their teeth into.
Ever since the ancients fixed their gaze skyward, human beings have marveled at the planets stretched before them. Heretics, heroes, science, and sacrifice all advanced our understanding of the stars, until finally, in 2027, earthlings established the first functioning colony on another planet.
The RH7 Colonies on Mars: a terraforming series of interconnected outposts inhabited by a bold set of international astronauts, scientists, engineers, and psychologists. Their mission was twofold: to develop a sustainable environment for eventual, large-scale migration and to prove that human beings--despite their differences, could work together to create a fledgling new society built on trust, camaraderie, and the common good.
Then all communication from earth was cut off.
The colonists continued their mission.
They thrived. They survived.
They lived, loved, and lost.
Five years passed.
And now here we are…
CANNIBALS ON MARS
JUST 60 HOURS LEFT TO BACK THIS ONE! CHECK IT OUT HERE!
PBOW: WORLD WAR BITCH No. 3, a 24-page, saddle-stitch comic reuniting the creative team behind RED XMAS from Scout Comics.
Six pregnant women go back in time and accidentally kill a young Hitler -- unleashing a nightmare future! Now with mad scientist Nikola Tesla acting as Charlie to their Angels, they must save the world from the evil Exalted Father... before their water breaks!
Think of it as The Handmaid's Tale meets Kill Bill.
