QUEEN OF HELL: INITIUM Comic Series Kickstarter

      Cecilia was born to serve the demon lord Udoroth. Heaven tried to turn Cecilia against her diabolical nature. But neither side considered how strong-willed Cecilia can be! Once she learns the truth about herself, and about those she thought she knew best, all bets are off. Will Cecilia help Udoroth conquer Heaven? Will she aid the Angelic forces to defeat evil? Or will she forge her own path of destruction...as the Queen of Hell?!

QUEEN OF HELL INITIUM - Kickstarter

 

         We finally launched the first Kickstarter campaign for this great project Queen of Hell that I have been preparing for a long time with my American partners A Sound of Thunder. I leave here the presentation of the project from the Kickstarter page, regarding the comic series we are doing:

      Queen of Hell: Initium is one story told in both original music and a comic book series! And while the music and comics can be enjoyed separately, they combine to tell a greater story for maximum effect! Each song ties directly to one issue of the comic, sometimes elaborating on events seen in the comic, and often adding details between the panels!  The music is by metal band A Sound of Thunder (that's us!) and the comic, edited directly by the band, is written by Rafer Roberts with art by Mike Ratera, colors by Diego L. Parada & Max Bayo, and letters by Crank! The main cover artwork is by Dusan Markovic, with variant cover art by Joseph Schmalke.

     And here the direct link to this first Kickstarter, you still have time to participate:   http://kck.st/3SGlKPO

       I will show you soon here the character designs and previews of Queen of Hell pages.

.............................................................................................................................................

        Por fin lanzamos la primera campaña Kickstarter para éste gran proyecto Queen of Hell que estoy preparando desde hace mucho tiempo con mis partners americanos A Sound of Thunder. Os dejo aquí la presentación del proyecto desde la página Kickstarter, en lo referido a la serie de cómic que estamos haciendo:

       Queen of Hell: Initium es una historia contada tanto en música original como en una serie de cómics. Y aunque la música y el cómic pueden disfrutarse por separado, se combinan para contar una historia más amplia y con mayor efecto. Cada canción se relaciona directamente con un número del cómic, a veces ampliando los acontecimientos vistos en el cómic, y a menudo añadiendo detalles entre los paneles.  ¡La música es de la banda de metal A Sound of Thunder (¡somos nosotros!) y el cómic, editado directamente por la banda, está escrito por Rafer Roberts con arte de Mike Ratera, colores de Diego L. Parada y Max Bayo, y letras de Crank! El arte de la portada principal es de Dusan Markovic, con arte de portada variante de Joseph Schmalke.

        Y aquí el enlace directo a éste primer Kickstarter, todavía estáis a tiempo de participar:    http://kck.st/3SGlKPO

       Os iré mostrando pronto por aquí los diseños de los personajes y previews de las páginas Queen of Hell.
