The Leading Hispanic Voice in Science Fiction, best-seller and award-winner Jon del Arroz is back with another fantastic comic project.
DEUS VULT!
A crusade into another realm...
...leads to the deadliest of evils.
Sir Domingo, Spanish Knight and Holy Crusader, is blessed with a vision on his return from his triumphant conquest in the Holy Land. The Holy Grail appears in the sky, leading him on an adventure to another realm where demons and monstrosities lay waste to all of creation.
He discovers a strange race of people called the Kityin, who seem more kin to Earth's cats than they do humanity. He alone can lead them to salvation and away from the tyrannical rule of The Demon King.
Should he fail, not only the Kityin but all the people of all the realms will be destroyed!
DEUS VULT is a 66-page crusader fantasy graphic novel which will bring back memories of great comics like CONAN THE BARBARIAN and THE MIGHTY THOR.
The story is written by #1 Bestselling and award-winning Sci-Fi author, Jon Del Arroz, artist Jesse White, and colorist Matt Crotts with a special variant cover by our good friend Miss Sashi!
Jon's gotten very good at this sort of thing. He's all ready to go; this campaign is to finance actual production and distribution, since the writing is already done and you can see below that some of the artwork is also. When he said he's going for that classic Savage Sword of Conan look he means it, because that's what immediately leapt to mind when I saw these samples below.
While not as low as the novel campaigns I boost, you can still get in rather cheap. $12 gets you a digital copy, and $25 a physical one; this is one you want on your shelves, so I advise going for the hard copy. The bigger backer benefits include original art, being drawn into the book, complete sets of Jon's comics to date, and a Napa wine tour with the man himself. Yes, that last Perk is pricy; if you take it, bring the spouse with you.
This is the sort of thing we who are dissatified with what Establishment entertainment insultingly offers to us should support. We must find our own creatives, encourage them to create works that actually entertain us, and patronize them when they do. Now's the time.
You can find the campaign here at Indiegogo.
