WE KILL THE DEAD 
 An Upcoming Comic Book From theblood-shed.com. Spectacular Action Combined With Horror As 
Tribute To The Slasher Genre By John Lepper


 DIABOLIQUE  NEWS UPDATE 
For you connoisseurs that love a horror and action comic jam packed with cameos from 17 slashers/maniacs that starred in 17 popular slasher movies... you're going to literally drool over the new horror slasher comic WE KILL THE DEAD. The thrilling new comic book concept is the brainchild of author John Lepper. Along with the very talented artist Bryan Revell and Alex Giles for lettering, Mr. Lepper has officially been given permission to use a host of recognisable horror movie slasher icons who will be making cameo appearances throughout the pages of his "love letter to the slasher genre."
    SynopsisIt is about a secret government agency whose mission is to combat thano-sapiens, undead killers such as Jason or Freddy. This first story of a planned trilogy entails Joanna, a survivor of a thano-sapien attack at her college, who enlists in the SSTB (Supernatural Special Tactics Bureau). Shortly after she joins, Jack the Ripper returns as a demonic being, last seen when SSTB leader, Nathan Scrimm, blew his head off with a grenade in the 1980's. Now Jo, Nate, and the more-than-slightly-disturbed Agent Cooper race to discover the secret to stopping the legendary serial killer while battling an army of thano-sapiens under Jack's control.

        MESSAGE FROM  JOHN LEPPER                                              
       

    "Hi everybody! This is John Lepper and horror is my life. Ever since my dad showed me Halloween when I was a teenager, I have been obsessed with horror and, in particular, slashers. While I was in high school, I came with an idea for a story about a government agency that fights slashers. That was almost a decade ago. Now I own and write for theblood-shed.com, a horror news site. I produce, act, and do special effects for horror films. And I am now, with the help of artist Bryan Revell and letterer Alex Giles, ready to make my intriguing story a reality." 


      WE KILL THE DEAD is a horror/action comic that is a love letter to the slasher genre. It is about a secret government agency whose mission is to combat thano-sapiens, undead killers such as Jason or Freddy. This first story of a planned trilogy entails Joanna, a survivor of a thano-sapien attack at her college, who enlists in the SSTB (Supernatural Special Tactics Bureau).
       Shortly after she joins, Jack the Ripper returns as a demonic being, last seen when SSTB leader, Nathan Scrimm, blew his head off with a grenade in the 1980's.

    What We Need and What You Get

       To make this comic a reality, we needs funds. I have been in contact with a publishing company up in Canada and have received a quote where I can print 5000 units of a 32 page comic book for about $2,000. "We Kill The Dead" is a four issue mini series, for a total of $8,000 for 5000 units of the full run. We hit that, and the first issue will be out as soon as January 1st of 2016! We have some great perks. We have issues, signed items, Indiegogo exclusive tee shirts and prints, mp3's, opportunities to be drawn into the book, the list goes on! And it all leads up to an amazing horror comic written by a horror fan for horror fans!

      The Impact

        This is a horror comic written by a horror fan for other horror fans. If you like slasher films, action movies, or horror comics, this is going to be a story you don't want to miss! This is a love letter to the slasher genre! 
        We are also, with our 17 cameos from different independently owned characters, breaking a world record for most separately owned characters appearing in a comic book crossover and as such we plan to get this record certified by Guinness upon publication! So, not only is this comic a slice of awesome, it's a slice of awesome that makes history!

        Risks & Challenges

          This is an independently published comic. We don't have the backing of a huge company like Marvel or DC. That limits our audience. I will overcome this by drawing on my contacts in the horror genre. Many of the owners of the cameo characters will be pushing the book, we will be putting up articles on theblood-shed.com and contacting our friends at other horror sites for coverage as well, and we will use social media to our advantage to build an audience across dozens of horror and comic book fan groups.
