Last week on the show we mentioned an upcoming Kickstarter for Warlock 5, a continuation of the 1980s sci-fi series from Aircel Comics, that followed the adventures of five guardians from different dimensions that had to band together to protect all of reality.
Well, the Kickstarter for the project is now live! You can check out the video above and then go here to official Kickstarter page for more info on the project, as well as a list of backer rewards.
From the Kickstarter page:
Five guardians protect the multiverse against the chaos that lurks outside the boundaries of reality. There's only one problem: they hate each other.
Originally created by Gordon Derry and Denis Beauvais, Warlock 5 was published by Barry Blair, a Canadian comic book publisher, artist and writer, known for launching Aircel Comics in the 1980s. A fierce advocate for innovation in the themes, genres, and types of illustrations, Blair helped to bring titles to life that broke the narrative and graphic boundaries at the time — including Warlock 5.
The new Warlock 5 Kickstarter seeks to fund this continuation of the Aircel Comics classic fantasy masterpiece. This 2017 reboot is written by CULLEN BUNN and JIMMY JOHNSTON, illustrated by JEFFREY EDWARDS with colors by ANDY POOLE, letters by ED DUKESHIRE, and designs by EDWARD LAVALLEE and SHAWN T. KING.
This saga of rivalry, betrayal, magic, dragons, and killer robots is aiming for a 60-page full-color (hard cover) original graphic novel; however, we need your help getting there!
Stay tuned for tomorrow's episode of Secret identity, which features an interview with Warlock 5 artist Jeffrey Edwards!
