Image Expo is happenning right now, and no thread? Announcements so far:
"Glitterbomb" by Jim Zub and Djibril Morissette
"Afar" by Leila Del Duca and Kit Seaton
"VS" by Ivan Brandon and Esad Ribic
"Black Cloud" by Ivan Brandon/Jason Latour and Greg Hinkle
>>81518943
>"Afar" by Leila Del Duca and Kit Seaton
What's up with artists writing books but not drawing them? It's so lame, it's like with Cloonan or JH Williams III(though he drew most of Batwoman).
>Winnebago Graveyard - Alison Sampson/Steve Niles
>Horizon (Skybound) - Brandon Thomas/Juan Gedeon -- coming this July
>that tfw when Image got too big and successful, so now /co/ hates it
I wonder if Landis' book will be officially announced.
>The Hunt - Colin Larimer
>Lake of Fire - DC colorist Nathan Fairbairn/Matt Smith - July 2016
>The Divided States of Hysteria - Howard Chaykin - Winter
>>81519170
>>81519307
>>81519385
>>81519422
>literally who?
And /co/ said that Image only runs series from Big Name creators.
>>81518943
So far not much of interest besides slight disappointment at Ribic doing boring-ass Brandon's shit
I've got a list of announcement from the last 3-5 years that haven't materialized, anoyone wants to see?
>>81519640
>Juan Gedeon
>Fairbairn
>Niles
>literally who
>Prince of Cats - Ronald Wimberly
>>81519644
Please share
>>81519170
>What's up with artists writing books but not drawing them? It's so lame, it's like with Cloonan or JH Williams III(though he drew most of Batwoman).
Cloonan has straight up said in podcast interviews that she had nearly burnt out on drawing comics. Writing is basically an outlet to try something different in the comics collaboration process to keep it fresh for her while she can focus on drawing her own personal works like that sequel to Wolves she keeps saying she'll finish.
I assume it's probably the same for Del Duca. Keatinge seems like the kind of dude to be encouraging and push his partners to try writing their own works if they haven't started something already anyways.
>All these literally whos
Come on man, these are the 'HIGH PROFILE ANNOUNCEMENTS'?
>>81519943
>I only care about big names
lol
>Prima - Jen Van Meter/Rick Burchett
>>81519788
It's a reprint with some extras.

Haven't liked anything Zub has written

I love Ribic and have been waiting for him not to do Marvelshit for ages
>"Black Cloud" by Ivan Brandon/Jason Latour and Greg Hinkle
Sounds pretentious
>Winnebago Graveyard - Alison Sampson/Steve Niles
>Horizon (Skybound) - Brandon Thomas/Juan Gedeon -- coming this July
Not hugely into horror and these don't seem to be particularly unique
>Prima - Jen Van Meter/Rick Burchett
Mite b cool
>Rockstars by Joe Harris/Megan Hutchison
Mite b cool
>Romulus - Bryan Hill/Nelson Blake II
Any info on the Max Landis book yet? I'd really like to see what's he is capable on his own
>>81520115
>we want the Saga audience
Do we have any covers or visual cues to go off this? I mean, Shutter already is pretty much Saga but on Earth.
>Bryan Edward Hill joiend to introduce "Romulus," written by him and illustrated by Nelson Blake II. It's about a group called the "Order of Romulus," who are behind "all of the bad" in the world.
You can write anything you want, you got approved to do write whatever you want, you found an artist to draw whatever you want and THIS is the shit you choose to do

>>81520280
I'm only interested because of the art, Landis always gets nice artists.
>>81520246
Yeah, it's pretty original
>>81520295
>Karen Berger
HOL UP...this m8 worth a look into
>>81519307

How about we let that die instead?
>>81519788
>4 years ago, I released my first work to critical acclaim, but in less than a year it was out of print. I'm proud to announce that it's getting re-released, as it was intended, hardcover, European BD size, through @imagecomics.
Man. I'm kind of glad I never got the vertigo one with the shitty paper and binding. This thing sounds rad.
>>81520569
>Brubaker said it was their take on a vigilante story, and compared it to both "Death Wish" and early 1970s Spider-Man comics.
Sound an awful lot like a certain individual named Frank might have inspired this...
>>81520199
The description was all fantasy-sci fi waffle
>>81520295
I'll check it out obviously but I don't really get it, SUPER SURGEON GOES AROUND KILLING SUPER DISEASE SO BADASS
>>81520650
Ed never did write Frank outside of Devil in Cell Block D, did he?
>Jonathan Hickman entered to tell the crowd of "The Black Monday Murders," inspired by the real-life financial Black Monday of 1987, which he said led society to where it is now. "It's the death of the nation state, and it's kind of an environment that's ripe for financial corruption," Hickman said. "I don't need to elaborate on that, because we live in it each and every day."
>Hickman's new book
I kind of lost track of the guy, what's the status on Manhattan Projects and East of West? I remeber another book getting canned a year ago three issues in
Hickman yes!!
>The Black Monday Murders
With Tom Coker
New Hickman book Black Monday Murders. Dunno if he's doing the whole thing or has an artist
>>81520713
Ah okay. Where's a link to the synopsis or are you somehow watching the event? I'm just following Gillen's Instagram right now.
Are there any pictures of anything at all? I don't really give a shit about all these elevator pitches without any art involved. These are supposed to be comics after all
OPENA AND REMENDER YES!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>81520853
Kieron Gillen's instagram and Image comics' twitter.
>New Remender book
Holy shit, this guy doesn't sleep...he's already got so many ongoings...
>>81520853
CBR has some pictures, BC probably does too but I haven't checked.
>>81520802
>>81520819
>Hickman writing yet another book
>we still don't have Feel Better Now
Fuck you, ya fat goattee'd mother fucker.
Oh, who am I kidding? I'm still going to buy it. I've only not liked two of his Image books.
>>81520819
MP is probably taking a break because he and Pitarra are either on the outs, and because Hickman said they were working on something else after the Sun Beyond the Stars.
East of West just had a trade released last week and returns 4/20 with a B cover by Hickman himself
>>81520900
Hoping this is good. I like Opena but lately the only book I've been reading of Remender is Deadly Class.
>Remender called the book a "level up" for Opeña, who said he's inspired by Mœbius for the series
MUH DICK
>MOONSHINE - Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso

>>81520981
>>81520889

Glad to see Remender and Opena back together, and super excited to see Remender not doing another sci-fi book.
>Remender/Opena book
Fuck yea.
>>81521097
You're so cool, anon. Please teach me to be as cool as you.
>>81521097
Vertigo is really not needed now that Image exists, maaan.
>inb4 MUH TALENT AND MUH 90'S
Vertigo was only good because they held one of the best contracts at the time when it came to claiming rights and everyone wanted a bit of that and Berger was a solid editor. Image is now the best when it comes to holding rights and Vertigo is neglected pretty fucking hard by DC.
I like Shelly Bond and what she's trying to do with Vertigo but WB and DC don't fucking care, man.
>>81521253
If the rumors about Vertigo going back to basics and being the imprint that publishes darker DCU stuff are true I think that could justify their existence. Well, that and Astro City.
>MOTOR CRUSH!!!!!! (Stewart, fletcher, tarr)
>>81521341
Can't wait till the usual /pol/ vs sjw shitshow starts anew
>>81521253
I don't know why anyone would want to go to Vertigo these days. Vertigo contracts make you sign away movie and TV rights to DC. At Image you get to keep those rights.
>>81521311
The rumours said the announcement will be made at ECCC, so if it's not here in a couple of days, it's not here at all
>>81521341
Fuck off tumblr
>>81521455
Rumor is they got Gerard Way onboard as kind of a "creative-director" for the line, spearheaded by his and Becky Cloonan's Doom Patrol. I hope it's true.
>ISOLA!!!!! (Fletcher/kerschl)
>>81521559
That means no more Gotham Academy after Rebirth, right
MMMMM, Strong Female Protagonist of Color
CREATORS FOR CREATORS
>>81521253
>>81521455
Vertigo is still needed because it's good to have different labels/imprints. Besides Vertigo actually pays you to make the book, Image doesn't.
I mean what does it matter if you retain all the rights to your book if it sells like garbage and you can't pay your rent/mortgage?.
>>81521455
Some people just want to make comics, anon, not just sell off right to tv.
>>81521727
What is it about?
So what's your pull-list, lads?
I'm taking the Hickman, Azz. Remender books and might try the one edited by Berger
>>81521769
I think Prince of Cats is a pretty good example of why you would want to keep your rights. It got one printing despite the demand for it and Wimberly couldn't do jack fucking shit to cash in on the audience that wanted a piece of it.
>>81520802
Finish Dying and the Dead and Manhattan Projects first for fuck sake
>>81521834
Definitely Ribic, Opeña, Kerschl
Maybe Bru/Phillips, Azz/Risso, Berger book
Buy Prince of Cats
>>81521820
Not a comic but a funding project
http://creatorsforcreators.org/
>>81521834
Hickman, Remender, and Azz for me too. I might pick up the Ribic book too.
>>81521043
MUH dick
>>81521775
Yeah but if a TV show is gonna be made out of my shit I would at least want to see a shitload of money from it
>>81520802
this fucker announces a new book and let's his other stuff fizzle out and get delayed into oblivion
>>81521889
Jonathan Hickman wants to be the new Warren Ellis. When Ellis finally dies and melts down into a puddle of beer Hickman will be there to drink him in and gain all of his powers of starting comics and never finishing them.
>>81521097
vertigo just exists for their exclusives to write non superhero stuff
I'm not really feeling any of this desu senpaitachi
>>81522073
That's a big if.
>>81519640
Most of these won't reach 15 issues, anon.
where's the comic max
you said there will be a comic
>>81522117
Not even Moebius Opeña?
>>81522120
So what if it is? That makes it all the shittier of your vertigo comic manages to get made into a movie cuz it means your chances of striking gold again are probably very low
>>81521834
Uh...none of these really sound that interesting to be honest with you. I'll probably give Azzarello/Risso a try and that Fairbrain one.
>>81522200
Opeña doesn't even slightly resemble Moebius to me>>81522200
>>81522204
What part of "some people just want to make money" don't you get? besides, with vertigo you still own part of the damn thing and you'll still get money. In certain cases, couple of years after ti was published, the rights revert to the creative team completely and they're free to put out a trade for their comic at other publishers if they can.
>>81521834
Gonna check out Seven into Eternity and Afar. I like Greg Hinkle so I'll check out Black Cloud. Lake of Fire might be cool.
DEFINITELY grabbing the Prince of Cats hardcover. God damn, I never expected to be saved from DC's clammy cold stiff hands.
>>81522257
I also hate remender
But I said >>81522117 before I realized Chaykin announced something
>>81522257
He said his art would be inspired by Moebius in his new series, that's what I meant.
>>81518943
All these comics that will be critically acclaimed that no one will read.
Ah image
>no Graham or any of the Graham crew
Why have you forsaken us yo loser
Orc Stain 8 where
Island 6 where

>8HOUSE where
he seriously fucked up with that
>>81522405
Feels bad, man. But they kinnda shit the bed with the whole 8house-fiasco last year.
>>81521834
Azz, Remender, Berger, maybe Kerschl. Also Prince of Cats.
>>81522405
>Orc Stain 8 where
you know that sensation where your life flashes before your eyes before you die? That's been replaced with Orc Stain 8
>Island 6 where
Island is still happening. It's just been on a hiatus. We've seen the cover for issue 7
>8HOUSE where
8House looks dead. I think it's gonna be released in trades now
>Corey Lewis where
That nigga is out being a bum somewhere. Though he's finally putting out Sunbakery
>Marian and Marley where
Dunno
>More James Harvey where
dunno
>More Darlymple where
He'll be doing his own thing. Farel seems like he's always up to something even when radio silent.
>>81522405
james harvey is doing DC work now I think?
I saw him in we are robin and heard he was on batgirl
wasted on those titles in my opinion
>>81522290
>What part of "some people just want to make money" don't you get?
Well now I really don't get what you're saying, because you make a fuckton more money selling things to Hollywood than to 10000 comics readers
>>81522379
Meh, I could be inspired by Moebius but it doesn't mean I'll ever do anything worthwhile in my life
>>81522405
Island 7 is out this month or next I think and 8house was all fucked up so the only ongoing from it now is mirror
>>81521559
>Kerschl being wasted
>>81522703
>shitting on Opeña
You sound like a prick desu
>>81522405
>>81522432
>>81522461
>>81522585
>>81522703
Just remembered some more that I've seen about 8House on graham's twitter
>It was originally all under 8house title so they could have issues always coming out in 1 series even if 1 storyline was behind or something
That obviously didn't work so it's gonna relaunch as separate series like Mirror is right now
That means 8House will be a bunch of separate series
I also saw this week that the artist of arclight is finishing up the third issue
>Remender / Opena doing literally anything
haven't been excited for a new book in a while, but i will be reading this
>>81522662
He did less than 10 pages on Batgirl. I think it might be a friendly thing between him and Stewart since Stewart did some Bartkira.
Masterplasty was fucking great shit, he's amazing. I also looked up his archives on the blog and he used to upload his comics back in 2011-2012
Anyone have those?
Mylady.
>>81522405
>Marley where
I know she and Brandon are working on something. She tweeted a pile of comics she was reading for inspiration
It was Shade the Changing Man and Elektra Assassin
>>81523584
She must burn for reading big two trash.
>>81523627
Even Brandon will reads the Big 2 if he likes the people on a project, he really likeed the Infinity Gauntlet Secret Wars tie in
>>81521834
black cloud, lake of fire, the divided States of hysteria and kill or be killed
might check out moonshine for risso if my pull list has shrunk by the time any of these even come out
>>81523627
>not being a part of the cultural zeitgeist
>>81523584
So did that one Vertigo book she was on get the axe or did it finish up?
>>81523822
It got canned yeah
>>81523920
That's a bummer. I picked up the first trade but still haven't read it. Her working with Brandon is the thing I really want though so I'm glad it's happening.
>>81522405
> 8 House
Arclight #3 is coming, it got delayed because Curchland moved into a new apartment
No update on Kiem #2 though
Mirror is coming out on schedule so far
More hipster and bland crap.
Why not use superheroes? Image could get a boost in sales and become what they used to be.
>>81522405
>James Harvey
How did he do it?
>Karen "mother fucker" Berger has come back to comics
>Oversized Prince of Cats
>>81524308
Karen Berger going through Image to do a new comic does not imply good things about current Vertigo/DC
>>81524373
I don't see how it means anything since she left like 2 years ago
>>81524128
>I only read capeshit
Wow, I knew namefags were cancerous but this is ridiculous.
>>81524128
I see you Peter
>>81522461
What happened?
>>81525334
he thought people wouldn't get confused about his release schedule/method
>>81525503
The thing that I think was most confusing was that the subtitle was coming before the issue number so you had 8house:arclight #2 and then next month you have 8house:kiem #3 which probably left a lot of people wondering where the first 2 issues of kiem is. Also some people probably asked for 8house:arclight on their pull list and never got any others
>All this fucking glorious Risso art
Holy shit there's jizz EVERYWHERE
>>81526343
UNF
>>81526387
I am fucking THERE.
>>81526415
Really digging that Surgeon X thing too. Premise sounds pretty cool, and c'mon. It's Karen Berger.
>>81526443
Karen Berger comes out and says "Hey you should try reading this", you sit the fuck down and read that.
Fuck you Nick Spencer.
Nice.
Some really cool looking stuff. Kill or Be Killed and Moonshine are going to be worth it just based on the creative teams and some of the other stuff sounds interesting. Obviously every year Remender has to start a new series and Hickman has to announce one that he can delay endlessly. Karen Berger is the most exciting thing for me.
>>81519644
lol yeah, post that list please.
>>81519943
>>81519971
Considering this thread is just posting creative teams and book names with no synopsis or promo images or anything, creators we know is pretty much all we have to judge the book by right now.
>>81527000
I want to be excited but the only remender comics I actually like are fear agent and deadly class
>>81527182
If you google it there's more info out, covers and synopses and shit
>>81522155
That's your fault, not Image's
>>81527566
word, I'm just saying based on the info in this thread alone
>>81524373
She was pushed out of DC two years ago. I don't care that Image is taking Berger and Prince of Cats from DC specifically, I'm just glad they're back.
>>81527000
There's literally nothing Moebius about this. Looks good tho.
>>81527000
VERY nice.
>>81528243
>>81528266
>>81528287
>>81528311
>>81528243
>>81528266
I wish I liked the fantasy genre at all because i love opena's art but this is gonna be another cliche remender book. honestly the only things of his i've liked are uncanny x-force and deadly class
>>81528334
>>81528354
>>81527000
Inb4 4 issues a year
>>81528434
6 issues then 2 year hiatus
>>81528434
Remender's stuff usually comes out on time, unless this artist is the problem.
>>81519170
>What's up with artists writing books but not drawing them?
You can only draw maaaaybe 1 book a month. More likely 1 every six weeks.
Writing takes considerably less time, provides a creative outlet and income that doesn't burn the artist out or make their drawing suffer.
Plus, everything is about the writers these days. They get all the credit for doing everything, even though artists do a lion's share of the storytelling as well.
>>81519828
>>81527182
Not him but he's the ones I know of:
>Restoration by Bill Willingham and Barry Kitson
>Paradigms by Nick Spencer and Butch Guice
>Cerulean by Spencer and Frazer Irving
>Great Beyond by Spencer and Morgan Jeske
There's also some other already-released series that are currently missing, like Bedlam (written by guess who) and Mudman.
I feel bad cause all the stuff I think looks interesting is by people who are already well established names
Prince of Cats getting back in print is some HYPE stuff
Ribic preview is out
>>81529811
I feel the same way desu, I think the more well known talent knows how to sell their stuff better.
>>81530052

>>81530160
>>81530188
>>81530160
>>81530162
Well, it could be interesting. If nothing else it'll be worth it for the Esad Ribic art.
What kind of name is Esad Ribic anyway?
>>81527000
as hyped as i am for this i can't see Opena on an ongoing.
have they said how long they're planning this to go?
>>81530162
That sounds awfully generic.
any previews for Afar?
>>81530160
Sounds boring as fuck senpai

It'll be nice to see ribic do something that isn't capeshit at least and he should shine if he doesn't have to worry about deadlines
>>81523987
what's Brandon working on? been a while since his Multiple Warheads strip in Island. oh yeah, Prophet, but that should be over with onhis end by now, no?
>>81529843
It’s been almost four years since Prince of Cats was originally printed at Vertigo and three years since it went out of print. Before I get into the why you’re bringing it back into print somewhere else part, what’s the story behind it going out of print to begin with? And did the rights to the book simply revert to you after being out of print for a while?
Wimberly: Honestly, I wish I knew why it went out of print the first time. I found out when I tried to buy some copies from Forbidden Planet. I feel like it hadn’t quite been a year yet. It was out of print but mostly sold out as well. I was frustrated by the amount of people asking me where they could get it or why they couldn’t find it.
>tfw I was one of them
>>81530254
It is. That's the problem I have with most image books. They can get some top tier artists but there's no real creativity in the story ideas. It's like these guys realize they don't have to do capeshit and just shit their pants
>>81530273
Sure.
>>81530298
He's doing 4 issues of the new Metabarons, that's where he's going to shine. This book's premise screams I SUCK AT IMAGINATION hard
>>81530361
Really strong showing of art talent this time around. These books kind of bleed into each other for me though.
>>81519369
Think that's with Dynamite dude.
>>81530394
>>81521834
Surgeon X kind of sounds like it could be a Western Black Jack or Team Medical Dragon. Definitely worth checking out.
>>81530411
>>81530405
He said Skybound.
>>81530435
>>81524128
Might sound pleb as fuck, but I would love nothing more than if Remender and Opena's new book was a superhero one. I love damn near everything Remender wrote for Marvel and my dick would stay diamonds for a year if he hopped back on the cape train. Especially since he'd be able to write whatever the fuck he wanted to with Image AND have beyond based Opena-inspired-by-Moebius doing the art.

>another cliche remender book
You say this like it's a bad thing.
>>81530052
>I feel the same way desu, I think the more well known talent knows how to sell their stuff better.
They also know what readers in general want to read. As opposed to the unknown writers who seem to want to write the most hipster shit possible.
>>81520246
Fuck. And here I was hoping it'd be a historical fiction book about the founding of Rome.
>>81530682
None of this is the most hipster shit possible IMO.
I'm actually excited to start reading some new Image books again. Image fell off my radar pretty hard a couple of months ago. Only a handful of books kept my interest.
>>81530735
Well I'm pleb as fuck so it is for me.
>>81520246
I hope it's not a bunch of rich, old, white guys but we know it will be.
>>81530788
Fair enough. I think at this point you could put together a random generator for an Image comic.
>>81530865
Here are some bullshit image comics ideas off the top of my head that I wouldn't be surprised to see
>Twilight style vampires in Victorian England
>Undercover KGB operatives who are also prominent members of the 70s disco scene
>A hitman with a heart of gold
>A "sci-fi" comic that is basically black lives matter on a made up planet

I could go on but I don't want all my TV show *cough* I mean comicbook ideas stolen

Hickman never finished up his SHIELD series over at Marvel. i have never forgiven him for that since i thought it was the most impressive series to be published by the big 2 at the time. i honestly don't think i've read a marvel comic since. well, other than Ellis's Moon Knight and Ennis's Fury War Gone By.
>>81531255
Fucking kek. Damn near all of those actually sound like possible Image comics.
>>81531346
Didn't he finish the last issue(s) for SHIELD though? And it's just that Marvel hasn't released them yet? That's what I've read on here anyways.

>They also know what readers in general want to read. As opposed to the unknown writers who seem to want to write the most hipster shit possible.
I can only imagine what the fuck Fantagraphics' library looks like to you then. None of this stuff seems hipster. It's just more of the usual sci fi, crime, and fantasy shlock that creators at Image like to pump out.
There's totally alt comix at Image but none of this stuff qualifies as it.

>early 1970s Spider-Man comics
I saw Death Wish but I don't understand what makes early 1970s Spider-Man comics so relevant to this new comic.

>cliche remender book
what does that mean
>>81528190
Moebious style can be many different things. It just the color on this one looks more American than European comic sensibility.
>>81531917
>Didn't he finish the last issue(s) for SHIELD though
ah, i wouldn't know. it's been years and i gave up on it. kinda like Ellis, you can only be burned so many times before calling it quits on that writer. when it comes to their new works, i will always wait until it is collected or the story is over to even take a peek at it. unless it's Alan fucking Moore.
>>81531255
hahaha, a couple of those made me laugh. however, i admire a publishing company that reaches far and wide with its concepts instead of focusing on the same crap wash, rinse, and repeat, even if some end up quite dreadful.
>>81531255
>Alternative history where Nazis run Hollywood instead of jews
This one actually sounds like it would be potentially excellent. With a good writer who did enough research into the formative stages of Hollywood and the Nazi/European film and propaganda industries.

I like Remender, but "grizzled protagonist beaten down by life searching for his family to make at least one thing right in a world gone horribly wrong" pops up a lot in his work

>PRINCE OF CATS written and drawn by Ron Wimberly, lettered by Jarred Fisher, and featuring design by Jorden Haley returns to print from Image Comics.
>PRINCE OF CATS was first released from Vertigo to critical acclaim in the summer 2012. It was out of print before the following summer. After three years, it will be returning to print through Image Comics.
>PRINCE OF CATS is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead meets The Warriorsmeets Sword of Doom. PRINCE OF CATS sets Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet in an alt-universe, mid-eighties New York where dueling with live blades evolved as a cultural phenomenon alongside New York's other street cultures; it eschews the story of the titular star-crossed lovers to follow the tragic story of Tybalt, the Prince of Cats.
>PRINCE OF CATS, the definitive remastered author’s edition, is set to release in Fall 2016.

>Once upon a time…They built a world where dreams come true... And those dreams went to war. In BLACK CLOUD, we meet Zelda: exiled to Earth, her dreams of revolution are gone, but she still holds the key to the world she left behind. And it’s for sale.

>Fan-favorite writer Jim Zub (WAYWARD) and newcomer Djibril Morissette-Phan (Death Saves Anthology) come together with colorist K. Michael Russell (Transference) and letterer Marshall Dillon (White Sand, SKULLKICKERS) for GLITTERBOMB.
>“Probably the only thing I love more than comics is cinema,” said Morissette-Phan. “Which makes Glitterbomb a dream project since it's a perfect blend of both.”
>Set in Hollywood, GLITTERBOMB is a horror story about failed fame and blood-soaked revenge.
>"The entertainment industry feeds on our insecurities, desires, and fears,” said Zub. “You can’t toy with those kinds of primal emotions without them biting back.”

>Sampson used 1970s horror films for inspiration on the artwork and described the book’s overall look as: “about 70% Americana, slightly heightened, like True Blood, and about 30% ripping off of heads.”
>A horror-adventure story, WINNEBAGO GRAVEYARD follows a family with a teenage son and what happens when their road-trip goes wrong and they find themselves stuck in a town full of satanists.
>WINNEBAGO GRAVEYARD is set to launch in Fall 2017.
