Ever wonder what happens when space gods meet future, Earth-based in-laws? Jersey Gods features characters highly reminiscent of Jack Kirby's New Gods, but, at least in the case of Barock, the main protagonist, they are mired in slightly more mundane situations. More

A sort of old-school, hard-luck gumshoe yarn, taking place against the backdrop of what is quite literally a city where the damned spend their afterlife, Hellcity has some pretty compelling elements. More

Chew is a great book beyond its meaty hook. It's a stew of weird ideas, well-developed characters, hilarious situations, dark humor, and a little bit of sci-fi thrown into the mix. More
