NEGATIVE SPACE #1

Written by Ryan K Lindsay, art by Owen Gieni.

When one man's writer's block gets in the way of his suicide note, he goes for a walk to clear his head and soon uncovers a century-old conspiracy dedicated to creating and mining the worst lows of human desperation. A corporation has manipulated his life purely so they can farm his suicide note as a sadness artifact that will be packed and shipped to ancient underwater creatures who feed off our strongest and most base emotions. Our hero partners with a cult intent on exposing the corporation, and only a suicide mission can solve the whole mess.

THE TOMORROWS #1

Written by Curt Pires, art by Jason Copland.

A bold new speculative-fiction comic from the mind of writer Curt Pires, each issue illustrated by a different brilliant artist!

The future: art is illegal. Everything everyone ever posted online has been weaponized against them. The reign of the Corporation is quickly becoming as absolute as it is brutal--unless the Tomorrows can stop it.

They told you the counterculture was dead. They were wrong. Welcome to the new reality.

And how will the family survive?
