Reanimator Inc. 1 to 3 - Lovecraft-inspired Cosmic Horror
Created by Andrew Perry - Reanimator Inc.
Reanimator Incorporated is complete re-imagining of the original H.P. Lovecraft 'Herbert West: Reanimator' story. It incorporates Lovecraft stories, mythos and the Outer Gods, blended with Dante's Inferno, and played out across Earth, Paradise and the Lovecraftian Nine Circles of Hell.
"Imagine a world where death is merely a temporary inconvenience, where consciousness can be uploaded and bodies rebuilt. But what happens when the soul departs, and something else takes its place? “Reanimator Incorporated” explores this terrifying concept, asking profound questions about identity, mortality, and the horrors lurking just beyond our perception." A Place to Hang Your Cape.

Thank you everyone. We completed an incredibly successful campaign. We are so close to stretch goal 2 that we'll include it anyway, so everyone gets extra pages in the book.
I'll start working on the Backerkit pledge manager so watch this space for updates and surveys.
If anyone's heading to MCM this weekend you can find a Lyndon there.
Take care and thank you again. Andy

Hi all, we're coming up to the last 24 hours of an awesome campaign.
Stretch WIP
The first stretch goal is unlocked and artist, Chris Holmes, has a Work in Progress piece to share for the Lovecraft Legends: Herbert West - Reanimator A5 print...
Crossover Division
Long time Kickstarter associate and author, Will Allred, has the latest edition of Cross Over Division running on Kickstarter now.
Who Will Love Crossover Division?
Comics, coupled with my love of literature and science fiction, has birthed Crossover Division and allowed us to probe the nature of truth and how fiction influences the world, so if you are a fan of classic literature, science fiction, and tales of adventure and intrigue, then you're in the right place.
We'll be back with more updates when the Reanimator campaign is completed.
Take care all,
Andy

Hi everyone,
We are very pleased to say STRETCH GOAL UNLOCKED!
Thanks again for all your support as we head into the last 50 hours of our Kickstarter campaign. Please share the project where you can.
In the meantime, 3 of our friends are also running Kickstarter campaigns at the moment (or launching shortly) and we wanted to do a quick project spotlight, covering classic sci-fi, medieval fantasy and a supernatural thriller.
Thunder Child
The cataclysmic conclusion of the HMS Thunder Child's fight against the Martian Menace comes to Kickstarter.
Thunder Child is set within the world of beloved Science-Fiction novel 'The War of the Worlds' by H. G. Wells. Set against a backdrop of unstoppable terror and brutal tragedy - all leading up to the Thunder Child's final showdown with the War Machines of Mars.
Of Ichor & Bone is a Medieval fantasy horror comic that follows the Knight Aethelflaed as she is uprooted from her peaceful and quiet life within the castle of her Queen and sent to make a name for herself in the outside world.
Inspired by our love of the Dark Souls video game series as well as the 2021 Green Knight film the comic also explores imposter syndrome and the pressures of self-inflicted failure.
Powers Fearful and Divine 1-4 - A New Extraordinary League
Under the leadership of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the politically aggressive Spiritualist movement appears to have found the answer to a riddle over a century in the making.
The alternating currents of reason and mysticism collide as the true titans of the twentieth century wage war over the course of history itself. The heart of their conflict: the twisted form of fiction’s greatest, most blasphemous scientist – Victor Frankenstein.
Written by Cy Dethan, art by RHStewart and letters by Nic Wilkinson, Powers Fearful & Divine is a supernatural thriller, where Houdini is forced to team-up with Lovecraft to investigate the Spiritualist goings-on.

Hi everyone,
We are into the last 2 weeks of the Kickstarter and climbing towards that first stretch goal, which is amazing. Thank you all so much for your support so far. If you can, please help share, scream and shout about the campaign, it really helps us out.
In the meantime, I wanted to share some of the art process from Reanimator 3. I've taken everything we did with the first 2 books and pushed it to that next level. Building on the world environments and the monster design. In particular, Dagon was incredibly fun to draw, taking inspiration from the original story and merging it with aspects of The World Serpent. He's familiar to the Dagon that Lovecraftian fans will know and love, but the design fits within the world we've created.
Below is one my favourite pages from book 3 and when I read these panels in the script, I instantly knew how I wanted to draw them. Long, vertical panels that make Mike and Howard feel small, with a scream stretching over the panels. Parts of book 3 feel very epic and pulling back the camera, shows how small Mike and Howard are in the vast realms of hell.
I'll be sharing more over the campaign but for now, thanks again for supporting the project and I hope you're all ready to traverse through Lovecraftian hell with us.
All the best,
Lyndon

Hey everyone, we're getting closer to the first stretch goal, which is great news. And great to see we're close to 200 backers too.
After a bit of feedback, we have introduced two retail tiers for any stores looking to stock copies of Reanimator.
If you'd like to see any specific tiers or shipping packages, please let us know.
Recommendations
Simon at Blue Fox is a good friend of both Lyndon and I, all round nice chap and excellent comic producer.
In Victorian London, siblings Sarah and Brian Perkins, united by their love for each other and the pain of their past, combat dark criminal threats. Sarah possesses paranormal abilities that have disturbed her since she was a child, while Brian is a pragmatic Scotland Yard inspector.
I'd also like to give a shout out to Stash Box by Ian Mondrick...
STASH BOX is a unique love letter to the horror comics of yesteryear. We’ve taken our favorite pieces of Creepshow and Tales from the Crypt and placed them strategically through the pages of this 36-page, oversized one-shot. To complete the presentation, we’re printing the comic on high quality newsprint to give this book the look and feel of something from another time.
There's only a day left on the Stash Box campaign too, so take a look...!
Thanks all - we'll be in touch with more news soon.
