The most important part of this announcement comes right here at the top – I got to make a graphic novel with my best friend Louie Joyce!

The second most important part is – you can buy that book at a discount right now, *and* get yourself a free commentary edition zine – but only if you back on Day One [right now!].

A FISTFUL OF PAIN just launched on Kickstarter right now – head on over and buy your copy today!

Yes. Also. Plus: this book is bloody amazing!

A FISTFUL OF PAIN is a new graphic novel from award-winning artist Louie Joyce and me [award-winning writer Ryan K Lindsay]. It is lettered by Thomas Mauer and published by ComixTribe and we are in love with what we’ve made.

The book is a fusion of Louie’s kinetic and insane artwork and a kung fu revenge storyline and a tale of two sisters duelling over the family dragon, Gilgamesh. You will meet Xin and you will care for her deeply and then you will follow her through this very difficult night. This book is massive and wild and such a spray of joy on the eyeballs.

I absolutely love this book and it’s one of the most special stories and projects I ever brought to life.

A Fistful of Process

This process zine, looking at all the work Louie put into making our book, is an insanely cool look behind the curtain on this book and something you are going to want, so you might as well get it for free on the first day!

Seriously, it’s this brilliant artefact, and it’s beautiful as well as educational. Day One: get it for free, *and* that’s when you buy the Hardcover or the Digital option for an already discounted price.

This is why you gotta head over to the campaign right now and sort out your backing option right now  – you do not want to sleep on this!

As for the book itself, the reason for the season, the book with the spine that’s way outta line, the comic on the page that’s causin’ all the rage [the four colour funny you’ll be reading on the dunny…too much?].

Here’s Louie’s Cover for our die-cut hardcover:

I’ll drop more information as throughout our campaign and keep you all posted with what we have on offer because this is something special.

For now – know that we just launched, right now, so the clock is ticking for you to get the free Fistful of Process when you buy the discounted Hardcover or Digital option.

Make sure you’ve cruised on over so you do not miss out on my biggest book launch ever!

I’m losing my mind over how gorgeous this book is and I can’t wait for you to get in on this with us!
