Summit Comics’ Testaments of Terror #1 — Bloodwake Rises!

Bloodwake: Breaking the Abyss takes readers on an atmospheric underwater tale in an homage to ’80s slashers!

In the depths of the sea, far from the reach of light, Bloodwake stalks the abyss, looking for his next taste of flesh. Coming this summer from Summit Comics, Testaments of Terror is an all-new horror anthology series, with each issue thrusting a character from the Summit Universe into a new horrific tale.

Testaments of Terror #1 features the Boundless Bloodwake in an oversized, 30-page one-shot backed up by shorts, both comic and prose.

A century ago, a young K’aelun N?ga-Kulu was exiled by his underwater tribe and sentenced to a 200-year watch over the abyssal gate holding unfathomable horrors back from his village. Now a hardened, bloodied warrior, K’aelun’s vigil is shattered when oblivious surface-dwellers at a nearby summer camp perform a dark ritual, ripping a piece of the gate to the surface.

Forced to breach the surface, K’aelun—now having adopted the name Bloodwake—must retrieve the artifact before the campers’ spell unleashes the ancient horror entirely. If you’re a fan of Pre-Code monster comics, bloody summer camp slashers, and fully independent shared universes, back the campaign to dive into the deep end of the Summit Universe!

PLUS…

Some believe Hell is only a pit stop on your journey. Sunder follows an infamous assassin who claws his way out of Hell, returning to Earth as the only demon who owes his soul to no one. He must decide whether he’ll become the monster everyone fears or fight for the redemption he never thought he deserved. 

The Missouri Rail Riots, 1877. In an explosion of industrial violence and desperate rebellion, a supernatural force was sparked. Born from an act of blood and the cry for righteous vengeance, an unfinished man arose: The Iron Golem.

Justice doesn’t die; it just waits in the bloodline. Today, the legacy of the Golem resurfaces in Evan Sharp. As a descendant of the original, Evan manifests a power he didn’t ask for to hunt a villain the world thought was history. The cycle of vengeance has come full circle, and the iron is finally hot enough to strike.

Space Banshee Exorcist follows the titular Space Banshee, Fenshaw, a banshee who’s moved into space and become an exorcist.

Undead in the space age, she makes a ‘living’ travelling across a far future, ultra-capitalistic galaxy, between moon colonies and star stations, fighting monsters and helping hapless humans rid themselves of the spectres and ghouls they’ve brought with them from Earth.

In this first full-length graphic novel, she is sent to the mysterious medical testing moon, Morrigan, by a pharmaceutical inventor to find out why his clones are disappearing and to kill whatever creature is responsible. Fenshaw quickly realises that things are darker than she anticipated and has to navigate her own place in the universe at the same time as doing her job.

EXTINCTION WAR — PRE?IGNITION BRIEFING

Extinction War is a story about the moment humanity realizes it isn’t the dominant force on Earth anymore. It’s the collision point between what we were, what we became, and what’s coming for us next. The world is breaking in slow motion — ecosystems collapsing, nations fracturing, old powers losing their grip — and something ancient is waking up inside the cracks.

The people caught in this moment aren’t superheroes. They’re human beings pushed past the edge in different ways. Some have taken their pain and turned it into personal dominion, developing themselves to a point where they feel larger than life. Some have lost their way and are trying to find a foothold. And some are so hurt they want everyone around them to feel the same. The war doesn’t create these paths — it exposes them.

This isn’t a clean war. It’s a survival event. A pressure test. A reckoning. The kind of conflict where every choice costs something, and every victory feels borrowed. Our characters aren’t superheroes; they’re people caught in the gears of a world shifting under their feet, trying to hold onto whatever still feels human.

The book is built to feel big — cinematic scale, grounded stakes, and a world that keeps expanding the deeper you go. Extinction War is the first chapter in a larger myth, one that asks what rises after the old world falls, and who we become when extinction stops being theoretical.

So brace yourself. Lock the harness. Wake the core. Bring the charge to saturation. Align the signal and let the engines bite. When Extinction War lights up, you rise

RISE follows Jonathan A. Prufrock as he comes face to face with the perils of the male ego while attempting to be super. The first five issues of this premium print comic combine for a whopping 212 pages and explores the performative nature of masculinity through the elevated life of a superhero attempting to navigate the pressures of what it really means to be a good man. Further, we ask, what does it take for one person to feel themselves deserving of love?

This isn’t a story about saving the world. It’s about surviving the performance. It’s a superhero story told for a new generation that’s more anxious, self-aware, and justice-skeptical than ever.

This superheroic journey is penned by rising writer, Trevor Fernandes-Lenkiewicz (AREA 51: THE HELIX PROJECT, MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT); drawn & colored by breakout artist, Ryan Best (BEAR MARKET BUSINESSMAN) with letters by the nicest man in comics, Matías Zanetti! This is Trevor & Pocket Watch Press’ FOURTEENTH project on Kickstarter, having successfully funded & fulfilled all prior campaigns!

TILL DEATH Graphic Novel

Can love overcome the barrier of death? A soul-searching journey between the living and the dead.

A restless ghost from the 1960s enlists a grieving man to carry her bones across the country in a final attempt to reunite with her husband. But even the afterlife has rules, and breaking them could incur a fate worse than death.

From writers Michael Schwartz (Armored), Rachael Schaefer (The Next Step), and illustrator Gaia Cardinali (King Arthur and the Knights of Justice), comes a new ghost story that is part Frighteners and part Harold and Maude in this brand new original graphic novel romantic horror-comedy.

Vivian died in a horrific car accident in the 1960s and has spent decades as a restless spirit, waiting at her gravesite for her beloved husband to join her so they can ascend to the next plane together. But when someone else is buried in her husband’s plot, she learns he was laid to rest across the country. Just as Vivian is spiraling into despair, Mack, a troubled man with demons of his own, crashes into the cemetery during a skydiving accident and the near-death experience opens his eyes to the world of spirits. Bound to her remains, Vivian convinces Mack to exhume her bones and set off on a cross-country journey to find her husband. Their mission breaks a sacred rule of the afterlife, and soon the unlikely pair are pursued by a force of relentless reapers, determined to wipe them from all existence.

Till Death features a stunning cover by Eisner Award-winner Tula Lotay (Somna, Barnstormers), is lettered by Ferran Delgado (Armored, Savage Dragon), and is edited by Chris Stevens (Tyrant, The Marvel Art of David Mack).

SHITKICKERS #1 and #2 — Rude, Crude, Sci-Fi Action w/ ‘Tude

It’s Green Lantern meets Lethal Weapon with some Starship Troopers for garnish!

he COSMIC PROTECTION BUREAU (CPB) is an intergalactic police force that uses a Silver Age-style comic book called SPACE COPS as propaganda to draft recruits into service, human and alien alike (a la the arcade game in The Last Starfighter).

But like all propaganda, the truth of the CPB is far removed from the romanticized version found in these recruitment comic books—the CPB is dirty, corrupt, and not at all glamorous. It’s a problematic organization that prioritizes protecting its own over their sworn duty to serve and protect.

Our story centers around two of these space cops: DYLAN JAX, a hot-headed, brash go-getter looking for action, and SKIZZ, a veteran alien in a career backslide who’s comfortable toiling away in the Bowels of THE PRECINCT, the homeplanet of the CPB. She’s a self-described SHITKICKER, aka the Being doing the most menial tasks possible.

When the cocky Dylan is assigned to do bullshit busywork with Skizz, he’s forced to confront the reality that his great destiny was just a lie his mommy fed him, and that the organization he’s committed his life to isn’t as benevolent as it claims to be.

Bored out of his gourd and looking for some action, Dylan kidnaps Skizz to go on a mission to crack open one of his new partner’s cold cases that sends them spiraling down a wormhole of intergalactic conspiracies, dirty cops, and big-time daddy issues.

SHITKICKERS is a series that lives somewhere between the humor of the Jump Street films and the high-stakes action of Guardians of the Galaxy—with a little Starship Troopers for garnish, and it sounds like this. Think Lethal Weapon meets Green Lantern.

But underneath the dick jokes and bad attitudes, this is a story about fighting against a system designed to oppress, even if it takes you a while to realize the side you should be fighting for isn’t the side you’re on. It’s about finding your place in the universe with a little help from your friends and the importance of chosen family. It’s about telling your past to screw off so you can carve out your own future.
