An old hunter and a young artist will have to team up to win the international monster-hunting sport known as The Preserve!
Welcome to THE PRESERVE! Live on Kickstarter now with just over two weeks left to show your support. From writer L.A. Chavez, artist Taylor Keith, colorist Crystal Pandita and letterer Lettersquids comes a brand new monster hunting sci-fi comic you certainly won’t want to miss out on.
“What if hunting became the biggest sport and television event in the world? In a world where most animals have been hunted to extinction, technology now allows people to create whatever monster they want for their bloody entertainment. Hunters from all over the world rise to the challenge to earn a spot in the world finals of The Preserve! For the former champion, Winston Abara, and his artist, Rachel Lin, their journey to victory will for more than glory and riches, but the chance to save their home. Yet the primal allure of the game is powerful, and despite going against Winston’s belief in the natural order of life, will he succumb to the evil influence of…The Preserve.”
The Preserve is a 5 Issue mini-series, starting with this first one being 28 pages. Set in the not so distant future, where the largest sporting event in the world has become The Preserve, a live game where hunters enter a prepared terrain to hunt a creature designed by the “Artist” of the other team, which then gets brought to life and released into the stadium. The game is controlled by the biggest corporation on the planet, Packard Industries, whose CEO runs the game. Our heroes (Winston and Rachel) enter the game to win the world finals and save their home from becoming the next Preserve!
The story explores the gentrification of these major sporting events, as well as the sanctity of life while criticizing hunting as a sport and the disrespect society has for animals.
