Clean Up Crew #1 – A Workplace Horror Comic
Home Alone in a hardware store…with vampires. Two clerks fight against vampire janitors to survive the night and their day job.
When Miles and Roger are forced to stay late to help the overnight janitors get the store ready for a big visit from the district manager, they were not expecting to be fighting for their lives. The janitors have more than mops and buckets. They have fangs and they’re not afraid to use them. Can these two clerks use the items in the store to survive the night? Or will it be a bloody clean up in aisle 6?
Clean Up Crew #1 is a fully completed 22 page comic book. It is written by James Ferguson (A Real Slobberknocker, Feed Them to the Crows), illustrated by Samir Samao (Shitshow), colored by Colin Johnson (Homestead, London After Midnight), and lettered by Micah Myers (Urban Animal, Chained to the Grave). It features logo and design by Darren Vogt.
Clean Up Crew is planned as 5-issue mini-series. All of the scripts are written. We’re almost done with the artwork for the second issue already.

DRACULA: BOOK IV – THE UNDEAD
The fourth and final volume in Matt Wagner & Kelley Jones’ series of original graphic novels about the shadowy history of DRACULA!
The first three volumes of Wagner and Jones’s DRACULA saga were smash hits and this ultimate chapter promises to be even bigger. DRACULA: BOOK IV—THE UNDEAD presents 122 pages of spine-chilling story and art. Wagner and Jones are once again joined for this macabre foray into the shadows of Dracula’s sinister schemes by the stellar talents of José Villarrubia on colors and lettering by Rob Leigh.
This campaign is the only source for these beautiful, European-album sized hardcover editions of this book as well as our other exceptional rewards tiers. Back this project today and ensure your copy of these incredible exclusive editions!
Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 book is one of the most revered icons of the horror genre and Wagner and Jones have managed to stay true to Stoker’s original canon while also providing an all-new and terrifying look at Dracula’s history and his nefarious actions that take place just off-stage in the novel’s chain of events. But, curiously…the novel’s climax has always left many fans with an unsettled feeling—as if perhaps the infamous vampire lord wasn’t actually destroyed by his enemies.
“In the novel, Professor Van Helsing outlines very clearly how to destroy a vampire,” says author Wagner. “And yet, in the exciting climax of the story, the British heroes don’t really use those prescribed methods to attack their foe. That discrepancy, combined with the fact that the sun is just about to set and thus restore Dracula to the full extent of his vampiric powers has provided us with the perfect opportunity to explore beyond the events of the original novel.”
“As incredibly creepy as the stories were in our first three books,” comments Jones, “this volume is probably the most evil one of all! Matt has come up with an amazing continuation of Dracula’s story that doesn’t just repeat the tropes of Stoker’s novel. Collectively, I feel this series is something of a crowning achievement to my career. I’ve never felt more proud of a final product as when each volume of our DRACULA series arrives in my hands from the printer.”
“As always,” Wagner adds, “I’m continually blown away by Kelley’s incredible art for these tales. I’m distinctly writing this saga with his graphic prowess always in mind…and yet he somehow always seems to draw each scene and moment even better than I had imagined.
“If Dracula did, indeed, survive the events of the original novel, what would be his response to the human enemies who so very nearly managed to end his centuries of evil dominion? Can anyone resist the vampire lord’s unholy vengeance? If their victory over his evil was only imaginary, then Dracula is truly…THE UNDEAD!

Mother. Chemical engineer. Quester. Alchemist. Adventurer. Wife.
Beatrice Stallard is and has been all of these things.
