Now live on Kickstarter, Bixby Grant, Private Eye: Fangs & Brimstone #1 from RNM PRESS! It’s written by Komikwerks co-founder Patrick Coyle with art by Gonzalo Martínez, color by Arthur Hesli, edited by Heather Antos, and covers by Liana Kangas and Gabriel Hardman.

Bixby Grant, an immortal living mummy and Harbor City’s greatest private detective, is doing his best to be left alone and forget his tragic past. But today is his birthday, a day that holds special significance for Bix – on this day in 1925, he discovered that his older brother Max was not only a member of the city’s largest crime family, but also an occultist intent on summoning a demon to Earth!

Bix stumbles across a string a of ritualistic murders by an unidentified cult, murders that have an all-too-coincidental parallel to what Bix’s brother was attempting to do one hundred years ago. The murders are targeting members of the Mayor’s reelection campaign, possibly a violent pushback against the Mayor’s proposal to rid Harbor City of its supernatural population.

Running afoul of the police, Bix reluctantly teams up with Diego, a young rockabilly vampire, to face sorcerers, witches, and a cadre of monsters known as the Council Macabre during their investigation. But Bix’s greatest foe is himself – he’s been repressing his true feelings about his brother for over one hundred years, and that is causing him to make careless mistakes. He needs to face those feelings so he can save Harbor City from being overrun by the demon Syd and his horde of hell spawn goblins!

Each issue will be a whopping 30 pages; featuring an additional 8-page underground zombie fight club tale, Zombietown, with art by Gonzalo Ruggieri.  

The campaign for Bixby Grant, Private Eye: Fangs & Brimstone #1 ends November 16.
