Evil Dead 2 Comic Book Omnibus and Art Book Launches on Kickstarter

Space Goat Productions has launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a set of deluxe, oversized Evil Dead 2 hardcover books. Included in the set is The Art of Evil Dead 2: Comic Books and Board Games as well as The Evil Dead 2 Omnibus. Both will be housed in a slipcase styled after the iconic Necronomicon Ex-Mortis from the cult classic film.

Art of Evil Dead 2: Comic Books and Board Games book provides backers with the chance to see behind-the-scenes character designs, concept artwork, penciled pages, layouts, and drawings. All of the assets are fully licensed and certified 100% groovy!

The Evil Dead 2: Omnibus Vol. 1 collects: Beyond Dead by Dawn, Cradle of the Damned, Dark Ones Rising, and Tales of the Ex-Mortis in one massive 300-page Necronomicon-sized tome.

The books are ready to send to the printer. The crowdfunding campaign is to raise funds for manufacturing. There are a variety of stretch goals to upgrade the production of the books available to backers–as well as high-end product from other Evil Dead licensees. Retailers are also able to back the campaign at an exclusive retailer tier with free shipping.

Ash and Annie are back, and the Evil Dead have never been more Evil or more Dead! Back in the world of the living, Annie has suffered an aneurysm. While she recovers from this, we discover that the ritual opened a part of her psyche that was then infiltrated by the dark ones. She’s unwittingly unleashed them onto the world and their first stop is the Red Knob Civil War Cemetery. Yee-hah!
