Exclusive: Dracula: Book IV – The Undead from Matt Wagner and Kelley Jones Launches this Thursday (Corrected)

Posted on by Leave a comment

Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 novel of gothic horror created the most famous literary character of all time: the terrifying vampire lord, Dracula. Now acclaimed comic-book creators Matt Wagner and Kelley Jones are reuniting for the fourth and final chapter in their epic series of original graphic novels about the shadowy history of the world’s most famous literary character with Dracula: Book IV – The Undead. The project launches this Thursday, October 1, on Kickstarter at 9AM PT/Noon ET.

Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 book is one of the most revered icons of the horror genre, and throughout the first three volumes of their smash hit series, Wagner and Jones have stayed 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…

The first three volumes of Wagner and Jones’s Dracula saga were smash hits—Book 1 broke the Top 20 in Kickstarter’s all-time most successful graphic novel campaigns—and this ultimate chapter promises to be even bigger, with 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. The Kickstarter campaign will be the only source for these beautiful, European-album sized hardcover editions of this book as well as many exceptional rewards tiers.

See what David Dastmalchian, Eric Powell, and Keith Rosson have to say about the project and sign up so you don’t miss out when it launches Thursday!

  • Promotional graphic featuring a quote by David Dastmalchian about Dracula's history, illustrated with dark, horror-themed artwork, including figures reminiscent of vampires and wolves.
  • Graphic illustration featuring a dark, eerie forest with a skeletal figure lying on the ground. Overlaid text quotes Eric Powell praising the Dracula graphic novel series by Matt Wagner and Kelley Jones, emphasizing its stunning visuals and appeal to horror fans.
  • A graphic illustration featuring a dark figure with glowing red eyes and sharp teeth, alongside a quote praising the storytelling of Wagner and Jones's Dracula as both an homage and a new path in horror.

Dracula: Book IV – The Undead will be funded via Kickstarter. Dracula—Book I: The Impaler and Dracula—Book II: The Brides are available now from Dark Horse Comics as paperbacks. The third volume, Dracula—Book III: The Count, will be published by Dark Horse on October 20, 2026.

Crowdfunding Corner: DENIS KITCHEN: Three Comics Collections

Posted on by Leave a comment

Conventional wisdom would have us believe that old hippies burn out and fade away, but conventional wisdom never met an overachiever like Denis Kitchen.

Self-publishing his humorous, sometimes psychedelic comics in the late ‘60s led to founding the incredibly influential Kitchen Sink Press that helped launch such underground luminaries as Robert Crumb, Art Spiegelman, Trina Robbins, S. Clay Wilson, Justin Green, and Howard Cruse. Kitchen Sink weathered the ups and downs of the comics industry through the ‘90s publishing work by legendary artists Will Eisner, Al Capp, Charles Burns, and Harvey Kurtzman.

During the moral panic of the ‘80s involving police crackdowns, obscenity arrests, and censorship threats, Kitchen founded the non-profit organization Comic Book Legal Defense Fund (CBLDF) to help protect targeted comic shops and alternative comics publishers.

Kitchen’s inertia continued with Denis Kitchen Art Agency, representing Harvey Kurtzman, Will Eisner, and other heavy hitters.

Throughout it all, Kitchen drew his own comics, often self-deprecating autobiography with the occasional flights of fancy into his subconscious or whimsical takedowns of corporate chicanery. These comics (and illustrations for alternative newspapers) made their way into various anthologies but have never been collected…until now!

Fellow cartoonist and founder of the comics press and distro Birdcage Bottom Books J.T. Yost hopes to bring a fresh audience (alongside established fans) to Kitchen’s work by compiling and risograph printing three loosely-themed collections: Hippie Komix, Square Comix, and Working Stiff Comics. These limited-edition collections (200 copies of each title) will be available through a Kickstarter campaign currently running through Sunday, September 27, 2026 at 8:55 AM EDT.

Cover art for 'Hippie Komix #1' featuring a whimsical, exaggerated character with a large nose and long hair, smoking and surrounded by swirling smoke, set against an orange tie-dye background.
A cartoon cover featuring a green, bulbous-headed character with a bow tie, looking shocked, next to a gray, boxy robot character angrily pointing. The title 'SQUARE COMIX' is prominently displayed above them with the word 'OUT!' in a speech bubble.
Cover of 'Working Stiff Comics' featuring an illustrated character with a bald head at a factory-style assembly line, with a clock in the background and a dish of round objects.

Shrub: The Collected Edition, Fanbase Press‘ latest Kickstarter campaign, collects the Graphic Medicine series exploring grief and connection, featuring all-new contributions from some of the biggest names in entertainment and the field of mental health. We have the exclusive reveal that  Dr. David J. Schonfeld, MD, FAAP (Director, National Center for School Crisis and Bereavement at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles) will be contributing an all-new resource guide on processing grief.

In this middle grade adventure, readers will join Shrub who is, well… a shrub… for a cross-country road trip to Hollywood! Join Shrub and a grieving brother and sister as they head out in search of connection. On their journey, pit stops, wacky plant enthusiasts, uprooting, and re-routing abound.

The series was created and written by Emmy Award nominee Shane Portman, illustrated by Andy Alves, colored by Sophia Du and Celia FitzGerald, lettered by Oceano Ransford, and with consultation from comics librarian Moni Barrette.


Shrub explores the various ways that we allow grief to take root, inspired by writer Shane Portman’s experience with the loss of his father. The series features “Letting Grief Take Root” essays written by individuals with a personal and/or professional connection to grief who relate Shrub’s story to their own lived experience. Essayists include Shane Portman and his family, as well as grief doula Kat Primeau and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Ariel Landrum (Geek Therapy).

Additionally, every issue of the series includes a fold-out page within the story’s narrative.

Striving to destigmatize loss and promote understanding of the diverse ways that people of all ages grieve, the expanded print edition will also feature a study guide by literacy advocate Creators, Assemble! Inc., an informational essay by clinical psychologist and media consultant Dr. Drea Letamendi, and much more.

Check out a preview of Schrub: The Collected Edition below and back it on Kickstarter today!

Summit Comics brings the villain-centered series Grymstone to Kickstarter

Posted on by Leave a comment

Some toys were never meant to be played with. Summit Comics is bringing Grymstone: Soil & Ash to Kickstarter, a five-part surreal folk-horror series written, colored, and lettered by Scott Alan Gregory, with art by Thiago Motta and variant covers from Pete Collins, Juan Angel, and Damian Connelly. The project earned Gregory a contract as the winner of the 2025 Summit Comics Writer Talent Search and now marks the publisher’s first villain-centered series.

A seven-inch-tall ’80s action figure possessed by the ancient spirit of a wicked woodland entity binds three troubled families across three different eras. As GrymStone’s influence takes shape, a Chicago man seeks help for his brother, who believes the talking action figure hidden in his basement is compelling him to commit violent acts.

GrymStone: Soil & Ash draws from the unsettling atmosphere of ’90s Vertigo horror to explore mental illness, inherited damage, and the evil that takes root beneath it all through the surreal, dangerous, and tragicomic storytelling that defined the era’s alternative comics landscape.

Kickstarter backers can choose from rewards including signed scripts, original sketch cards and covers, and the opportunity to appear in the comic in a featured speaking role. A limited number of backers can also become the star of a customized two-page GrymStone story created for the Summit Comics Substack.

GrymStone: Soil & Ash is now live and runs through October 8, 2026.

Two iconic comic book bad girls are back in business, as Dynamite Entertainment and Coffin Comics have launched a brand-new Kickstarter offering fans a complete archive of tales starring vampiress vixens Purgatori and Chastity from the beloved Chaos! Comics era! The campaign is live and runs until October 8.

This campaign follows the virally successful first foray in this historic collaboration, when Dynamite and Coffin came together to remaster and compile every story starring Evil Ernie. These new books reprinting Purgatori and Chastity comics are also filled with stunning and boundaries-breaking comics that have long been out of print and sought after by collectors. No longer will fans have to dive deep into back-issue bins, fight over skyrocketing online auctions, and trade one darling book for another in fan groups. The complete storylines of these leaders of the bad girls wave are ready for everyone’s shelves!

Kicking off in 1993, fans flocked to Chaos! Comics like moths to a flame for its genius mix of horror and tropes of the superhero genre. The heavy metal aesthetic and gritty sagas were a perfect representation of the rebelliousness, humor, and spirit of the 1990s and remain as fun today as they were then!

This new Kickstarter offers three books again. Two are devoted to the fables of Purgatori, the ancient slave girl turned demonic vampire. Created by Brian Pulido, she debuted in Evil Ernie: Revenge #1 before launching into her first solo series Purgatori: The Vampires Myth in 1996 with gorgeous artwork by superstar Jim Balent (Catwoman, Tarot: Witch of the Black Rose). Now across two titanic tomes, fans can read chapters of her journey including stories like The Dracula Gambit, Goddess War, Goddess Rising, Purgatori Empire, The Hunted, Darkest Hour, God Hunter, God Killer, and more! In addition to the aforementioned Pulido and Balent, other legendary creators who added to the tapestry of Purgi include David Quinn (Doctor Strange, Faust), Al Rio (Gen13), Mike Deodato Jr. (Avengers, Wonder Woman), Marc Andreyko (Manhunter, Supergirl), Len Kaminski (Iron Man), Joshua Dysart (Harbinger, Swamp Thing), and more.

Teenage girl Chastity Marks was struck with tragedy when turned into a vampire. When she realizes she is undetectable to her fellow vampires, her new devotion in life is hunting other bloodsuckers! Now all her solo adventures will be collected into one comprehensive volume, meticulously assembled for returning and new readers. Readers get to see her deadly skills in Evil Ernie: Straight to Hell, then she broke out into Chastity: Theatre of Pain. Later tales include Rocked, Lust for Life, Reign of Terror, Shattered, Crazytown, and more. On the Chastity front, Pulido is joined by other creators including Ivan Reis (Superman, Aquaman), Ed Benes (Birds of Prey, Justice League), Steven Grant (Punisher), Fabian Nicieza (X-Men, X-Force), Peter Vale, and others.

Each book is oversized at 9 by 12 inches. Fans can opt for three different versions of the books. Signed special editions feature ribbon markers, gilding, as well as signed and numbered bookplates. For the most discerning collectors, the super deluxe editions are limited to 333 copies each. Slipcases are also available, exclusive to the Kickstarter.

In addition to the books at the front and center of the Kickstarter, tons of awesome extras and add-ons are available. Shirts featuring both vampires and the classic Chaos! logo can be added to fans’ closets. Or patch sets can be grabbed for fans to customize their own clothes. Print sets featuring some of the most iconic artwork of these characters by top artists are included. Challenge coins and many other goodies are up for backers too!

As the campaign progresses, Dynamite and Coffin are excited to keep backers and those on the fence engaged with exciting stretch goals and surprise drops.
