Hey guys, I wanted to let you all in on an exciting new zombie comic entitled Under the Flesh from Escape Comics. Written by Gilbert Deltres and artwork by JL Giles, the comic is in the middle of a Kickstarter Campaign and are looking for backers to help pay for the printing of issue #1 and the art of #2. Issue #1 is finished and the premise is an original take on the overdone zombie apocalypse tale. I’ve read it and it is totally kick-ass! To find out how you can help and to check out a brief preview of issue #1, read on below.

Help these guys out if you can, they’re a very talented duo and I’d love to see further adventures in this apocalyptic zombie-filled world. Here’s the link to their Kickstarter Page if you are able to donate, I’m sure they would appreciate the help!

From The Press Release

Independent comic book creator Gilbert Deltres, with artist J.L. Giles, are set to launch their first Kickstarter for Zombie Comic UNDER THE FLESH.

It’s been two months since Desolation Day, when an unknown male-specific virus ravaged the world, degenerating men into savage cannibals called “fleshers.”

Ruben Lobos, is a short-tempered, genetically enhanced soldier, who’s clueless about his abilities since the pathogen struck at the same time of his experiment. He’s interestingly surrounded by a diverse cast of strong female characters in a dying world where women outlast men.

That’s the world of Under The Flesh. A gritty blast of sex, horror, sci-fi, and dabbling in various sub-themes like evolution, spirituality, and transhumanism. A zombie apocalypse comic that strays away from the traditional viral story by accentuating a premeditated reason behind the virus, as opposed to leaving the origin of the outbreak as a common question mark.

To a degree, Under the Flesh is kinda Y: The Last Man meets The Walking Dead and Crossed.

Under The Flesh was released as a weekly updated webcomic of free access in March 30th. In order to bring the first issue of their insane post-apocalyptic horror to print, the project launched a Kickstarter campaign on Sunday, July 6.
