A Comic Book Created By James Haick and Branko Jovanovic
I'm getting ready for about 4 major conventions in the span of 6 weeks coming up here in May. We'll have a booth at MegaCon in Orlando, Heroes Convention in Charlotte, Dallas Comic Con in Texas, and Florida Super Con in Miami Beach! The entire first arc (issues #1-6) will be available at the conventions along with the SOLAR FLARE SURVIVAL KIT! Picture above is the covers for issue #6! Stay tuned for the issue #6 Kickstarter Campaign and another HUGE announcement!

I am trying something new and using this new service called Kickbooster. By going to www.kickbooster.me and filling out some basic info, you can become what they call an "affiliate" for our campaig...n. Kickbooster will give you a special link to our campaign for you to share on your social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) and if someone contributes after using that link, you will earn 10% of whatever reward bundle they purchase. The money will be sent to you about two weeks after the campaign ends!

The 5th issue Kickstarter will be launching in the next two weeks! In the meantime, the digital download of issue #5 is available now HERE! I'm happy to say that the scripts for issue #6 AND #7 are in the final editing stages as well. The first story arc wraps up in issue #6 and the graphic novel will hopefully be out around May. I hope to share some exciting news on that front very, very soon. I'll be updating my convention schedule soon as well! Talk with you soon! --James
