The goal of this campaign is to fund the production and fulfillment of Colton Crux, an occult noir graphic novel inspired by the work of H. P. Lovecraft, the movie Inception, and old Noir films (particularly the ones starring the great Humphrey Bogart like The Maltese Falcon, All Through the Night and The Big Sleep).
Synopsis: After centuries of political infighting, the Church that was meant to stand guard against the forces of darkness, not only forgot its purpose but became an obstacle to it. This is a story about a paranormal PI manipulated by both sides, that must investigate a series of supernatural cases to discover a secret history of the world, and find a way to stop an incoming invasion.

I'm also commissioning other high-quality artists to draw some of the stories in the book. As an example check out this 1 page Colton Crux short story called "The Key Hole" by a very talented Kayden Rowk:
