What's This?

Digital Lizards of Doom is a love letter to pop-culture featuring wild new characters like Commander E.K.O, Dizzy Doom, and Dana Deathly! Follow along on an adventure pulling from action movies, Japanese story telling, video games and more. Oh, and there's a cyborg pirate cat!

This campaign is for a complete 140-page graphic novel created and written by Gabriel Valentin featuring art by Ernie Najera.

Welcome to The Digital Lizards Of Doom!

“In a world where science and sorcery have brought peace to the galaxy, a young warrior’s belief system is shattered when an evil robot and an ancient witch attack his kingdom, forcing him into a quest for justice. As revelations about his world are exposed, Dizzy’s faith is shaken, and he must now make an unlikely alliance with a mysterious ninja and a cyborg cat pirate. Together they'll search for a fabled weapon that could destroy evil forever and bring the universe into an unending era of peace!"

 

Why are we here?

We want to launch Digital Lizards Of Doom with style! Whether you've been a fan for years or you're just finding out about the book now, this campaign is the place to come to to get excited and to ask your questions!

 

Digital Lizards of Doom represents a brand new way of story-telling within the graphic novel medium, as the story is told with a combination of full-page artwork and a new dialogue system that pushes the boundaries of the format.  

 

 

Stay tuned for updates, stretch goals, and maybe even some live streams!

SEE WHO ELSE LOVES DLOD!

 

San Diego Comic Con co-founder Mike Towry has agreed to write the introduction for Digital Lizards Of Doom and artist Mark Irwin (Batman, X-Men, Green Lantern) has illustrated a special INDIEGOGO exclusive cover just for this campaign!

"This book is a great pop-culture meld, a fun mix of comics, video games, tabletop games, adventure cartoons, and more, that all combine to make something very new yet also familiar. Gabriel’s approach to visual storytelling is quirky, and idiosyncratic and unique: at least it’s new and fresh to me, and incredibly well done." - Mike Towry

Meet The Team

GABE VALENTIN

Gabriel Valentin, the writer of Digital Lizards of Doom, possesses long standing passions for composition and storytelling. When it comes to pop culture, he describes himself as a “hopeless romantic”, a rose petals on the bed, champagne in the ice bucket, and a little mood lighting before stocking up on potions and heading into the next dungeon kind of guy.

ERNIE NAJERA

Influenced by the graphic novel styling of the 90's and classic animation, Earnie Najera has had his artwork in comic book anthologies like Action Hospital, Kaiju and tribute comics like Jack Kirby Birthday Tribute #96. He serves as the primary artist for the gang's adventure.

MARGO PRODAN

Margo Prodan is a master of color and texture, and applies these skills to articulate the emotes for each of our unique characters. She is a lover of everything Mermaids, Final Fantasy, Legend of Zelda and Cyberpunk.

CHANCE

To make sure this adventure comes to life in a way no-one has ever experienced in a graphic novel before, Chance Boren draws on his experiences from working on Transformers: Infiltration, 30 Days of Night and Metal Gear Solid: The Comic Series and lends his skills as a producer to Digital Lizards of Doom. 

CHRISTINA-MARIE MCBREARTY

Real-life Disney Princess and fearless pop-culture fandom warrior, Christina-Marie McBrearty, serves as the Executive Producer of Digital Lizards of Doom. She has worked in both the music and fashion industry and has been involved with major events for Star Wars, Marvel Studios, Seventeen Magazine,  Vans Warped Tour and the Grammy’s.
