Brian Christgau/Edwin Badillo - 6 Gun Gorilla
Super-star indie comics icon Brian Christgau lives like a king atop his massive SIX-GUN GORILLA publishing and merchandizing empire, but when he sends the files for the latest issue to the printer, a certain Internet Troll intercepts them mid-transit and decides to take certain “artistic liberties”.

Glenn B. Fleming - Hatch
“Crom finds a way into another universe…the thing is…what kind of impact will he have…or will he be even noticed?”


Erik Hodson-Dreaded Dinosaur Man
When Dinosaur Man discovers a mysterious wrecked spaceship he comes face to face with CRoM! A malevolent creature with a challenge for any who dare be in his presence! A fight to the death!

 

Paul Gomez/Manny Soto- Booshie Boo Circus
"A day at Booshie Boo Circus gone awry. Chaos and fun are abound as CRoM arrives"

Doc Blalock- Pariah 
Elizabeth Payne thought her quest for vengeance had ended until an internet Troll, 
CRoM arrives and leads her down an even darker, and funnier, path for revenge!

Alison McGlone-
The Barrier Peaks have a new resident but the locals are unsure. 
Now Dani and Shadow have to contend with a "troll" while dodging those hunting them

Daniel Monroe - Ye Gawds! 
After a night of hearty partying, CRoM wiggles himself into a new Universe next door, 
where an Epic of Mythic Proportions is under way!

Ryan Niswander - CRoMs Day In
CRoM is taking a break from messing with people in their own universes. Today CRoM is messing with people from the comfort of his own pocket dimension inside a comic book long box floating deep in outer space. CRoM watches everything from his stack of TVs and old computer monitors and interferes when it amuses him. You never know who CRoM is watching or what he will do.
