CAMPAIGN UPDATE:

I've taken down some of the previous perks because the books are done and ready to ship so the campaign is winding down. The stretch level goals are still available with each purchase with the exception of your name in the book (for obvious reasons).

THE POSTER!

OUR HERO: PAUL JACKSONHello and welcome!

Hi, horror and comics fans! I'm Graham Nolan, a 35+ year veteran writer/artist of the comic book gulags. Over the years you've probably seen my work for DC and Marvel Comics and if you don't already know, I'm the designer and co-creator of the iconic Batman villain, BANE! I'm also the creator of MONSTER ISLAND (which is still available on Indiegogo) and the artist on the successful, THE EXPENDABLES GO TO HELL (also still available) to name a few!

THE CHENOO is a story I've been kicking about for a couple years now but because it's a self-contained story there was never an outlet for it with the major comic book publishers. I think readers are looking for good  stories that don't require them to invest in multiple issues when the story could have been told in one without all the padding.

People like YOU, with crowdfunding, have changed the paradigm of graphic storytelling. Now there are no limits on the types of stories that can me told. Your trust and investment in these new ideas and ways of doing things is really ushering in a new GOLDEN AGE OF COMICS!

So a big thank you for checking out my story!

 

THE STORY:

In 1977 a once in 500 year winter storm hit the city of Buffalo, paralyzing the region. 23 deaths were attributed to the storm but the truth could never be revealed. There was something hiding in the snow and wind. Something evil and malignant.  And it was hungry.

Today, another monster storm is brewing over the lake and once again it is bringing more than wind and snow. It's bringing death!

Paul Jackson was a kid during the storm of '77 when his father, Jimmy was the chief of police. His dad told him stories about the storm that couldn't and shouldn't be shared.

Stories of the Chenoo. A giant frozen creature of Native American lore that comes off the ice to eat the hearts of its victims in search of the warmth it will never have.

Now Paul is a cop and it's happening all over again.

 

Created, written and illustrated by Inkpot Award recipient, Graham Nolan

Funding

Funding for this project will first go to the expenses of paying for services such as printing, design and setup costs, lettering, etc. After that, the rest of the funding will go to me as creator/writer/artist to keep the lights on and pay the bills while I work on the project as well as to help launch the NEXT project...You are not going to want to miss that!

 YOU MAKE AN IMPACT

The Chenoo is just the beginning of new stories and concepts I want to bring to Indiegogo under my publishing label, Compass Comics.

The "Big 2" comic book companies have stacked the deck against the creators by owning our creations for a pittance of a page rate and monopolizing distribution. But there's a new sheriff in town and it's called crowdfunding! Because of YOU we can now bypass their rigged system and deliver the kind of comics you want directly to you! It's an exciting time to be creating stories!

 

Risks & Challenges

This a low risk investment, my friends. I have never missed a deadline or failed to deliver on a promise in the 35 years I've been in this business. If this is funded, it WILL be fulfilled. You can take that to the bank!

Other Ways You Can Help

I tried to make sure there is a level for everyone, but I know times are tough. If you love comics but can't contribute, I ask that you help support by helping me get the word out by sharing this campaign with your friends by using the Indiegogo share tools. It will be greatly appreciated!

 

Stretch Goals:

I'm asking for the bare minimum that it will cost me to produce this book. Once we hit that goal, then the fun can begin. At levels to be determined, more pages will be added, more opportunities for YOU to appear in the book and lots of other goodies!

Shipping: 

To be determined
