The Proverbial Hook

Hayvard Saint's 8 is a tale of 8 divine appointed heroes recruited by celestial beings to defend mankind from existential ruin in the mid 3rd millennia AD. An ancient evil lives in the hearts of mankind and these chosen righteous few are the last line of defense to steer us from culminating our own destruction.

The heroes fight bravely and with honor, but a miscalculation in a crucial moment leads to the death of every living being in creation. The Angels use the last of their strength to send their champions back to our time for a final chance, and these seasoned spiritual warriors trudge through time lugging the haunting guilt of their superlative failure.

Upon arrival The Fated 8 are intercepted by Hayvard Saint and his elite task force who respond to the mysterious energy flux and promptly arrest this unsightly crew. His long and decorated military career has yielded a great many unexplained and horrific encounters, and instead of blue-papering these oddities, he concedes that their remarkable emergence and story could be a miracle.

After assessing their capabilities and carefully documenting them in custody, 8 enigmatic entities are approved for Green Cards and given occupational impunity. Codenames The Halven, Komodos the Dragon, The Hunter Twins, Awesome Angel, The G.I.X., Intergalactic Knight, Mammoth Monk, and their leader Ultra Ghost, together they are Hayvard Saint's 8!!!

Ephemeral to Infinium.

Emphatic Introduction

I'm Ryan Tyler Palmer and I'm a self published writer, worked professionally as a ghost writer and as a writer for a fantasy table top role playing game company. I'm also an Inexorable WordNerd, and a philosopher at heart.

Hayvard Saint's 8 is fully funded. I secured seed funding with only 200 Youtube subscribers, amidst a chaotic and destructive time in our beloved culture. I hired very talented and wonderfully creative people in my pursuit to create the coolest comic book series in the entire industry. We at Author Bomb Books are proud to work with such legacy talents as Ed Dukeshire (Digital Webbing, Fist of Justice), Bart Sears (Conan, X-O Manowar, Turok, Hasbro Toy Design), our senior editor Ed "Elminster" Greenwood (Forgotten Realms, TSR Novels), and release the last published work of late legend Dheeraj Verma (Marvel, Darkhorse, Transformers, Lady Death).

This comic is cover to cover quality, with artwork from Marvel artists Caanan White, vibrant colors by Iwan Triyono, and interior linework by former Marvel inker Jesse Hansen. Our penciler is handpicked, and showed a masterclass in illustrated storytelling on this, Russian native artist Andrey Lunatik.

The Bureaucratic Bargain

Author Bomb Books is dedicated to excellence and quality. We hired the best talents, guys you have all trusted to entertain you for decades. We have brought our A game, with gorgeous art you can clearly see. And this science fiction fantasy pre-post apocalyptic horror is an artistic expression delivered with passion and love and enthusiasm.

This book is a story about an earth shaking miracle, but in return, we are not asking for one. We want to continue to entertain you and fill your coveted collections with incredible stories and art you can be proud to own and share with your friends and family. We care about the tradition of creative expression and this beloved storytelling medium, We will honor every pledge and reward with high quality collectible books, story to inspire you from skilled professionals, and work together with fans and backers to grow our company into your new favorite place for imaginative entertainment.

We have a beautiful series planned, this will be the first of 4 issues in the fully written series. This first book is finished 100% complete so we will go directly into fulfillment after the 60 day campaign closes.

Thank you for reading and backing Author Bomb Books, and its a cool honor to be able to create for you. We are fans and we create out of love, and it is our professional pleasure to do this for all of you.

Funding Goal and Company Aspirations

Because I secured funding on my own, Author Bomb Books is launching a finished collector's edition first printing for fans. Every backer of the featured comic will get:

• Wonderful debut story introducing the heroes that is backed by celebrated pro talent
• The last published work of pro industry legend Dheeraj Verma, work from his surviving contributing daughters, and a tribute 2 page spread by illustration master Bart Sears
• A two page fantasy art spread by Joseph Arnold to honor a featured letter of recommendation by Ed Greenwood (Forgotten Realms, NYT Bestseller, Gamer's Choice HoF) as a guarantee on quality to you the fans. You all inspire us, and make this all possible!
• Quality you can see first, cover to cover, at the very highest standard in global publishing

In addition to owning the collector's edition of Hayvard Saint's 8, you are contributing to the growth of my startup, Author Bomb Books. We hire pros and cultivate new talent, and will change the way you see heroism going into the current emerging new age of storytelling.

We also have networked media partners working in Virtual Reality, Tabletop Gaming, and both animated/live action film. We will be building to eventually release media and interactive software and you will be a part of that simply by buying and enjoying our products going forward!

This is a humble book project with great ambition, but we think we are doing it right, and your support will employ quality talents while also contributing to a powerhouse of creativity. There is no limit to what we can accomplish together on the hallowed wings of freedom and creative expression!

Culmination and Closing

I have been tested and tried. I worked hard, dedicated, focused, and overcame on every front. I have secured funding on my own and have taken all the risk on my own time and dime to bring you all a finished masterclass in storytelling as an ongoing series you will love. It is narrative and dialogue delivered in an exciting new way, sequential art of the highest caliber, all can be seen up front backed by pros you have trusted for decades. I wanted to give you readers, collectors, and backers total confidence in your decision to back me, and we took every step to ensure that your hard earned money is honored.
