WHAT IS SARDONICUS?

SUPER SOLDIER

You’ve met Uncle Sam, now meet his team member and the man who resurrected him, Julian Bell, aka Super Soldier. Bell is an insanely intelligent engineer specializing in nanobots, super serums, and the reanimation of dead tissue. He is the strategic mind behind the corrupt vigilante team known as The Board. What do you think this team is up to in the first issue?

WIP #3–SARDONICUS

Just some more WIPs, but this time of Sardonicus because we can’t get enough of him. This is a panel excerpt from the first issue, including the illustrations before RJ inked them.

WIP #2

Some concept sketches RJ did for a few other superheroes in the first issue! It’s understood that there are a lot of characters going on here that it can be overwhelming to keep track. No worries! A lot of what we have posted is just world building and side characters to give you a sense of the story.

Which one is your favorite?

UNCLE SAM

Meet the freakish abomination once known as Samuel Liberty, aka Uncle Sam, a beloved American meta-human created during the Government Hero Program.

Fame grew to his head overtime, however, and he became more callous and dangerous.

Eventually thinking himself invincible, he took on battle with a gigantic, mutant plant and found himself chomped to literal bits and his brain destroyed. "Brilliant" engineer Jason Bell stitched him back to life, without a brain. He is now paraded around as a symbol of heroism by the government.

RADIANCE

Also known as Fira Valenwood, a pint-sized member of the Cosmic Gladiators. Fairies are rare, due to most existing in another realm. But Fira escaped her kingdom due to an insectoid-fairy/vampire hybrid taking over the land and ruling with an iron claw. Will she ever be able to return home or has she found a new family within her vigilante team?

WIP #1

Some WIP panels from the first issue, featuring the Cosmic Gladiators, as they pose for press outside their HQ. If you notice carefully, there is a character that hasn’t been introduced—who or what do you think they are?

RED SHADOW

Meet Zenna Twillen, aka Red Shadow. Ol' Red here is a shadow demon, a rare type of demon that exists largely in the spiritual plane of existence. She has willed the evil out of her soul to do good in the world as part of the Cosmic Gladiators. Unfortunately, this evil likes to fight back—and she can end up accidentally breaking things on a molecular level through her demonic touch.

THE GILL

Meet The Gill, aka Kason Rushing, a 130 year old merman with a penchant for staying in his aquatic form. Together, alongside Admiral Sunscar, Rushing leads the Cosmic Gladiators into battle. How do you think he stays hydrated on land?

LUNAR-MAN

Meet Luben Benally, aka Lunar-Man. Luben is a werewolf who masters in the rare school of Lunar Magic, only practiced and passed down generationally by lycanthropes who dedicate themselves to the spirituality of the Moon.

He is member of the model vigilante team known as The Cosmic Gladiators, alongside Admiral Sunscar and several others! Look out for their debut in the upcoming first issue.

ADMIRAL SUNSCAR

Meet Morgan Sunscar aka Admiral Sunscar! Morgan is a Sunbein alien, a species with an unlimited and detailed memory coupled with the ability to regenerate.

Sunscar is co-leader of the model vigilante team known as The Cosmic Gladiators. Will he and his team be able to handle the incoming supernatural storm?

THE HARE BROTHERS

Meet the Hare Brothers! They are two identical rabbit-like humanoids with bug eyes. Are they from another dimension? What are they? One could literally call them BUG Bunnies!

The Hare Bros. make their debut in the upcoming first issue, where they prey on families playing at the park. What do you think the brothers are up to?

SARDONICUS

Meet Sardonicus, a malefactor trickster figure of unknown origin. He makes his debut in the upcoming first issue of GHOSTWOOD, robbing a jewelry store.

No one is quite sure what Sardonicus is or the scope of his abilities-but he seems to escape even the most dire of situations with ease. Do you have any guesses of what his abilities or goals are?

Prepare yourself for GHOSTWOOD

GHOSTWOOD is a haunting new comic series from writer Zach Zeman and artist RJ Silvers.

Set in the eerie and expansive state of Ghostwood-spanning the entire West Coast of the United States-this is the only place where vigilantism is legal, and it's attracting more than just heroes. The government's shadowy Institute for Paranatural Control (IPC) is tasked with keeping a lid on a growing nightmare of meta-humans, rogue vigilantes, and the unexplained.

But something far more terrifying is happening in Ghostwood.

Unexplainable disappearances, terrifying hauntings, and dark forces lurking beneath the surface. As the IPC races to contain the chaos, they'll confront a horror that defies everything they thought they knew.
