The WaterBear - Issue #8

Where stories come alive, one page at a time.

COMING TO KICKSTARTER 01-08-2023

'Sasquatch Vikings' Issue #2 - The Great Old One, a tale of a vicious Viking raid upon an unsuspecting coastal village and its indigenous people, who share the land with a peaceful, highly developed Sasquatch population. The indomitable Viking warrior Gorm and his ruthless, cunning second Revna lead the Vikings in their sojourn to the New World. Their reckless but utterly devastating raid unleashes a series of events that will change everything for the people of the land, including the Sasquatch Lorekeeper known as Heartweaver, and the indigenous scout Fleet Fox and her father, the Chieftain called Bear-that-sleeps. How will our heroes respond to the vicious first strike by the merciless Vikings? Will the surge of violence pull a peaceful people into war of vengeance? Find out in 'Sasquatch Vikings' issue #2!

Tardigrade Press is back with this second offering in the 'Sasquatch Vikings' series co-created by Chad Leduc (LED76) and Darrell Sawatzky - this time featuring artist and YouTube influencer Dr. Rocke! The good doctor elevates this series to a whole new level with his iconic illustrations and explosive style. He is joined by the talented colourist Daniel Traistaru. Writer/co-creator Darrell Sawatzky returns for this issue alongside creator Chad Leduc himself lettering.
