This week independent comic creators Inked Dreams launched their graphic novel Gray Cells on Kickstarter after offering issue one free on their site.
The book is a supernatural thriller about a journalist’s search for the truth after a series of child abductions plague her city. “Gray Cells is a book about division and injustice. Our main characters are fighting against the city and its systems as much as they are fighting the book’s villain.” – Debut writer, Lawrence Goodman.
Set in a fictional US city, Gray Cells looks into some of the issues plaguing the modern world, inequality, corruption, and injustice. “We crafted the villain as a reaction to what we saw in the news. The world seems to be split into two competing realities, both sides certain of their own truths, and we wanted Gray Cells’ villain to embody that. He twists people’s perceptions into what suits his needs, using it to manipulate and evade detection.”
UK writer Lawrence Goodman is helped in his first comics outing by veteran artist Kay based out of Michigan, colorist Corey Ranson from Oregon and letterer Nikki Powers from California. The team met last year through social media site Reddit and have hit the ground running with their debut book, raising $2500 in their first day, garnering positive reviews, and securing the UK’s leading independent publisher Markosia to distribute their book.
You can still access issue one for free at https://inked-dreams.com/gray-cells and the full 140 page graphic novel is available through their Kickstarter.
