FEARSCAPE #1

From Ryan O’Sullivan (Void Trip), Andrea Mutti, Vladimir Popov, and Deron Bennet comes FEARSCAPE. The Fearscape is a world beyond our own, populated by the manifestations of our greatest fears. Once per generation, The Muse travels to Earth, discovers our greatest Storyteller, and takes them with her to the Fearscape to battle these fear-creatures on our behalf. All has been well for eons, until The Muse encounters Henry Henry—a plagiarist with delusions of literary grandeur. Mistaking him for our greatest Storyteller, she ushers him into the Fearscape. A fake man in a fake land…this is the story of the wrong person answering the call to adventure, and the doom that followed.

Praise:

“Wow. F*ck you guys. Ryan O’Sullivan and Andrea Mutti, I know you see me, and yet I will stand over your graves. FEARSCAPE is an evil and really very good comic. It is so comedically archly self-aware, its tongue is so far in its cheek it’s practically licking its own eyeball from the inside. I really enjoyed it.”
-Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan, Planetary, Injection)

“Prrrrrobably wouldn’t have chosen ‘Wow. F*ck you guys’ as the pullquote there.”
-Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan, Planetary, Injection)

“If Fearscape is not at least nominated for an Eisner, I will be shocked. I have never seen so many layers delivered with such ease, let alone in a first issue. I cannot wait to see what the rest of this series offers.”
-Maria Beth, Outright Geekery

“At some point we’re going take a step back and realise just how good a year 2018 has been for comics. It seems that nearly every week new books are being released that exemplify the best of what this medium is capable of. Each week sees a fresh contender asking new questions and approaching novel ways of storytelling. It’s almost as if the creative force of the industry has been engaged in a long-running game of one-upmanship. For my money, however, FEARSCAPE from the talented team of Ryan O’Sullivan (writer), Andrea Mutti (illustrator), Vladimir Popov (colorist), and Deron Bennett (letterer) is going to be the breakout hit of the year. From its inaugural outing alone, it is sure to be a perennial hit. We need more intelligent, witty, and bold stories like FEARSCAPE. You’ll be re-reading this for years to come.”
