If you take a devil-may-care attitude toward the final hours of this campaign, I’m afraid this Devil may care to pay you a visit…

Just about 3 days left to reach our goal. NOW would be a great time to check out the campaign and support indie comics! Otherwise we might have to send Trevor here over to your place while he's on a blood bender... #LINKINBIO

Here at Thorny Comics, we ask the tough questions. Like “what if Carrie were a comedy?”

A year after V1, a different group of lunatics (also Scott's students) got together a second volume of stories. Logan Rodgers, Jason Holtzman, & JB Hawkins. We took over the following year and rebranded to The CloakRoom - but none of it would be possible without the teams from V1 & V2!

We started as TALES FROM THE CLOAKROOM collecting 19 stories from Scott Snyder's students. It was truly awesome. One story, The Beekeeper's Due by Jimmy Stamp and Débora Santos, was nominated for an Eisner.
You can still get V1 in the current Kickstarter campaign.

Widowmaker was one of the first stories we got to sink our teeth into as editors, back in The CloakRoom #1. Written by @nickfriar.com, with art by Naiara Rodriguez. You can get a copy in the current Kickstarter (along with about 60 other great short stories...)

This is from The CloakRoom #2, written by JB Hawkins, art by Matt Salisbury, letters by Lyndon Radchenka.

One of hell's demons is trapped inside a literal corporate hell, until one of the souls offers a little perspective. An hilarious, satirical look at the daily grind.

Here's a story The CloakRoom #1, available in the current campaign as digital and/or physical copies.

Suicide By Zombie, written by Lance Stanford with art by Daniel Caval. The last man on Earth tries and fails repeatedly to get the zombies to eat him. You can still get a copy!

We want to work with your local comic shop! The CloakRoom has 2 "retailer tiers" - your shop can order 10 or 20 copies AT COST, and choose any combination of available trade covers for all 5 issues.

By Matt Mortal with line art by Vitor Fugita, THE LONG WAY HOME is a silent comic, the story of bounty hunters who stumble upon a wanted man who is much more than he seems. One more GREAT story from THE CLOAKROOM's new issue!

This is the variant cover for the new issue of The CloakRoom - by Xander Wise, who is incredibly talented. The second image was his haunting cover for our holiday issue last year - also available when you support this new issue!
