Howdy folks,

It’s been a busy year and a busy November. We successfully funded The Sire: Aftermath #1 and for that we are THANKFUL! So, this week’s newsletter will be kept short. Instead, I’m posting the first SIX pages of The Sire: Aftermath #1 for FREE.

But first, a quick Behind The Scenes. I detailed in a previous post how The Sire was based on the original comics I created as a kid called Streetfighter. And over the course of junior high to high school to college the story evolved into a galaxy-spanning epic featuring the creation of a Supreme Being known as The Councel. Even cooler? I was able to bring that story line to fruition in The Sire: Revelations mini-series back in 2007.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!

The skinny: The villain known as The Presence rebelled against the Councel and was punished, imprisoned in an orbiting prison cell above the Earth until Siphon accidentally unleashed his power across the globe, creating an army of superhumans for the first time in history.

Truth be told, it never occurred to tell the story of the rebellion. It was never detailed in my sixth grade adventures, it was always simply the backstory to propel Volume one forward.

So imagine my surprise when I’m putting together The Sire: Aftermath and it dawns on me – the rebellion is something we need to see! And in doing so, I’ve completely turned my original intentions on its head. The Councel was introduced as a good guy! In fact, he was the ULTIMATE good guy, granting The Sire full control over his costume by the end.

But what if he’s not the good guy? What if The Sire’s been fighting on the wrong side this entire time? Thus, begins the Aftermath.

With that in mind, enjoy the first six pages of The Sire: Aftermath here! And if you want to get in on The Sire, there’s still time to get in on LATE PLEDGES before it goes away.

Finally, there’s this Black Friday thing happening, so I figure it’d be fun to give you guys a 20% discount on everything sirestudiosinc.com has to offer. Just type in the code BF24 at checkout.
