Offspring is an ode to H.P. Lovecraft, without a doubt. His stories have had a tremendous impact on how I view the horror genre and this tale has many of the classic elements found in his work. Sailors lost at sea, a mysterious island, and a nameless horror lurking below. And after confronting that horror, the protagonists life inevitably spirals into madness or death.
Or both.
I hope you enjoy this one. It’s my first attempt at putting together a full length comic, 22 pages and all. The artwork is courtesy of the brilliant, devious mind of Adam Christopher and the colours are Henry Huang’s.
