Good gravy, I'm up late tonight. Hi guys! Coffee deprived Jenn here.
A little while back the guys and I had the amazing pleasure of doing a video interview with Mr. Tom Healy for his net show I Have Issues. It was a great time and, despite looking completely foolish, I think the three of us did good. Especially Jeff who did a helluva job doing a quick rundown of the copious amounts of awesome in the Twist in the Night Anthology. Not an easy feat, I assure you.
You can watch us here. Don't be shy! Let us know what you think and if you have any questions!

Pimping One of Our Own
Hi guys! Jenn here. I'm so excited to see this blog up and running and for the projects we're all working on at the moment. Stranger Danger Vol. 1 is done! The guys and I are so pumped for this book. I can't wait to finally see it in print. Keep an eye on the blog here for future previews of pages from the book!
Scotty Godlewski is just one of the 13 amazing people on Twist in the Night, our horror anthology due out this Halloween. We had the pleasure of meeting him (along with several other local artists/writers on the book) at the Phoenix comicon this past January. He, with four other hugely talented artists listed here, created Mysterious Adventure Magazine, which throws a modern twist on those great Silver Age anthologies. It's a fantastic book and put together so well. It's one of those indy books that should be high up on your to-buy list if you haven't already got your paws on it.
Keeping with the theme here keep an eye out for future entries about the creative bunch on Torn Studios books!

Inker: Bryce Lee
Cover Art : Tony Parker
An undercover cop (Victor Campbell) enters an old warehouse to meet with "The Fixer", the muscle bound vigilante who has been independently and aggressively taking drug dealers off the streets. Victor is shocked by what he sees in the warehouse office, a former fellow SWAT officer (Kent Dawning) who had been assumed dead for over five years. But not only is Kent alive, he is the Fixer. Kent, who looks nothing like his former self, now looking more like a tweaked out drug addict tells the story of how he became fixer for the first time and how it has consumed him to the point where normal life is no longer a option to him. On a botched drug bust in a spectacular and bloody fight, Kent is injected with a experimental new narcotic (Hyperdrenaline) that transforms him into the Fixer who has far above average strength and feels no pain whatsoever, once the drug wears off all the pain rushes back to him like it just happened all at once.
Release date to be posted soon.

Strange is more than a misunderstood video store clerk. Apparently he's also an alien masher with the power of destroying even the largest of motherships, or so the aliens believe. Will the aliens successfully invade this planet of highly evolved animals? Can Strange and crew thwart aliens, robotic duplicates and a genetically altered monster? For Strange, life just got a lot more interesting.
