After his first successful kickstarter campaign Beyond the Wall of Sleep, writer/artist Nick OG returns to the works of Lovecraft for his next psychedelic follow up! Titled HPL 1920, this comic will be a collection of 3 adaptations of stories written by HP Lovecraft in 1920 to be released for their hundredth anniversary of publication.
The three 1920 adaptations will be:
STATEMENT OF RANDOLPH CARTER-Set to be an 80’s adventure in the vein of Stranger Things.
THE CATS OF ULTHAR-This one is a more direct adaptation, drawing all these cats and the like is a blast!
THE DOOM THAT CAME TO SARNATH-Reimagined to be a heavy sword and sorcery story in the vein of a Conan adventure (HP Lovecraft was a friend and contemporary of Conan creator Robert E. Howard). This story will be metal as hell!
As all three stories are on the short side, all have been adapted as 8 page comics.
The writing is done, the cover is done, many of the extras are done and the art is in process. All monies raised from this kickstarter will be used for fulfillment of the material rewards and the printing of the book itself. Nothing short of the heat death of the universe or Ragnarok will stop this book! As i’ve said, the book is in progress. ALL backers over the $1 pledge level will receive their pdf of the finished 28 page story and additional digital content the days after the campaign ends. I’ve worked with the printer before for Beyond the Wall of Sleep, and they’re ready get rolling upon completion of the book. I can not wait for all of you to read it!
