To us, the concept one thing is “wereable” means it may be seen below a lens of magic, thriller, and transformation, akin to the metamorphosis of werewolves. “Wereable” as a studio began from our shared curiosity in romantics from black lagoons, monsters searching for understanding, and, after all, werewolves. The objective of this marketing campaign is to launch our studio and our first comedian collection! To maintain our studio post-Kickstarter we’re launching an internet retailer, The Wereable Shop, in addition to a Patreon. Here we’ll have our merchandise, launch new collections alongside the comedian, and characteristic further content material. Ultimately we need to carry our particular mix of anthropo-morphism (which means to humanize one thing which isn’t human), streetwear, and the horror style into one place. We hope you discover one thing from our studio that helps you uncover or categorical your self in a brand new and surprising manner. After all, shapeshifting is only a piece of the human psyche.

I’ve an M.S. in Criminology and Criminal Justice, so I can’t resist recommending My Neighbor Has a Red Curtain, based mostly on an unique poem by Haas of the identical title, a couple of criminology pupil. While there are numerous comics about detectives and cops and jail guards and lots of the jobs {that a} criminology diploma prepares you for, hardly ever does a comic book characteristic a criminology pupil themselves. I keep in mind these days fondly, and I used to be excited to see a narrative about my distant previous (though I interned in a murder unit, I by no means met, not to mention befriended, a serial killer).

But what actually made this graphic novel marketing campaign stand out was the paintings: though many of the artwork is in black and white, it’s so textured that it pops even on the pc display screen. GORG.
