The Corpse

This wicked woman to the left here is the Serpent Queen and she was created as the villainess for a story I scripted for a good friend's series called The Corpse.

Created by Ken Haeser and Buz Hasson, The Corpse is a horror book about an avenging zombie out to try and redeem himself by protecting the earth from the rest of the evil that roams the darkness.

I've known Ken for several years now and we had always wanted to work on something together but we just couldn't get the planets to align properly for that to happen. We even put together a Firestorm pitch for DC Comics that never got sent in but to this day is eerily similar to the story and concept that was re-launched a year later.

Always busy with other projects, Ken set off to produce his popular Eyes of Asia series with Digital Webbing while I kept producing shorts for DWP and did freelance work like the Divas book.

I finally met Ken and his co-creator Buz at the Pittsburgh Comic Con in 2004 where the seeds of The Corpse had been planted. By the time I saw them again in 2005 they had a Zero issue for sale and were hard at work putting Issue #1 together. Now as I write this they guys are more than half way finished with issue #3 and my script is slated to make it's debut as issue #5 or #6 later this year.

For those of you who love horror and want more info on The Corpse, check out the website right here: http://www.corpsecomic.com/ The guys also have a Blog and a MySpace site to promote the hell out of this book and get it noticed.

And don't forget kids, if you like what you see remember to demand a Corpse/Last Paladin crossover. Till next time...
