WILLIAM OF NEWBURY #1 is out this week!

Issue 1 of four connecting covers is out this week! Here is the extended trailer, thanks to my pal Sean McManus!

Loosely based on real events in 12th century England during what was known as “The Anarchy.” A time where the country was beset with plague, civil war, and demons.

Newbury is dark, yet quaint, deadly yet cute. Follow him as he negotiates with thieves, evades his brother and the church, and battles the undead and evil spirits.
