Escape From Jesus Island

After 20 years of toying with this story, five years of daily obsessive writing and a year of production, the Jesus Island journey begins TODAY! A special Phantom Variant issue of Escape From Jesus Island, Episode 1, is hitting store shelves this morning. This is a limited run and pre-sales have been crazy, so they are expected to go fast.After our exclusive 30-day preview run at the Phantom stores, Episode 1 will have a wider release on Jan. 20, including a digital version on all the major e-reader platforms.

The first installment in our epic journey is entitled ‘A STAB in the Dark’:

A group of activists from the animal rights group STAB (Stop Treating Animals Badly) breaks into the remote Malsum Island Research Facility, determined to document the horrific abuse of animals by pharmaceutical giant ReGen Corp. They discover too late that the horrors in ReGen’s laboratory exceed anything they could have imagined in this first installment in the Apocalyptic comic book series from writer Shawn French and illustrator Mortimer Glum.

Clive Barker was kind enough to check out an advance copy of Episode 1 and had this to say:
“May I recommend a comic by writer Shawn French and artist Mortimer Glum. It’s called Escape From Jesus Island, and it has been created with immense love, commitment and vision. It’s almost like seeing a hyper-intense Italian movie for the first time: your mind will be blown.”
