"Chicken Outfit : The Comic "by Joe Deagnon & Kirby Stasyna. "Kickstarter Close Date: May 2. "Publish Date Issue #3: Oct 31". Joe Deagnon writes

The story of "Chicken Outfit" focuses on Stan Munson and Rusty McDoodle, two hapless office drones working in corporate cyber-porn under the management of a madman and his lap-dog cronies. During a secret experiment, Stan inadvertently opens a portal to another dimension and brings about hell on earth. As the story progresses, Stan and his best friend Rusty team up with a drunken psychic who harbours a bizarre secret. Follow their adventures as they attempt to sabotage their employer's nefarious plans, fight douchebags and demons, save the girl, and, ultimately, discover their soul-shattering fates.

Drawing inspiration from 80s horror and sci-fi films, underground comix from the 60s and 70s and first-hand office culture, "Chicken Outfit", a phantasmagoria of horror, fantasy, science fiction, satire and parody."

Chicken Outfit is a comic series for our future-shocked times. Follow these two hapless slobs in"an adventure that will unhinge "the doors of perception" and stomp its way into your heart" with a pair of blood-clotted, steel cleats. Can Rusty and Stan keep their jobs, and sanity, intact when they can't trust anyone and there's an axe lurking behind every back?

When asked about the inspiration behind the creation of Chicken Outfit, artist and co-writer Deagnon said, "As fans of underground comix from the 1970's like Zap and The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, horror comics like Weird, E.C.'s Tales From The Crypt, Creepy and Eerie and magazines like National Lampoon, Mad Magazine and Heavy Metal, we started Chicken Outfit in the tradition of comics we've loved and would like to see more of."

We're dedicated to bringing a quality series to people who love satireand parody inspired by these early influences as well as our own brand of humor. We want to use Kickstarter to build on our audience and get some like-minded people on board to help make issue #3 of Chicken Outfit happen.If you like dark humor, sci-fi, splatter movies and underground comix

We started development for Chicken Outfit with the goal of taking great care to create a universe with compelling characters and themes. The plan is to complete four issues of each comic, which run from 32-42 pages (#3 looks to be even more jam-packed, if the script is any indication), then bound them together in an extended graphic novel format for volume one.
