Ben Templemsith Launches New Vikings Comic, Blood Songs

Ben Templesmith is launching a new anthology comic, about dark age Vikings, called Blood Songs.

unnamed-1I'm going to guess there is an emphasis on the former. And he has, as is traditional, taken it to Kickstarter.

Some blurb.

What I hope to be a potential multi volume anthology series of dark ages viking stories, if there's support and interest from folks like you! Set in a time when kingdoms were won and lost by the sword, when power was measured by how many men would fight and die for you. When the old gods were still followed, before the crusades brought the power of the church to all of Europe.

I've been slowly working on these stories on planes as I go to conventions, in airports during delayed flights and really, any downtime I get between my regular comics work over the last 2 years. It's finally time I tried to put them out into the world!

*This book does contain some language you will hear grownups use in the real world.*

And some promises.

unnamed-2  Apparently it has been completed, creatively. So, it shouldn't be late.4e0974691b6f90ee411b7c1eb69da32b_originalEmphasis on "shouldn't."
