(Melbourne, Australia, Feb 19 2014) – Have you always wanted to be a degenerate? Have you ever wondered what a song about hurl sung to the tune of Madonna’s Material Girl might sound like? Have you ever wanted to exist in the same universe as Cerebus, a buxom Bigfoot, and ostrich prostitutes?

Well, now is your chance to have all these things and more in the WEIRD CRIME THEATER 130-PAGE GIANT Kickstarter campaign.

WEIRD CRIME THEATER 130-PAGE GIANT is a near-psychotic fever dream collection of the comic book adventures of cubicle jockey Granikos “Granny” Kinkade and schoolgirl barbarian Melissa the Conqueror. They fight crime and sometimes perpetrate them. Enemies include: mummies, poets, blow-up dolls, decency, stoners, et al, and the book includes an appearance by Cerebus drawn and lettered by Dave Sim himself! It’s Highlander II meets The Joy Luck Club!

According to writer Kumar Sivasubramanian, “Boot-boop-bee-doot-wee-doop!” and we couldn’t agree more. Somebody get this man a medallion!

Rewards include: special thanks credit in the book, signed scripts, signed books, unrelated manga, A4 prints, character sketches, sketches of you, and original art pages. For a measly, paltry, pathetic, ‘nad-detonating mere $22 (Australian) you can get a print edition of the book with shipping included anywhere worldwide!

And the granddaddy of all rewards: the opportunity to appear as a character in the comic in such illustrious company as demon gangsters, cyborg eight-year olds, Ninja Pussy, and Glenn Miller. Only one of these is left, so get in there!

Kumar is no stranger to comics having bought six copies of Rob Liefeld’s X-Force No.1 in 1991 to get all the trading cards. Those comics have now been recycled into other fine paper products. He has also had stories in Dark Horse Presents and translated over 90 volumes of manga for Dark Horse, Vertical, Fanfare, DMP, and other publishers.

Artist Mulele Jarvis likes music and drawing and used to eat a lot of ramen but his doctors told him to stop. His work includes artwork on FULL THROTTLE stories in DARK HORSE PRESENTS issues 152, 154, and 155, the last of which he also wrote; page layout and lettering on TRIGUN ANIME MANGA vol 1 & 2, HELLSING, HAIBANE RENMEI, SAYUKI RELOAD, and TUROK.

The Kickstarter campaign ends on March 17th so you’d better get your glutes over there, like, tout suite.
