Aid for the Undead in Indie Comics HORROR #1

When facing the undead we may want to run away or pull a machete. A country minister takes another path in Indie Comics HORROR #1, in September's Previews, Diamond's comic book preorder catalog, under Aazurn Publishing.

"Chris Beckett and Dan Lauer offer a different kind of horror story, perfect for the first issue of our indie anthology," said Aazurn Publishing Publisher/Editor Gary Scott Beatty. "It's sad -- and creepy."

Hailing from Maine, C.M. Beckett, with friend and creative partner Dan Fleming, self-published four issues of the black and white, comics/prose anthology, "Warrior27," recently collected in a 254-page edition that includes new and never-before-published pieces.

Beckett has written for the Pulse, contributed to the flash fiction sites 50 Years From Now and Elephant Words, and has had his short stories published by Ape Entertainment, Dark Recesses Press, and Top Shelf Comics.

Beckett said he does most of his writing in the dark, once everyone else is asleep. See more of his work at http://www.warrior27.com/.

Six complete stories of dread from a variety of creators shamble through Indie Comics HORROR #1, the best fear from independent comic book creators. Said Beatty, "We like complete stories, well told!"

Information about creators and a video preview of Indie Comics HORROR #1, with music by the appropriately indie Chantron, is online at IndieComicsMagazine.com.

With no huge overprint, no digital version and no back issue sales, Indie Comics HORROR is available ONLY at your local and online comic book shops. It is best to preorder from September's Previews, said Beatty. Some Indie Comics Magazine issues, like last year's Christmas issue, are now difficult to find.

"We're under Aazurn Publishing, nearly first in Previews' comic book listings," said Beatty. "Look for the ad with the decaying zombie head."
