OUTPOST campaign for BRIDE ( A Bride of Frankenstein story)
4 days ago – Tue, Mar 31, 2026 at 10:55:47 AM

Please check out BRIDE (a Bride of Frankenstein story). BRIDE is a collaborative effort between Outpost 426 Studios and Naughty Faeries. It is a project that took me, CB Zane, a year and a half to complete artistically! I think it is some of my best work and I hope you'll agree! The campaign offers a bunch of amazing covers and amazing options: You can get the complete story in a 74 page graphic novel format, a 3 comic book mini series format and a nearly 45 minute animated motion comic book format!

We're off to print!

Hey, everyone!

Mike here with the update we've all been waiting for: the order is in with the printer! It took a little longer than hoped, but the process is underway. Now, it's just a matter of how soon they can get the job set up, printed, and shipped to our fulfillment partner. I’m hoping it all happens this month—there are still a few weeks to go, so let’s keep our fingers crossed. Of course, I'll keep everyone apprised of our progress. As the best effin' backers in the world, you deserve nothing less!!!

As a side note, I’d like to call attention to a project by a friend of the Outpost, Clint Hillinski. His project, The Superiors, is in pre-launch on Kickstarter:

His superhero stuff does a great job of capturing the exciting, action-packed, and yes, sexy nature of the 70s/80s/90s comics so many of us enjoyed before they became… whatever the hell they are now. If you grew up on the greats like George Perez, John Byrne, Jim Lee, Neal Adams, and Adam Hughes, there’s a great chance you’ll enjoy his work. Head over to his pre-launch page, and if you like what you see, hit that notification button:

That’s it for now. More to come!

Take care, Mike
