Also, kickstarter if you feel like it

If you've never heard of it, Joe Madueira is bringing back his cult classic comic book from the late 90's.
This is the guy who brought us Darksiders, and who also regularly gets accues of ripping off typical Blizzard output (especially Warcraft 3 & WoW) That last bit isn't exactly true, but both he and Samwise Didier pull a lot of inspiration from old-school fantasy artists (Frank Frazetta in particular)

Battle Chasers also was a pretty unique comic, with an interesting setting sitting somewhere between high fantasy & steampunk.

And sheer production values put this far above the average Greenlight drek anyway.

Man, ol' Madureira should make a kickstarter to finish Darksiders saga. I mean, I hope he kept the rights over the games for himself.

Thanks for the info, will check it right NAW! :O

I am watching a Darksiders II LP lately, and the youtuber said that the franchise was bought by someone (edit: Nordic Games) and they already announced a game based in the darksiders universe (so no darksiders 3 confirmed)... I will search it, wait a moment

Game look very nice, at least as far as artstyle and animation goes. It also looks like it make it past it's goal easily which is great because I don't think I'll kickstart it but would be great if it makes it to Steam.

Can't say I've heard of it before, but voted based on setting you mentioned.

Ah, good old 90s Image are.
Gods, how terrible it was with low-grade schlock like Youngblood and Spawn ruling the era.
Battle Chasers was one of the fun ones though. When it was released. Madueira is worse sometimes than Quitely. Quitely at least has health problems to justify working half a year on 22 pages.
