The Stage 32 Videos: Graphic Novel Series

The Book Trailer for the super hero comedy series - "THE HERD"! In an anthropomorphic world, a family of foxes and their friends find their superpowers and problems at the bottom of a bottle of contaminated fruit juice. This comedic adventure kicks off with an act of sabotage by a disgruntled employee at Foxy Fruits, a prominent fruit juice company in Maple City. The employee's malicious act of introducing a secret formula into the juice production line unwittingly unleashes a city-wide supernatural pandemic, transforming ordinary citizens into beings with bizarre and uncontrollable powers. At the heart of this crisis is Fox Canidae, the beleaguered CEO of Foxy Fruits, who finds himself facing not just a corporate nightmare but a threat to the very fabric of Maple City. With his company's reputation and the city's safety at stake, Fox assembles an amateur team of heroes, dubbed "The Herd," to counter the chaos and prevent the superpowered pandemic from breaching the city's borders. "The Herd" is a satirical take on the superhero genre, featuring an anthropomorphic cast of characters that bring a unique blend of humor, action, and heart to the story. The narrative spans four volumes, each escalating the stakes as Fox and his team grapple with their newfound abilities, confront villains from the nefarious group "The Pack," and strive to safeguard the city and its inhabitants. As the situation in Maple City spirals, "The Herd" faces challenges that test their resolve, teamwork, and understanding of their powers. From dramatic escapes and kidnappings to internal conflicts and the threat of an ever-expanding pandemic, the series weaves a tale of heroism, family, and the quest to do right in the face of overwhelming odds. With its all-ages appeal, "The Herd" offers a vibrant, action-packed, and humor-filled reading experience, inviting readers to #followtheherd through twists, turns, and an array of pop culture nods, ensuring an engaging journey for both young readers and adults alike. This origin story, with its colorful art and meta humor, redefines what it means to be a hero, making "The Herd" a must-read for fans of superhero tales with a light-hearted edge. Celebrated for its excellence, "The Herd" has garnered significant acclaim, winning five prestigious awards: first place in the Winning Writers North Street Book Prize for their graphic novel category at the end of 2021, a Readers' Choice Book Award for Best Children's Book ages 8-12 in June of 2022, a Finalist award for the Canadian Book Club Awards and a first place award with The Book Fest Awards in October of 2022, and concluding the year with its 5th award, the 1st place Royal Dragonfly Book Award for Graphic Novel Ebook at the end of December 2022. These accolades underscore "The Herd's" remarkable impact and its place as a distinguished contribution to the graphic novel genre.

Here is the Campaign video for my upcoming Kickstarter Campaign to raise funds to print the next 3 books of my series, "Black Project". Black Project is actually the first story I took seriously after high school, and wrote as a screenplay upon finishing Film School back in 1995. The last time I worked on the script was in 2000 and I put it away. I moved on and ended up having a career as a Storyboard artist, and only took coming back to comics when I rediscovered Black Project's script files on an old back up disk. Safe to say, revisiting my first script was not pleasant as I found myself cringing, but, I saw its potential and reformatted the script to be a comic series. I've made a lot of changes visually, character, and with story arcs but the core of the story is the same, and its been possibly the most fruitful experience as a creator than I have ever had in any other discipline. Launch is in a few days, and I hope to see you all on Kickstarter soon!

Here is our welcome video on our new website set to launch in the next couple of weeks. Super excited!!
