SWEETS - A New Orleans Crime Story


It's finally official! July 14th is the tentative release date for Sweets, a new comic by 30 Days of Night and Punks: The Comic artist Kody Chamberlain and Image Comics. Here's the blurb from Kody's Kickstarter site:

SWEETS is a 5 issue full color miniseries by writer and artist Kody Chamberlain. This comic is being published by Image Comics with an estimated release date of July 14, 2010.

A spree killer terrorizes New Orleans days before Hurricane Katrina makes landfall. Detective Curt Delatte just buried his only daughter, he’s in no condition to work. But when the bodies pile up, he masks his grief and joins the hunt through the bowels of the Big Easy. It won’t be long until his city, and his evidence, gets washed away.


Kody did the story, pencils, inks, colors and letters by himself on this one, and yours truly handled the editing work!

Support original, creator-owned comics! Get yourself a copy of Sweets on July 14th!
