INTERVIEW: Exploring guilt and horror in HEAVY with Trevor Fernandes-Lenkiewicz

I just backed HEAVY | A Supernatural Horror Comic on @kickstarter.com by @tflwrites.bsky.social www.kickstarter.com/projects/the...

HEAVY | A Supernatural Horror Comic

An existential horror about a dirtbag investigating the supernatural disappearance of the little brother he'd abandoned 16 years ago.

kickstarter.com

HEAVY is the type of horror story that makes you more afraid of yourself than any slasher in the shadows. It's about the crippling burden of shame and its propensity to catch up no matter how far you might run. ⚠ Only one week left to pre-order! 🔗 in bio! Or, search "HEAVY Kickstarter". #comics

When's the last time you read a comic book that was SO GOOD that you made sure a friend read it ASAP?

This book was very much inspired by my love of works like WYTCHES. If anything, it was my first real interaction with horror in a meaningful way, and set the tone for me to try and tell a story that uses the supernatural to speak to the things which make us most terrifyingly human.

Check out Pocket Watch Press, who has a huge announcement of their newest Horror book called Heavy, “inviting readers into a suffocating descent where shame doesn’t leave you—it’s relentless.” Check out the campaign below! pocketwatchpress.substack.com/p/the-horror...

Blending atmospheric dread with visceral horror, HEAVY explores what happens when the burden of guilt refuses to lift, crushing its characters and readers alike. These comics creeps to the slow realization that some nightmares don’t end. #comics www.kickstarter.com/projects/the...

Let's make a character sketch for your comic! 🎨 #comics #creation #indiecomics
