Farmhouse, a psychological neo noir thriller, is written by playwright Elizabeth J. Musgrave (Hell Comes to Hollywood) and illustrated by Szymon Kudranski (Spawn).
Frank Forte has announced that Asylum Press will release the original graphic novel Farmhouse as an ongoing web comic series and digital app.
Farmhouse is the story of a drifter named Sam Corneile who returns home to take a job at a local mental institution where he discovers a group of patients being exploited under an art therapy regimen. While there, he falls for Helen, a feisty but troubled woman who dares him to confront his past. This psychological thriller examines what lurks deep within the human mind, both sane and insane.
“This was my first graphic novel and it was very exciting to see it come to life visually,” explains writer Elizabeth J. Musgrave, “Szymon really nailed the dark and gritty feel of the characters and the mental ward.”
“Farmhouse was a challenging story for me to illustrate, it provided me the opportunity to work in a different style that complimented the setting,” says Szymon Kudranski, “If anyone is interested in how my work looked before Spawn and Penguin, they should check out that book.”
Farmhouse #1 is 100% FREE and available on Comixology, ComicsPlus (Iverse), Graphicly, Diamond Digital, MyDigitalComics, DrivethruComics, Amusedom as well as stand alone apps and epubs on KindleFire, Nook, Kobo, ibookstore, and Googlebooks. Forthcoming issues will all be .99.
“We wanted to make the book inexpensive and available to as many people as possible,” explains publisher Frank Forte.
“We’re very excited about the possibility of reaching so many people all over the world, “ explains publisher Frank Forte, “tablets and smart phone ownership is exploding and we want to provide great comics content. The one obstacle we face is coordinating releases an all platforms and devices. We’ll be updating which comics are available on which platforms on our website.”
