More About Our Sponsor:

‘Anubis: Dog of Death’ is a supernatural action comedy series.

As the name indicates, it stars Anubis, the Egyptian god of death. But while he was once a feared and respected deity, in today’s modern world he has lost most of his believers, and thus most of his power.

He now has to navigate his new life as a tiny disgruntled purse dog in L.A., along with gods from all kinds of different religions who have suffered similar faiths.

Imagine American Gods, but with a dog Garfield as the main lead.

The kickstarter for issue 1 is going LIVE on February 4th! You can also follow the creator at facebook.com/sindrelf for updates on the project.

Will you adopt Anubis, the dog of death, into your comic book collection?
