Happy Friday the 13th, Nerdlings! I’ve had this comic on my list for a long time but haven’t had the chance to post it.
Before we continue, did you know that Friday the 13th has long been considered unlucky in Western superstition? From the Last Supper in Christianity (thirteen people were present before JC was crucified) to ancient Norse belief (Loki, the trickster god was said to be the thirteenth guest at a deadly feast). Then there was the mass arrest of the Knights Templar on the order of King Philip IV of France on Friday, October 13, 1307.
So, instead of celebrating Valentine’s Day tomorrow, let’s do something dark with this AWA Studio comic.
The blurb:
Jack King was a rock’n’roll god who projected a stage persona on par with the devil. After Jack dies on stage, his widow, Cindy, grapples with grief and struggles to protect his legacy, unaware that she is being surrounded by dark forces that covet the master tapes to Jack’s final, unreleased album – a heavy metal masterpiece that just might open a doorway to hell.
