AEGISTEEL is the first wholly original property published by Outland Entertainment, written by Mat Nastos, illustrated by Alan Gallo and myself (Jeremy Mohler), and lettered by Ed Dukeshire.
I can't begin to express how excited I am to have Outland publishing this beast and to have helped design and bring Mat's world to life. It's been a lot of fun having the chance to play in this world and I'm looking forward to sitting down and digging into the actual main series. I'm just now getting started on layouts for the first issue and man, it's going to be fun!
A little bit about the world -
AEGISTEEL is a spellpunk adventure set in the world of the Aegisteel Empire, a society of steel and magic built on the backs of its soldiers and terrible war machines. Think of it as DIRTY DOZEN meets SMOKING ACES set in a war-torn SPELLPUNK world.
When the Theln Empire captures the ancient Aegisteel forges at Nelvynnal, veteran marksman Broderick Longbarrel is released from Blackgate Prison and given one last chance for redemption. Tasked with infiltrating the ancient and impenetrable fortress, Longbarrel and five former death row inmates must succeed before the Theln can begin production of the giant war-golems that could shift the balance of the war.
Below are the layouts and some additional designs I did for the project -
And below are the first eleven pages, fully colored and lettered!
The book is also now available digitally over here!
Hope you like it!
