Comic Book: Serial

Issue #1 Artwork: Pogo the Clown (John Wayne Gacy) crayon sketch
Issue #2 Writing: Lizzie Borden segment
Issue #3 Writing: BTK segment

Serial is about exactly what you might think. Each issue is an anthology based on real life serial killers, mass murderers and other legendary killers. Each issue has a theme. One story is short, the next is a little longer and the feature story is the majority of each book. In the first issue, I drew a crayon sketch of John Wayne Gacy's birthday party alter ego, Pogo the Clown. In the scond issue, I wrote a short about Lizzie Borden that intertwines the famous nursery rhyme with the facts of the police report. In the end, I'm not convinced that Lizzie is our killer. For the proposed third issue, I'll be writing a feature segment on the BTK Killer, Dennis Rader.
