Crowdfunding Spotlight: Helga Frankenstein – Vengeance Express

By John Freeman on May 4, 2024 • ( 1 )

The Kickstarter campaign for Helga Frankenstein – Vengeance Express, an action horror tale by Diabolica writer John A. Short, ends on Kickstarter this Sunday, 5th May 2024.

A full-colour 44 page, square-bound action/ monster/ adventure/ horror story, Helga Frankenstein features art by Reverend Cross artist Gabrielle Noble and alternative covers by SHOKWAVE artist Chris (Switchblade Stories) Askham, and an Diabolica artist David Hitchcock.

Late to the party? Don’t worry, all issues are available to grab with the current Kickstarter! Plus, there’s a super-cheap all digital option to get all of Helga’s adventures – over 200 pages of vampire/ werewolf/ troll/ witch/ golem action!

Each issue is a self-contained adventure set in a lost land where supernatural creatures live in relative peace with one another and humans.

There’s not much time left to back this – check out Helga Frankenstein – Vengeance Express here on Kickstarter.
