Ahead of the launch The Tide Volume Three, comic creator Adam Lumb has launched a Gallery Collection crowdfunder, featuring new Art Prints by Adam himself and a new piece by legendary artist Staz Johnson (Batman/Aliens, Dracula, X-Men, 2000AD, Marvel, DC).
“If you’ve read the acknowledgments in The Tide Volume One, you’ll know Staz was very supportive with the launch of the book,” says Adam, “so when he offered to do an original piece, I jumped at the chance. The piece is paired with my own painting which hints of things to come in The Tide Volume 3”.
Sheffield-based creator Adam Lumb is the creator of the The Tide comic series and Rich and Strange Press, his publishing imprint. Alongside his work as an artist and writer he describes himself as a “suit” – a trained picture editor, IP, image and brand consultant and has worked for many art galleries and in TV over the past 20 years.
The Tide graphic novel series, planned to run to 12 volumes in total – a non-stop witness protection thriller, set in a world that endures 36 hours of monstrous leviathan attacks, every time tidal gateways open.
There are two books in series so far: The Tide – Witness Protection in Hell (reviewed here) and The Tide – Manhunt, the series released for regular crowd funding campaigns on Kickstarter.
