TORN/Southern Squadron #17 part 1

When it comes to ADD-ONs for this campaign, we are privileged to announce the second and final conclusion to the Southern Squadron DARK comic. Bou Jadine (Bodine Amerikah), of Niteside and Rock fame, has outdone himself with a twisted, unique story that’s sure to captivate a cult following. This installment is bound to make its mark in Australian comic history as a must-read, mind-blowing masterpiece.

What is 'Southern Squadron DARK #2?

Editor Blare Wentworth sets the scene:

"Southern Squadron Dark #2(the second of a two-part mini-series) is one of the most visually exciting books I have ever seen featuring the characters of the Southern Squadron. Conceived during the early COVID lock-down, “Southern Squadron Dark” is the love child of the team’s creator Dave de Vries and that master of fantasy horror and mystical superheroes the one and only, Beaumont Jardine.

Bo and Dave met each other only a couple of years after the Squadron first appeared in print, when OZ comics morphed into the mean and nasty shock horror comic Phantastique (which was lovingly banned in over half the country). Recruited to conjure up some comic nasties that straddled the superhero and fantasy/horror genres, they became regulars within the title and, over the years, close friends.

When Bo first came to Dave, back in 2020 with a dream of reinterpreting the team with a nasty, darker (dare I say, more Phantastique-like) side, Dave was ecstatic. Even more so when he found that Bo was pairing them off with a bunch of characters which homage just about every Aussie comicbook star to grace the Bronze Age newsstands. That’s right, this series is simply chock full of easter eggs. Whether it’s the song lyrics or the homage characters, every page is loaded with delights. (There’s even a wee homage to “yours truly”.) Stay sweet my darlings. And enjoy!" - Blaire Wentworth

"It's not often you get the chance to support a Kickstarter project that has a major impact on the Australian creative scene. Once again, REVERIE Publications has delivered a mind-blowing event that will change how we see Australian superhero universes. The first TORN/Southern Squadron comic, part of a three-part story arc, is brought to life by writers Dave De Vries and Rob Lisle, with artwork by Ben Sullivan. Dave De Vries also handles the lettering and colors, while the stunning 3D comic design and brilliant video editing come from the talented Frantz Kantor. Behold— the world of Australian superheroes will never be the same again.

"With TORN, my goal has been to showcase the diverse range of Australian characters in the comic landscape through team-ups and crossovers. This project, which has been a long-held dream, is now becoming a unique reality as word spreads. It’s an exciting and ambitious endeavor, celebrating the richness of Australian comics. By blending beloved characters with newer ones, we’re not only appealing to long-time fans but also welcoming new readers into the fold. Stay tuned for some fantastic stories featuring both cherished icons and fresh faces in the comic world." - Gary Dellar
