Speaking of kickstarters...

Launched!

We are proud to present our new campaign for Bad Candy Issue #4!

Bad Candy #4 is penciled by horror comic legend Tim Vigil! Creator Robert Henry provides the story and the inks. Shawn Wilson did the layout and tones. Dirk Hooper did the lettering and will be doing the marketing.

The issue is completely finished and ready for press!

The first story arc of Bad Candy concludes with this issue, but you'll have a chance to pick up digial copies of all the previous issues! And this issue will herald the future direction of the comic.

We are so happy with how this comic came together and we're anxious to share it with you.
