“This is all of my 80s sci-fi nostalgia wrapped into a tight little package,” says Pfeifer, “it’s a project I’ve been working on for years and partnering with long-time colleague Cody Meyer to bring it to life has been terrific. It’s a mature read for mature readers and I think they’ll love it!”
Meyer explained, “MANEATER is a personal blend of detective and cyberpunk stories wrapped in stylized art. Its a comic with a strong female protagonist not bound to the usual comic book tropes. She’s intellectually and physically capable, living as a beat cop in a city built on the ruins of the world’s past mistakes.”
The creators are asking for $15,000 to produce the novel, which is also being produced as five separate issues. Backers who pledge $20 will receive the entire MANEATER saga while higher tiers allow for backers to contribute content to the comic. If funded, MANEATER: The Fall of Mankind is slated for release in March of 2014.
