I've heard some terrible script ideas in my life of creative writing but a comic about super-powered dogs seemed reach a new low in bad story ideas. But soon a story began to take shape. I thought of my pit bull mix, PIG. The most lovable dog you could ask for but will maul the first person or animal he perceives is a threat to the ones he loves. There's also the stigma of pit bulls being too dangerous to be own that appealed to me . The hero of the story, the pit bull BUCK, is feared by the public due to his breed and size but is as kind-hearted a dog as you could find. So much so that his harsh treatment by humans doesn't sway his mission. He journeys across the country in an attempt to track down a dangerous dog before it carries out its owners plan for revenge on the American people.
I eventually went back to the screenplay I was hoping to get produced. After many stops and starts I abandoned the script and returned to what was becoming my passion project. I wrote an over 200 page outline for the comic series. My vision is for Alpha Dogs to run 140 issues, give or take a few comics ;)
I've hired Stone Tower Studios to produce the comic. As you can see they've done an incredible job. After completing the first six pages I was just about to submit Alpha Dogs to comic book publishers when Covid 19 hit.
The comic book industry which was on a down cycle is now a dumpster fire. But thanks to Kickstarter ,myself and hundreds of creators have a new avenue to see their vision come to life.
Half the comic is completed, I'm asking you to invest in the comic when it launches on Kickstarter so the second half of the 22 page comic can be finished and in your hands. Even if the comic isn't for you please spread the word.
Trust me you won't be disappointed!
