Crystal Sea studios is proudly presents a new graphic novel by Richard Smith, currently being funded on Kickstarter.  Raising money to begin the first print run, Sydney-based artist Richard Smith promises that the comic will be a rich reward for supporters!

The tale focuses on young Crispus, who hides his monstrous appearance behind a mask that makes him look like everyone else.  This is crucial to his survival in his home, the oppressive, militaristic city of Hypocrium.  But soon he is unable to maintain the facade, and his mask cracks and he is forced to flee to the wilderness and face himself.

This project has been in the works for over a year and a half, and is at last ready to begin its print run. Anyone who wants to encourage independent comics or just loves a good story should look into being involved.
