NEW BIRDKING MURAL

Live now at Gosh Comics in London - Freshly hand painted mural by Crom himself.

To commemorate the release of Vol 1 Crom painted a new mural which was followed by, quote: “Crom’s dream singing and release party.” Wish I could have been there…

KALI LIVES!!

After sevens years of production and eight months of patiently waiting, KALI is in unleashed! Can’t describe the joy, relief and excitement I’m feeling seeing the book in the wild.



I drove around LA on the day of release to various stores and signed books, stamped them with my new seal and met some new readers along the way. Returned home to find the master Mike Mignola himself left an unprompted comment on Robert’s FB. Damn it feels good to be a gangster.


Early reviews are above and beyond. This one especially made me smile.

Kali is available now in comic book shops and will be available widely from any book retailer, including amazon, B&N, etc, on Oct 11, 2022.

THE BIRDKING LANDS AT DARK HORSE COMICS

A New Dark Fantasy Epic from the Creators of ‘Raiders’

MILWAUKIE, Ore., (XXXX)— From the creators of the hit graphic novel Raiders, Daniel Freedman and CROM, comes an original dark fantasy graphic novel of epic adventure and magic in Birdking Vol. 1, from Dark Horse Comics.      

Bianca, teenage apprentice to an infamous arcane blacksmith, is forced to flee her homeland and seek out Atlas, a fabled land of light ruled by “the clean god.” She is joined by a mysterious guardian spirit known only as the “BirdKing”. Together they will have to overcome dozens of obstacles and enemies to reach Atlas and along the way, unravel the mystery of the BirdKing and their ancestral connection.

Birdking has been living in my head for years, invading my thoughts and waiting for the right story that would bring him to life in the only way a wraith of his calibre deserves. Fire, magic, undead champions, necromancers, skulls and fat swords, this book has it all. I can’t imagine a better playground to lark about in. I’m loving it.” — CROM

“When CROM came to me after Raiders with the Birdking, the entire epic unfolded in such an organic way I did not believe it. Our collaboration has never been stronger and while we have throughly enjoyed our time exploring this vast and distinct fantasy world, we cannot wait for readers to gain access and bask in the glory that is Birdking.” — Daniel Freedman 

Birdking Vol. 1 trade paperback will be available everywhere books are sold September 13, 2022. The 160-page graphic novel is available for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and at your local comic shop and bookstore. Birdking Vol. 1 will retail for $19.99.

KALI ANNOUCNED

It’s official, KALI will be available everywhere comics and books are sold August 17th, 2022.

170 pages presented in a prestige oversized hardcover format.

See the press release below for more info:


MILWAUKIE, Ore., (March 17, 2022)— From Dark Horse Books, Daniel Freedman (Raiders), and renowned illustrator Robert Sammelin comes Kali, an original graphic novel that’s a nonstop, high-octane existential action spectacle.     

Stabbed in the back, poisoned, and left for dead by her own biker gang; Kali sets off on a one-way road of vengeance across a war-torn desert battlefield. With impending death coursing through her veins and a fascist army hot on her tail, Kali will stop at nothing to get her revenge, even if it’s the last thing she ever does.

“Seven years in the making, Kali represents a major creative milestone for me in more ways than one. What began as an exploitation throwback evolved into the most emotionally powerful story I have written and I do not say that lightly.” —Daniel Freedman

Kali is the comic book I’ve always wanted to make; a cinematic story fusing Sergio Leone and Jack Hill, bikers and bombast, revenge and psychedelia—an effortless story, but one with a violently hot beating heart.”—Robert Sammelin

Kali hardcover will be in comic shops August 17, 2022. It is available for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and at your local comic shop and bookstore. Kali will retail for $29.99.

Raiders made its debut in the UK at Gosh Comics in London. Crom himself painted the window display. A first for me and a new level of cool.
