What genre do you write?
Horror science-fantasy gothic with a lot of action and comedy. We truly believe in art imitating life and, last time we checked, life doesn't exactly have just one genre!
Riserverse Comics features a series of collaboratively written tales played out in a horror science-fantasy gothic setting.
Our first book - The Fools' Gambit: Part One - is currently complete!
It will be 100 pages and full color.
Pre-orders are available now through our in-house store (linked above) and we have a Kickstarter running until Pi Day on March 14th!
March 15th, 2024 update:
Happy post Pi Day, everyone!
Our Kickstarter campaign has succeeded at 271% funded. We will be moving forward with the printing of The Fools' Gambit: Part One; expect it to be available starting in June, with the debut happening at 3 Rivers Comicon in Pittsburgh on June 1st & 2nd!
For anyone who missed out and wants a copy, pre-orders are still available over on our shop at www.riserverseshop.com
Once the book launches in June, we will also be adding the digital book to the shop.
March 3rd, 2024 update:
DuBois Supercon was a great time and we're really hoping to go back again!
Very much looking forward to the Pittsburgh Comic Book Show on May 19th and 3 Rivers Comicon in June!
Some fun things to keep in mind and look forward to:

We are planning to do campaigns on Kickstarter.
As of February 2024, we do have an active campaign running until March 14th.
The Fools' Gambit: Part One, the first 100 pages of The Fools' Gambit, will be officially releasing in June 2024!
Our first anthology book - Riserverse Comics Presents: New Machines - will tentatively be out in 2025 or 2026.
Our tentative release date for The Fools' Gambit: Part Two is 2025, though we might have to push it to 2026. There will also be a Part Three in 2026 or 2027. There may be a Part Four, but that will depend on how large the book ends up being.
There are a lot of variables to consider with production times, prices, and shipping. All of it depends on how our current plan goes and is subject to change afterwards if we realize something else works better.
We do have a Teespring store, but have rendered it inactive due to their increasing prices. We may reopen it in the future.
In the meantime, we do have t-shirts, patches, and buttons available at live events. (There are even sometimes Flag plushies available that were handmade by Hali.)
We have also opened a store at www.riserverseshop.com that will have our books and any other merch we sell.
Don't you worry about the Risers, my friends; this whole universe was built with them as the cornerstone.
They're coming back in Riserverse Comics' second arc - tentatively called the Rise Arc - and will also feature in some Riserverse Tales stories.
