Breath of Bones #1 Out Today!
Hello! Today the legend of the Golem comes alive in Breath of Bones: A Tale of the Golem #1. I’m very proud of this one. Dave Wachter’s art is stunning.
Getting to work with my buddy Matt Santoro is always great. This is just one of those projects where everything fell into place. I hope you can check it out and I hope like it!
Reviews have been coming in great too. Here's a selction of some of them:
"Breath of Bones looks to be one of the best comics I will read this year. Based on this first issue, it's a complicated, heartwarming and heart-wrenching story with a depth of feeling I don't see in a lot of comics. It's beautiful." - Comics Bulletin
"Breath of Bones #1 is off to a strong start. If you want a title that seems intent on exploring the line between hero and monster, then go pick this up." - Unleash the Fanboy
"Everything Steve Niles touches is magic. Breath of Bones is a wonderful and emotional story that puts a little twist on events we already know. Niles and company have this scheduled for three issues, and I'm definitely coming along for the ride. 5/5" - Comic Book Therapy
"Steve Niles is known for his work in writing horror, and this story promises to include the monstrous golem of Jewish lore; yet, it is clear there is a much deeper thread these storytellers look to weave into this comic. The only disappointing thing about this comic is the month readers will have to wait for the second issue to arrive." - Newsarama
"In closing, Breath of Bones: A Tale of the Golem #1 is a very gorgeous comic book, both in the art and in the story telling. The content is such that is often mishandled, but with Niles putting such focus on the characters, the awesomeness of the ensuing Golem uprising will be secondary. But with Niles at the helm we can also expect some great action and suspenseful moments to come. Great dialogue, great content, great art, all makes more a simply wonderful comic." - Read Comic Books
"Breath of Bones: A Tale of the Golem is going to be overlooked and shame on you for it. This is a horror story with tonnes of heart, topped with gorgeous black and white artwork. A sleeper hit in every sense of the word." - Comics the Gathering
"As if the Comic Books Gods have smiled down upon us, the gorgeous artwork of Dave Watcher (2012 Russ Manning Award Nominee) is paired with the script honed by Niles to make this a truly jaw-dropping launch. Even if historical horror isn’t your usual thing, it’s worth picking up Breath of Bones: A Tale of the Golem for the opportunity to study Watcher’s remarkable talent of capturing both action and emotion using bold imagery with no visual clutter." - Geeks of Doom
AND... we still have some Golem Totems left in the store. They are flying fast!
