WITCH DOCTOR: MAL PRACTICE #1 (of 6) is on sale now!

November 29th, 2012

And the critics like it!

Newsarama gives it a 10 out of 10! “On all fronts, Witch Doctor: Mal Practice #1 is a step up for a series that was already hitting all the right notes. This is some can’t-miss comic reading right here. Bring on issue #2.”

Bloody Disgusting gives it 4.5 out of 5 skulls! “this is an excellent first issue with very few, if any, flaws. The only thing holding it back is that this is the first issue, and so there isn’t a lot of weight to the proceedings. Still, that’s an extraordinarily minor complaint. This is definitely one to pick up.”

Ain’t It Cool News gave it their thumbs up. “Those looking for a truly unique take on horror will most likely already know about WITCH DOCTOR. This new miniseries, MAL PRACTICE looks to be another winner. And if you don’t know about this comic yet, now you do, so check it out.”

IGN says, “As a continuation of their strong start, Seifert and Ketner deliver a worthwhile new chapter with Witch Doctor: Mal Practice #1.”

Broken Frontier says, “In reviews of Witch Doctor’s first volume, I gushed over the potential of both the property and its creators. With Mal Practice #1, Seifert and Ketner turn in another brilliant masterpiece of occult medical comedy-drama that only validates my initial prognosis. Genre-bending, hilarious, and often down-right disturbing, the (Witch) Doctor is definitely in, just in time for the holidays.”

Comics Should Be Good gives it 8 out of 10 stars. “Witch Doctor was one of the best comics of last year, so it’s great that Seifert and Ketner are back with a new mini-series.”

Signed Witch Doctor issues now available online

November 10th, 2012

People have been asking us for years how to get signed Witch Doctor comics, without going to a convention. The bad news is, there’s still no good solution to get comics signed by Lukas except going to an event that he’s at.

But the good news is, Brandon’s now selling Witch Doctor and the other comics he writes online, and each one has the option of being signed by him!

Check out Brandon’s online store.

  • About Witch Doctor

    It's a sick world.

    Literally -- the universe is an organism, and the creatures of myth and folklore are invading parasites, preying on the native species and disrupting the ordered systems of the world.

    It's a sick world, and Dr. Vincent Morrow's here to treat it. Headhunted into an exciting new career in the black arts after his excommunication from the medical community, Morrow serves the world with both hands -- one in magic, one in medicine -- as earth's protector. Earth's Witch Doctor.

    Witch Doctor is a medical horror comic written by Brandon Seifert and illustrated by Lukas Ketner.

  • Testimonials

      "Mental.” — Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan, The Authority, Black Summer)

      "One guy I'm real excited about is Lukas Ketner... [Witch Doctor is] a great book, and they [Seifert and Ketner] have a lot of talent.” - Scott Allie, Dark Horse Senior Mangaging Editor

      "Witch Doctor is awesome. It's House, M.D. by way of H.P. Lovecraft. Witty, gross, gorgeously drawn and just plain fun." - Brett Warnock, publisher, Top Shelf

      "Any true horror fan should keep their eyes on Seifert and Ketner." - Mike Dringenberg (co-creator of The Sandman)

      "There should be more horror comics like Witch Doctor. It's got the gross outs, and the cool characters, but it has ideas, too. It's a horror comic where they got a good artist and then thought, 'Oh man, what if we got a good writer too?' And that puts them a big leg up." - Joey Comeau, A Softer World

      "Lukas Ketner [is] a fast rising star in the world of illustration." - Publishers Weekly's The Beat

      "I was instantly reminded of a childhood spent reading classic horror comics like Creepy and Eerie... [Seifert and Ketner's] real-world medical/zoological approach is really intriguing!" — Vampire bat biologist Bill Schutt (Dark Banquet: Blood and the Curious Lives of Blood-Feeding Creatures)

      "The kind of comics we need more of... If you're not reading Witch Doctor, I have no recourse but to seriously question your taste in comics." - Rantz Hoseley, creator of Vix!, Displaced Petsons and editor of Comic Book Tattoo
