To go along with the online release of First Incision, here’s the text piece I did for the back of the print version.
I swear to God, all we wanted was a portfolio piece. Not a brain infection.
A portfolio piece is all Witch Doctor: First Incision was supposed to be for me and Lukas. […]
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: First Incision is a 16-page medical horror comic introducing the Witch Doctor universe, written by Brandon Seifert and illustrated by Lukas Ketner.
