AND YET HE LIVES
Posts by Basileus Comic - (Currently on Kickstarter come take a peeeek)
I am unapologetically an appreciator of the absolute trash written by Ed Greenwood (pbuh), and recollect many passages awkwardly describing a tavern wench's heaving bosom, so I believe I can count myself an expert on traditional mantasy.
Perhaps the majority of an elderly person's fantasy literature (from the 80s and 90s). Having just come from an Indigo, I can assure you "mantasy" would definitely be a departure from what is currently the fantasy zeitgeist.
Kristiano, declaring his manifesto to a robot. More FATHER FRANK with Simon!
Also, this is a very cool page, of course.
I feel like a weirdo for lettering first, before inking. I just don't want to have to draw if I don't have to, its hard enough as it is.
Very exciting news from the Iberian Peninsula- a Spanish edition of my book “Habitat” is coming out!
LAST POST I promise. We end the KS around 225% which is well beyond my expectations, and I am very thankful to everyone who took an interest, both in buying something or spreading the word. I hope any new readers are entertained, and interested in the next book, which will be quite good I think.
The cover design is finished! Go check out the whole thing on the kickstarter, and then order a book while you are there. Why not?
ah to be a slippery fellow. Less than 24 hours remain, and we are 220 percent funded! Glory to the backers!
Pure torment is the remaining 98 percent.
The last print you can add to your order is, of course, this floatin frank robot number. Mein Gotte friends, we have eclipsed 10k, the power level is indeed in excess of 9000.
Zoomers will know only in legend, of the plastic 6 pack rings. 2 rings to the uncle late thanksgiving night, 2 to the boys reclined upon the lawn, 1 for a fellow in search of his might, and one last for me to darkly sip on.
hard to find reference of those plastic 6 pack holders, which is good for wildlife I suppose, demonstrating they have been largely supplanted by cardboard. I have cut many a 6 pack girdle into strips in my time, to save the turtles.
Wow nice one Ze. This would look great framed.
Kickstarter has changed to hours, so you know things are serious now. Here is another print you could potentially add to your order. Go cheeeccckkkk eerrrr oouuuttt!
A golem in a cage
The Queen of Wands holding a scepter with a cat at her side
The King of Pentacles with spidery legs
The King of Swords, bristling with weaponry.
The Castle Automatic is filled with golems who serve one of four courts: Swords, Cups, Pentacles, and Wands.
Each royal of the court was modeled by the dungeon's creator on a specific person from humanity's ancient past--a reference nobody living understands today.
Book 4 is where I finally fully separate the three main storylines into their own entries.
Patrick, Orlando and Marley each get a full stand-alone chapter and this is how I hope to continue going forward.
Choosing one of the three paths and telling a story.
Blazing toward the finish now, only three more days and I will stop shilling. This is another art print you can order along with your book, go check it out! *Jazz hands*
Thanks man!
😂
Wow! That rocks.
Fun fact: Basileus is the source of one of the quotes in The Castle Automatic. It is a good comic. It is a comic you should buy and a comic you should read.
I have added a number of bonus ART PRINTS which you can add to your book order, should you desire them. Go check it out on the updates page on the KS. This one I did in honour of the Kowloon walled city, many years ago.

Thank you!!
6 days left! Fly at once to the kickstarter and carry away a book.
I feel a most sincere gratitude toward those curious supporters of strange independent comics, either in pdf or physical format, or just in well wishing donations made along the way. That there is still demonstrable interest in such media, encourages future work. The FINAL WEEK BEGINS!
180 percent funded! Only a scant 7 days remain! Is that enough time to supplant the Bible as the world's best selling book? Probably not, but I like to dream big.
I am very pleased to report we have cracked 8k, which I believe puts us safely beyond the cost of printing, tax and fees! There are still YET more books to claim, if you dare, so if you have not TAKE A LOOK AT THAT KICKSTARTER.
