Helm Book 1: Harbinger cover

It is an age of STEAMWORKS & SORCERY, MAGICK & MACHINERY, RANCOR & REVOLUTION.

HELM is an Eisner-nominated comic series set in an ancient fantasy world that has undergone an industrial revolution in the past 300 years. Racism and riots run rampant, "magick-makers" are mercilessly hunted, the elves have all but been eradicated, and rumors of rebellion stir amongst the half-breeds and downtrodden peoples of the Commonwealth.

Pursued by the merciless LEGION, the mysterious witch LUNA LUMERE seeks out ELDRICK SPELLSONG, JR., a college dropout who unknowingly holds the key to unlocking an age-old secret. Together, along with a sundry gang of adventurers, villains, and scoundrels, they will traverse the dark and dangerous world of HELM, in search of the legendary BASTARD KING, and rouse him from his slumber.

"It's a great fantasy story with genuine stakes forthe characters, and room for comedy. It somewhat reminds me both in tone andvisually to classic Don Bluth animated films." (SmashPages)

"There's a lot to be said for the world buildingthat's going on. ...there's a very deliberate attempt at individualizing notjust the characters but all the locations, all the artifacts that they pick up,all of their gear... I think that adds a lot to not only the backgroundcharacter development and story, but also the overall world-building." (TheComics Alternative)
