Fresh from exhibiting at San Diego Comic Con, pop culture podcast network and media company Geekscape enters the comic book ring with their upcoming crowdfunding campaign for Paul London: Hero of the Prophecy #1, the first issue in a brand new fantasy comic book series!
Inspired by real-life professional wrestler, Paul London, Paul London: Hero of the Prophecy #1 is a 26-page pro-wrestling/sword and sorcery story written by Jonathan London and based on an idea by Jonathan and his brother Paul. The comic features art by Marcelo Sanchez with colors by Vittorio Astone and lettering by Micah Myers. It is produced by Geekscape’s Georg Kallert.
The story revolves around washed-up, real-life pro wrestler Paul London who, at the lowest point in his life, is magically transported across the universe to a distant planet of sword and sorcery. Once there, he is mistaken to be the Hero of The Prophecy, destined to free a kingdom from the rule of Ramzaar, an evil sorcerer. Ultimately, Paul must learn to use his pro-wrestling skills and false bravado to not only survive the strange, magical world and its ferocious inhabitants but also Ramzaar’s dark forces. Along the way, he befriends an owl-like wizard and a beautiful, sword-wielding warrior, all in the hopes of becoming a true hero.
