Whenever writer Doug Wagner and artist Daniel Hillyard team up, fans can look forward to macabre, madcap, fiercely independent comics where serial killers, cultists, and fashion designers run amok. They’re re-uniting to kick off Clover Press’ The Fourth Leaf, a new line of creator-owned comics and graphic novels with their brand-new graphic novel, I Love Apocalyptic Zombie Misfits! The hilarious and horrifying supernatural thriller will be available as a deluxe hardcover. Fans can support the project on Kickstarter now.
I Love Apocalyptic Zombie Misfits begins when a nerdy pacifist finds himself resurrected in a vat of holy motor oil and trapped inside the hulking body of a supernatural slasher and forced to protect a psychic kid from the forces of Heaven, Hell, and everything in between. It’s a lot to process, but at least he’s got a Halloween mask and a squad of homicidal chickens!
What’s that about a card game? We have the exclusive reveal of the card game launching as part of the crowdfunding project.
The game is simple, your goal is the get rid of all of your cards, but the murder chickens have other plans. You’ll attack your opponents, steal their cards, reverse the game play, skip turns, and more chaos, all the while the chaos meter grows!
MURDER CHICKENS: THE CARD GAME
The chickens have gone completely insane.
In Murder Chickens, your goal is simple: be the first player to get rid of all your cards.
Unfortunately, the chickens have other plans.
Attack your opponents. Steal their cards. Reverse the direction of play. Skip turns. Swap entire hands. And whatever you do, DON’T LET THE CHAOS METER REACH 10.
Because that’s when things get really bad.
At Chaos Level 3, attacks get stronger. At 6, you can start playing two cards at once. At 9, every attack targets EVERYONE. And at 10?
GOD HAS ABANDONED THE COOP.
Everyone throws away their hand and draws five new cards.
But that’s not all. You’ve got Chainsaw Chickens, Rabid Hens, Egg Bursts, Feather Storms, Apocalypse Hens, The Rooster King, and the ultimate act of chicken-based destruction: TOTAL COOP FAILURE.
Easy to learn. Fast to play. Completely unpredictable.
And if you’re brave enough to play Apocalypse Mode, you’re racing toward 666 points. Land on EXACTLY 666 and you don’t just win…
You become the GOD OF THE CHICKEN APOCALYPSE.
Gather your flock. Start the apocalypse.
