Kindly covered corpses

For the new edition we are needed a new cover. The first edition cover of Kindly corpses were too dark – did not reflect the true spirit of this graphic novel. So it was necessary to change the cover. I have done many covers for various books… But when I need to do covers for my own book, it can be much more complicated job. I did not want to fall into the usual trap – to smash my head that it must be kicking ass cover! I did something very simple and graphically powerful – enough to draw the attention of potential readers, I hope...
Kindly Corpses front cover / Second edition

Then I applied the cover design on 3d model book, and I must admit I liked how they look. Much better than the first edition!

Kindly Corpses / 3D model book

Here are the first ideas for the front cover, but I did not like because there are too many stories in it.

The first version of the cover / sketch drawing / pen and ink

Kindly corpses are completed now. Next phase - printing!
There are many interesting book projects ahead of me. Stay online!
Less talk, more work!

  1. pozdrav!
    odlično izgleda naslovnica!
    ugodno sam iznenađen reizdanjem. već skoro godinu dana tražim primjerak ljubaznih leševa, no bez sreće. ova vijest me skroz veseli!
    nego, tko će biti izdavač novog izdanja i kada se može očekivati distribucija po ostatku Balkana?

  2. Pozdrav Stribore,
    i hvala na interesovanju! Ovo izdajemo uz pomoć Komika(Vuk Marković), malog novosadskog izdavača. Trudićemo se da izdanje bude dostupno putem striparnica širom Balkana, a i pristupačno po ceni... Premijerno bi trebalo da se pojavi krajem septembra na Salonu stripa u Beogradu.
    Još jednom veliki pozdrav i svako dobro!
