Lone Star, Full Moon: Zack Quaintance + Anna Readman bring ‘Macabre Valley’ to Kickstarter

The campaign for the Texas werewolf grindhouse miniseries ends Oct. 15.

Zack Quaintance and Anna Readman, who worked together on last year’s Death of Comics Bookcase anthology, have teamed up for Macabre Valley, a “Texan werewolf grindhouse comic” that draws from Quaintance’s days as a reporter on the Texas.Mexico border.

“Right after college, I spent five years as a newspaper reporter in South Texas, a wild place filled with news and legends,” said Quaintance. “I was in way over my head. It didn’t go well, and it’s always felt like a bit of a horror story to me—so now we’re taking my real life experiences and crafting a fantastical, monster-filled version of events.”

“By doing the comic through Kickstarter, we’ll be able to do the book our own way, with all the twists, gore, and gritty terror this story demands. It’s going to get bloody, y’all,” he said.
