This is troublesome, right? Tilting the tables against a horror creator like me just because I’m a horror creator? Sure feels like censorship when they say any print facility can arbitrarily decide not to print the book/art… I’m not even into nsfw stuff with ladies all nude for no reason. Thoughts?

COVER H REVEAL From the depths rises this wicked water monster. With as many stomachs as it has arms, only its worshipers know the number of victims needed to satisfy its eternal hunger. Dare you to swim with the serpent! Cover H was created by Iosefa Jacobovici.

A giant green painted sea serpent with multiple arms and spikes along its neck looks down at a floating person in the water, as well as two others nearby in the body of water. On the edge of the shoreline stand several robed and cloaked figures in front of dark woods.

You can pick up this cover, or a print of this cover without the trade dress, when you support the Kickstarter. Your support early means greater momentum on our road to find this anthology and help to make comic-making dreams come true!

A black background with shadowy silhouettes and glowing eyes stare at a lone knight clad in blood red armor in the foreground. He sits on a bright yellowish horse, who looks to be a member of the undead. The knight is missing his legs and the horse is choking out spittle. Across the top is a bar that says the title of the book CHK PRESENTS AHA! A HORROR ANTHOLOGY #1
