The comic follows the story of Thadius, an ex-General of a private army, and starts some time after the fall of the House of Vansaar, a noble house that opposed King Conans claim to the throne of Acquilonia. With the House destroyed and its armies disbanded, Thadius is forced to walk alone...
The comic is a serious and relatively dark tale (with hopefully some tongue in cheek moments) and tries to be a mix of the real world that Robert E. Howard created in the dark comic format akin to Sin City or 2000AD comics. Over time the story will merge from being about Thadius' journey and merge into the story of our guild; The Hep-Kab Bandits (under the umberella of the House of Vansaar).
The comic itself is made in Adobe Photoshop and is a combination of screenshot manipulation (eg. to do Thadius climbing out of the bath I to take a seperate shot of the bath, then a picture of Thadius jumping and cutting and pasting him into the scene) and using photoshop effects for adding blur effects, blood, etc.
