PR EVIE W E DITION

Meet Eva, Victoria, and Oliviathree witches with smarts,

attitude, and, of course, bitchin magick-casting abilities!
Ever since I watched the cult classic film The Craft in 1996
twenty years ago, in factIve been fascinated with the idea
of sorceresses and witchcraft lore. And so Im thrilled to
have the opportunity to edit WITCHES TRINE!
WITCHES TRINE is a fresh take on a familiar genre that
combines a supernatural vibe with modern kick-ass action.
It revolves around three complex female protagonists
whose narrative spans generations. Well experience these
witches dealing with life in 19th century England while
tackling a new set of perils in modern day L.A. Their growth
over the course of the story goes from being selfish to selfless
as they realize the importance of saving others and their
place in the universe.
So without further ado, here is the preview for WITCHES
TRINE #1!

Monika, my wife, is deeply immersed in the world of holistic healing and nutrition. One day, she told me about an
herbalist shop she visited in the Perth Hills and gave a
captivating description of what she had seen:
The shop was small and part of the owners house, located on
a large property surrounded by woodlands. The house had
an incredible amount of exotic herbs, teas, and all kinds of
plant products. Most of which the owner produced himself.
I formed a mental image of this fascinating place and
couldnt help but wonder:
Who is this person growing these exotic plants with such
dedication? And who might his customers be?
Maybe they are witches
I had initially intended WITCHES TRINE to be a feature
filmbut when I finished the screenplay, I felt that it would
make one hell of a graphic novel! The only problem was,
though I had always been a comic book fan, I had never
made one before. So to get some help, I did what you do in
this Internet age: I Googled freelance comic book editors.
That is how I found Valerie DOrazio, long-time editor and
a creator of indie comics herself. She saw the potential in
the project and agreed to guide me to something worth
printing. She helped me turn the screenplay into a comic
script, and we set out to put together a team of artists to
realize the vision.
We secured the services of the amazing John Howard to
pencil and ink the book; Teo Gonzalez, whose glorious
colors raise the artwork to another level; and Bram Meehan
to provide the smooth lettering that seamlessly blends with
the visuals.
The cover and pinups were provided by Joshua Chinsky,
and are sure to be future collectibles. Ditto for the variant
cover, used for this preview, by the talented Dennis Calero.
Frankly, I could never have dreamed of better collaborators.
Im amazed at the quality of the end productand now that
we are ready to show you what we have been working on, I
hope that you will enjoy reading our book as much as we
loved making it for you.
Kris Lippert, writer

WITCHES TRINE is the centuries-spanning story of

three immortal witches: Olivia, the Scholar; Eva, the
Healer; and Victoria, the Warrior. Their devotion to
the Dark Arts is only surpassed by their loyalty to
each other.
When they find themselves in the middle of a
sinister plot to raise the Antichrist, they will have
to use all their Craft and unique abilities to save
themselves and the world and not even death
can stand in their way!
