Ice
cream truck driver Ilyia Zjarsky's life was forever changed when he
unlocked the spirit force of the mythical Apama creature. When he
witnesses first hand the troubles inflicted on Cleveland by a gang of
pipe-ripping, property-destroying scofflaws the hunt is on! With
apologies to the Sugar Hill Gang, this one's called "Scrapper's
Delight!"

Dejadme que os presente a un personaje que va a patear las calles de Cleveland en solo dos meses. ¡Saludad a NIKKI ST CLAIR también conocida como TAP DANCE KILLER! El mundo de Apama no volverá a ser el mismo.
I want to introduce you to a character who's hitting the streets of Cleveland in just two months. Say hello to NIKKI ST CLAIR also known as the TAP DANCE KILLER! The world of Apama will never be the same.
Our campaign roared past its $7000 goal yesterday. Thank you all so very much for joining the Apama Nation, and helping this wild and ferocious journey go ever deeper into the realms of the undiscovered.
We've got stretch goals coming soon that will add pages of content to the book, so please continue to share the campaign, and tag friends on social media that you think may be interested.
Here's my hot off the drawing board finished inks for the cover of Apama 10!
Apama The Undiscovered Animal Volume 2is more than 160 pages, and is packed with six—YEAH SIX!—complete issues of the Mane-Man’s never-before-seen adventures! We decided to debut this set like a Netflix series — all at once, and Kickstarter backers get it first!
The award winning comic book, which originally was a spinoff of the indie film Hero Tomorrow, is currently in development as a feature film of its own (which will make it a spinoff of a spinoff,) and now, in the volume 2 collection, an actual horror show musical is thrown into the mix!
Wait, WHAT?!
You won’t believe your ears when you meet Apama’s newest nemesis, the Tap Dance Killer!
This campaign which is literally belting at gunpoint, also includes a Volume 1 option for those who choose to show up fashionably late to the party.
'What Hero Tomorrow Comics is doing is a grand transmedia experiment unlike anything seen from comic book publishers before—incorporating elements of arthouse film, musical theater, and an offbeat superhero series into an enthralling artistic landscape that can be sampled and enjoyed as individual projects or seen as an inter-connected tapestry. In short, f@#%ing brilliant.'
—Chris Hixson, President, Incite Creative
We need your help to make it all happen. Please watch our campaign video and share with as many friends, enemies, and complete strangers as possible. We'll make sure to deliver the goods with the quirky action and bizarre adventure you’ve come to expect fromApama and his ever-growing rogues gallery and supporting cast.
Thank you so much for joining the ApamaNationand supporting Volume 1. We feel like we've reached new creative heights, and can't wait to get these next twisted chapters into your hands.

Our Kickstarter Campaign to fund the Apama 160+ page Hardcover Collection has been very successful. The printing costs are covered and that's HUGE! A mega-thanks to everyone who has already contributed.
THE CAMPAIGN IS NOT OVER.
We still need help to keep the series thriving. It costs over $200 to produce a single page in this series. Every new dollar raised goes towards adding new stretch reward pinups to this Apama Hardcover Collection, while providing resources to continue the series into its teens.
For as little as $12 you can experience the story that Comics Bulletincalled, 'Insane, brilliant and quite wonderful indeed.'
We hope you enjoy a sneak peek at a brand new image. This Homage to Action Comics #1 pinup will be included in the hardcover as a stretch reward when we reach $11,500. (>_<)
