About

Littlelight Asylum, despite its unfortunate name, is just like any other orphanage in the woods, well except the fact that its little monsters really are little monsters. And out of the all the tiny terrors that call Littlelight home, there are three that manage to stand out the most.

Hollow, Eve and Lilith. A trio of otherworldly shorties with a real bad habit of getting themselves in all sorts of supernatural misadventures.

To give a short version, Littlelight Asylum #0 is a 38+ page one-shot comic about friends having fun and fighting baddies.

You can read a preview of the book below or right here.

Littlelight actually started off as a short comic I made with Esther (Artist) and Toben (Letterer) that was accepted into Alterna Comic's IF Anthology last year. I was really proud with how the short came out and had so much fun making the story with Esther and Toben that I really didn't want to see it just end with the short. So that's where the idea of doing a one-shot comic for these dorks came in.

I had Halloween on the mind when I first started writing Littlelight, back when I almost named it Hollow N' Eve (Get it? Kinda sounds like Halloween Eve but its the names of the kids... I don't think I'm clever either). The story for this book is a rework of the original idea I had for the short, which was inspired by all the cartoon Halloween specials I loved watching as a kid (and still love to this day).

The goal for this kickstarter is to raise all the funds needed to finish up production on the rest of the book. The book is 38+ pages, and we've already got about 10 of those pages done and ready to go. So the majority of the funding will be for the other 28 pages that still need to be finished up.

What about the +? Along with the main story you'll also be getting the original 9 page short that started it all as a nice little bonus story. Now in color! Small preview below.

Esther Pimentel- Hi there! I'm a young illustrator, currently studying 3D Animation and Video games. I've been working this past year on some projects, such as Alterna's IF Anthology, Boundless, Death's End, The Committee and North Brother Island!

Toben Racicot- Toben came to the comic industry as a last resort after failing in the culinary world. His dream to open a poutine and waffle shop quickly ended during the Great Potato Famine of 2011 in Saskatchewan. His love of comics started as early as he can remember. Watching Spider-Man and reading Archie. As a writer, he tells his own stories but loves collaborating with other creators as a letterer and designer.

Julian Dominguez- Growing up in the unforgiving tundra of Houston, Texas has left me withered and frostbitten, so now I write comics to warm my soul (not sure how that works really) and hopefully make someone laugh and smile while doing it.

Got a website here!

Lil' preview of the colored version of the short, I'll be handling the colors on this.

These biographical pages were taken from the critically ignored bestiary "Creeps, Freaks and All Around Weirdos" written by our very own resident witch, Lilith.
