What Happens When You Mix World War II, Zombies, Aliens, and Badass Women?
Pure comic book gold, that's what.
Meet Quinn, Penny, and Talli - three Allied spies who went from infiltrating Nazis to becoming undead super-soldiers. When a top-secret mission in Antarctica goes sideways (thanks, ancient alien technology), our girls get sacrificed, resurrected, and enhanced with alien bio-tech. Now they're caught between saving zombie society and stopping an intergalactic invasion.
Think Charlies Angels meets Dawn of the Dead with a dash of Independence Day, riding the coat tails of Saving Private Ryan.
Why We Made This
Look, we're geeks. Ideas don't come out of thin air - they come from all the awesome media we've absorbed over the years. We wanted to create something that didn't take itself too seriously, but still brought the bloody cake.
​
Ever heard of Die Glocke "The Bell" (Nazi attempts at building UFOS!) or New Swabia? (Their secret claim of land in Antarctica), and it doesn't stop there! These were actual Nazi projects that sound straight out of science fiction. Let's be real, the Nazis did some pretty nefarious sh*t which is why they are the perfect villains. I mean, secret experiments on reanimating dead nazi soldiers, mysterious anti-gravity technology, and a slew of other classified operations that make you go "wait, THAT was real?"
Perfect fuel for a killer story.
​
Add some undead vixens, planet-changing discoveries, thawed dinosaurs, and completely plausible scenarios wrapped in dark comedy - we couldn't NOT make this comic.
Sure, we don't take ourselves too seriously, but we take storytelling seriously. And trust us, it plays out wonderfully.
​
This is the brainchild of Brandon Ellison and killer artist, Jasreet Singh. Together we've poured countless hours (and probably a few alien abduction scenarios worth of time) into crafting a series that spans 5 action-packed issues.
Dive into the creative chaos as we build this world from the ground up - it's messier than a zombie orgy but twice as satisfying. From character concepts to rough pages that'll finally make a priest need therapy, watch our twisted vision take shape through sketches, layouts, and pure creative madness.
Rough Pages
Stay tuned, we'll be updating as our progress continues!
The World We Built
1942: A Nazi expedition uncovers a crashed alien ship buried deep beneath Antarctic ice - a vessel that's been sleeping since the age of dinosaurs, entombed when the meteor that ended their reign buried it under millions of tons of ice and rock. After figuring out how to crack it open, they accidentally awaken something ancient and hungry. 1943: The alien stirs to life and a zombie apocalypse begins... but with a twist nobody saw coming.
The Twist: These zombies keep their personalities intact. Your friendly neighborhood mailman still delivers mail (he's incredibly dedicated to his route), dead accountants are still worried about tax season, and that cranky old lady from down the street? Still cranky, just technically deceased now.
Now Earth faces an identity crisis. Society must rebuild around the uncomfortable reality that death no longer means what it used to. Zombie families demand equal rights while the living struggle with employment discrimination - can you fire someone for being technically dead? Healthcare systems collapse under the weight of patients who don't technically need to breathe. Religious institutions crumble as resurrection becomes mundane rather than miraculous.
​
Meanwhile, Dr. Hans Grauber, a high-ranking Nazi scientist enhanced with alien DNA, works alongside the injured alien to rebuild their broken network. With the unwitting aid of the three vixens (who don't realize their alien enhancements are being tracked and exploited), they're desperately trying to convert Earth's thinking dead back into evil alien zombie hybrids, hoping to restore the original alien protocol that would transform the planet into a harvested wasteland ready for colonization.
​
Three undead women with alien enhancements have become humanity's unlikely champions, navigating a world where the line between monster and victim has become impossibly blurred. And yes, there are dinosaurs roaming around because when ancient alien technology gets involved, prehistoric chaos is just part of the package.
​
What emerges is a world that uses the fantastic to examine the painfully real - a story that weaponizes zombies, aliens, and World War II to dissect modern anxieties about otherness, identity, and what it truly means to be human. It's pulp fiction with purpose, where the blood and chaos serve a deeper examination of how society treats those it deems different, and whether humanity's greatest enemy might just be humanity itself.
