For fans of THE TICK… CARLO SCOLARI: Attorney at Law Now Live on Kickstarter!
A law comic parody that puts a brand new spin on superhero tropes…
What happens when a money-loving lawyer convinces lab-accident supervillains to file personal injury suits instead? Find out in the new quirky comedy series Carlo Scolari: Attorney at Law #1, now live on Kickstarter!
Written by Kevin Doyle (The Ninja Scouts, Doctor Destructica), with art by Eisner Award nominee Mauricio Caballero (Helm) and Lina Sanchez, colors by Fernando Caballero and letters by Ringo Award nominee Justin Birch (Nottingham, House of Slaughter).
Terrible accidents keep happening at the Speculative Technologies Laboratory (Spec Tech). The victims of these accidents gain destructive powers and/or become horribly disfigured. As a result, they lash out in shock and rage until stopped by local hero, Excelsius, with local reporter Carmen Ortiz covering the story. Then an enterprising lawyer named Carlo Scolari convinces the latest accident victim, Ted Wainright, to file a personal injury suit against Spec Tech rather than go on the usual rampage of revenge.
“I’ve always been amused by how science labs are depicted in comic books,” said Kevin Doyle. “I’ve worked in labs for my entire professional career, so when I see a lab accident in a comic book I can’t help noticing all these poor safety practices and OSHA violations that led up to it. That led to the image of a Saul Goodman-esque personal injury lawyer making a tv commercial about these lab accidents, and the rest of the story developed from there. I really appreciate platforms like Kickstarter, because they give you the freedom to develop projects with niche, off beat premises like mine that may not fit more conventional publishers.”
“A lawyer that defends the supervillians, you just got to give it a moment to realize the gigantic potential of funny moments and intricate plots that can come out of this,” said Mauricio Caballero. “I absolutely want to see this materialize!”
“I would love for this project to come to life,” said Lina Sanchez. “The characters are charismatic and I would like everyone to support their future adventures!”
“I never thought a lawyer comic would be so much fun!” said Fernando Caballero. “A well conducted story, great art, and fun is assured!”
