DEATHBLADE is heading back to Kickstarter, and EA Brown isn’t returning quietly. | Comic Crusaders Podcast #754

The Skull Valley Comics creator joins Al Mega on the Comic Crusaders Podcast to discuss the next major expansion of the DEATHBLADE Universe, including DEATHBLADE: The Awakening #2 and #3 and the debut of BLOODWARS #1: A DEATHBLADE Saga.

The September 18, 2026 Kickstarter represents a significant jump from the property’s first crowdfunding campaign. Skull Valley’s promotional materials report more than 3,000 pre-launch followers for the new campaign, with an expanding creative roster working across the interconnected books.

During the conversation, Brown discusses what the team learned from the original launch, the pressures that arrive when an indie audience begins growing, how BLOODWARS opens another corner of the mythology and why Skull Valley is choosing to build outward rather than simply repeat what worked the first time.

The discussion also digs into creator ownership, crowdfunding, variant-cover culture, managing a growing team and the long-term ambitions behind a property Brown increasingly views as a universe rather than a single comic.

For readers looking for supernatural horror, military action, creator-owned storytelling and some serious indie-comics ambition, September 18 is the date to watch.
