Scorn #1: Obsessed, the debut comic book of Septagon Studios, Inc., has been "Spotlighted" by Diamond Comic Distributors and is now available for re-orders.
To support this re-order offer, Septagon Studios has introduced a retailer support section on its website, providing an exclusive look behind the cover of Scorn #1 and other important details regarding the series, including distribution Information, preview pages, and testimonials.
With the first issue of Scorn due to arrive in stores this March, the book has continued to receive praise from industry professionals and comic-book-related websites, and Scorn has garnered critical acclaim in receiving nearly 35 positive reviews and still counting.
"Neundorf combines subtle abstract patterns with nourish angles to heavily coat the script in a gritty, chaotic atmosphere; a territory somewhere between Templesmith, McKean, and J. O?Barr. This is how the comic book format should be utilized more often. This kind of ingenuity is what a cutting edge medium like comics should be all about."
--Dan Schaffer (Creator, Dogwitch, Indigo Vertigo and Scribbler)
"Scorn epitomizes what independent publishing is all about."
--Gary Reed (writer, BAKER STREET)
"SCORN is sandpaper for your soul - an abstract sepia-toned, rust-colored, fever dream that grinds down your feelings and punches them in the face."
--David Gallaher (writer, HIGH MOON, winner of DC's Zuda competition)
"Reminiscent of Ashley Wood and Ben Templesmith . . . those like me who like moody, imaginative, and painterly styles will want to seek this one out."
--Scorn Issue One Reviewed by Ain?t it Cool News
"Scorn is certainly a gorgeous book, with art on par with the best from IDW and a story as classic as it is uniquely handled. Scorn is definitely a surprise, and a good one at that."
--Dave Baxter, (BrokenFrontier.com)
