Here it is, folks! Our first major announcement for the upcoming second release from Hero Works Publishing, Incredible Tales featuring The Legacy of Captain Bottle Works!!!

We enlisted local Bottle Works artist Kyle Reidmiller to create his own version of Captain Bottle Works in his hyper-realistic oil-painted style, and the result is our first variant cover announcement, and it just so happens to coincide with PRIDE month!

This variant cover will only be available during the crowdfunding phase, with very limited copies being made available.

Kyle Reidmiller, MFA, is an award-winning artist whose figurative work, centered in his experiences as a q***r millennial, has won him juror’s choice awards at museums and galleries, scholarships at several colleges, and honorariums at several research symposiums. Kyle utilized his incredible oil painting skills to bring his version of Captain Bottle Works to life for Incredible Tales!

Just scan the QR code pictured to sign up for the pre-launch to stay in the know on the upcoming campaign launch! Our next announcement will be coming soon and will be followed by the campaign launch in just a few weeks!
