      It was annouced a few days ago that long time exclusive DC Comics artist Ethan Van Scriver would be leaving DC Comics at the expiration of his contract. EVS has worked on many of DC's premier titles including Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and several others.

     EVS now turns to his creator owned project Cberfrog: Bloodhoney. This 48 page graphic novel will be the first of four in the series centered around his 1993 creation Cyberfrog. His fans seem to be in his corner for this project as well. 
     On his twitter @ComicArtistPro Secrets he announced that his Indiegogo Crowdfunding campaign had surpassed the $200,000 range. At last check he had pledges of $210,383 with over 3,600 backers. With no plans to return to any of the big publishers and a willing audiance we can expect Cyberfrog to be around for a few more years at the least. 

     

      Though the book has been described as a one-shot it is also listed as a first of 4 in a series; in this book Cyberfrog comes out of hybernation to discover that Hornets have taken over the Earth and have enslaved man, using human skin to form their nest and even taking human blood to make their honey! It is up to Cyberfrog to save humanity. 

     With full funding coming in the first 20 minutes of his Indiegogo campaign, we can be sure to see Cyberfrog on store shelves in the near future.
