Who is Behind the madness?

Kevin Manklow

Kevin Manklow is an art director and illustrator by trade, and aspiring comic book creator in his spare time.

An indie-comic veteran, Kevin is once again flexing his creator-owned-IP muscles and has successfully Kickstarted The Bestiary -  Feral: A field guide to the New World.

Additional shorts and foundation stories from the Feral universe may find their way to Webtoons.

Mike Connell

Mike Connell is a storyteller, known primarily for his expertise in developing content strategies for brands and businesses, but he is also widely-acclaimed for his ability to talk about his plans to write comic books and epic fantasy novels.

In that vein, Mike (along with Kevin), has — at long last — launched a self-published, creator-owned comic project (the aforementioned The Bestiary -  Feral: A field guide to the New World).

Frank Avila

Frank Avila is a tabletop role-playing game designer and founder of Red Owl Creative, specializing in the adaptation of narrative-driven worlds into survival-focused RPG systems. His work explores how myth, belief, and cultural memory can be translated into meaningful mechanical consequences at the table.

With over 40 years of experience running tabletop role-playing games and fostering local gaming communities, Frank brings a deep understanding of play culture, system design, and collaborative storytelling to every project he undertakes.

As system designer and consultant for Feral: Historical Fantasy RPG, Frank helped adapt the world of the Feral comics into a Shadowdark-based rules framework, where belief, land, and blood carry real power, and where the dangers of the frontier are shaped as much by myth as by steel.
