If you’ve been reading my reviews lately, you’ve probably noticed that I’ve been catching up on the indie comic book series Otherkin.
Steeped in magical realism and urban fantasy, Otherkin tells the story of Alex, a shapeshifter who faces a major threat to his existence and unwittingly draws a human librarian named Law into the dangerous battle.
With a decompressed style that lets readers soak up visual cues from Mike Mignola-esque art, Otherkin has been a breath of fresh air so far. Its fascinating and unpredictable plot really keeps readers on their toes.

Issue 5 is being prepped for crowdfunding on Kickstarter, with a preview page and three covers released.
You can see the pages for this issue here, but be careful not to share too much, because so much of what’s special about Otherkin lies in discovering it for yourself.
However, issue 5 looks like we’ll get some insight into Alex’s past.

Variant covers are also shown above. The Kickstarter campaign for Otherkin #5 launches on Thursday, April 2nd, and you can sign up for the pre-launch here.
In the meantime, check out my spoiler-free review of the first four issues of Otherkin at this link.
