This week marks ONE YEAR of The Lost Boys of the U-Boat Bremen! On Wednesday, July 7th, 2014, we launched the first three pages, and one year later, we’re 56 pages in without missing a single Wednesday!

Steve and Ken have been killing it on the art and lettering duties this entire time, and it’s been a complete thrill to see the book come to life in such beautiful, terrifying fashion every week. My hat is off to artist Steve Beach, letterer Ken Bruzenak, and to you the readers who have made The Lost Boys of the U-Boat Bremen such a success. 

Now check out this week’s page!

Wednesday means webcomics! Really creepy ones about nazis trapped on u-boats with unspeakable lil’ beasties, many of said nazis with sinister backstories of their own that go back years and years…

I digress. The Lost Boys of the U-Boat Bremen. The best horror comic on the internet. Read my story, even if its only to give yourself the opportunity to lap up the beautiful pencils and inks of Steve Beach.

[phillipkjohnson]

Wednesday means a new page of The Lost Boys of the U-Boat Bremen! Art by Steve Beach, letters by Ken Bruzenak. We’re starting to move away from the journal now into some action sequences that our boy wouldn’t have had time to write about.

Steve was born to tell horror stories. I love how our book is looking. More violence next week!

[phillipkjohnson]

Wednesday, and Chapter 2 of The Lost Boys of the U-Boat Bremen concludes this week! Written by me, art by the beautifully disturbed Steve Beach, letters by mad curmudgeon Ken Bruzenak. You’ve been patient (mostly), and we’re finally getting some answers out to you lovely people.

Got some catching up to do. I’ve been on tour for quite a while, a lot of hotels had sub-par internet, and although new pages of The Lost Boys of the U-Boat Bremen were still going up on phillipkennedyjohnson.com every Wednesday without fail, I didn’t put them all on tumblr.

So, if you get all your Bremen goodness here and not at phillipkennedyjohnson.com, here’s the next page. Thanks, and KEEP READING! This page begins a kick-ass sequence with some of Steve Beach’s best work AND the biggest reveal of the entire series.
