The Boston Metaphysical Society mini-series is a creator owned Steampunk Supernatural comic. The comic is written by Madeleine Holly-Rosing and has 4 out of 6 issues in print. There is currently a Kickstarter running to help her fund the 5th issue's art and print costs. Here's a description of the series:
"The year is 1895...An evil from a parallel dimension escaped and now roams the city of Boston. Faced with a new century and new steam technology, the social and political status quo is turned on its head. People are uncomfortable with change and, in fact, many people fear it. That fear and the violence which follows causes a psychic rift to puncture the veil of space and time allowing the entity known as "The Shifter" to escape. Feeding on the resentment and fear between the rich and poor, “The Shifter” triggers a rash of murders. Four of the greatest minds of the time have banded together to try and stop this malevolent entity. Known only as B.E.T.H., they are: Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, and Harry Houdini. THEY FAIL. Against their better judgment, they look to a man driven by revenge – SAMUEL HUNTER.
The Kickstarter for issue 5 ends on September 12, 2014, so be sure to support this wonderful project while you still can! At the very least, check out the Boston Metaphysical Society website for this Geekie Award nominated series! Let's show Madeleine our Steampunk Enthusiasts support her work!
