Ernie Carothers, best known across the internet as Blerd Without Fear! <\/a>is taking his YouTube storytelling talents to GlobalComix <\/a>with a brand-new supernatural noir series Hart Of Darkness <\/em>dropping December 10th, and Issue #1 is already shaping up to be a must-read for fans of urban fantasy, grit, and rich Southern mythmaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In this world, the things that go bump in the night aren\u2019t urban legends or shadowy secrets they\u2019re actually running Memphis. Vampires, demons, and creatures pulled straight from the dark corners of folklore live openly in the city, held in check only by a fragile set of supernatural laws known as the Accords. Those rules are the thin line between order and utter chaos, and one man stands at the center of that balance: Kellan Hart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kellan is the last living member of a family famous for monster hunters and demon slayers, but instead of carrying on the tradition, he\u2019s carved his own path. He\u2019s a fixer, a negotiator, and now the newly minted rules keeper responsible for maintaining peace among the supernatural. His job? Make sure the monsters behave and if they don\u2019t, make sure they understand exactly why the rules exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Issue #1 wastes no time establishing what\u2019s at stake. As Kellan begins his rounds, checking in on the power players that make up Memphis\u2019 supernatural hierarchy, a chilling crisis begins to take shape. Children are disappearing, and the evidence hints at a vampire bold (or foolish) enough to violate the Accords. Kidnapping innocents is a line no one is allowed to cross, and Kellan knows that if he doesn\u2019t find the culprit fast, the entire city could erupt into violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The debut issue promises a grounded, character-driven mystery wrapped in sharp dialogue, Southern gothic atmosphere, and the kind of worldbuilding Carothers\u2019 fans have come to love. It\u2019s a story steeped in tension and moral complexity, positioning Kellan as an unlikely guardian trying to keep a city of monsters from tearing itself and the human world apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For readers craving a supernatural thriller with heart, humor, and a distinctly Memphis flavor, this series is definitely one to read. Keep an eye out for Issue #1 when it arrives on GlobalComix December 10th, and stay tuned because if this opening chapter is any indication, Kellan Hart\u2019s journey is just getting started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
