Help Launch a Smiths-Inspired Comic Book Series!

​Comic book publisher and Morrissey fan Shawn Demumbrum is working on a Smiths-inspired comic book series, called Unite and Take Over: Comic Book Stories Inspired by The Smiths. He wrangled indie comics vets Christian Vilaire, Henry Barajas, Jeff Pina, Shelby Robertson, and others for 78 pages' worth of comic strips, asking them to go off on from one question: What story plays in your head when you listen to your favorite Smiths song? Demumbrum says the song acts as an inspiration, jumping off point, theme or mood for the story.   The project already has 13 scripts approved, and the book will have 74 pages of illustrated stories.  There's a Kickstarter site where you can help with the costs to print the book, license the print rights for lyrics use, purchase an ISBN barcode for the project, set to launch at  Tucson Comic-con in November.

Here are the songs turned into comics:
Death at One's Elbow - Glen Curren and Madame M

Rubber Ring - Dennmann  
Girlfriend in a Coma - JP Manzanares
