Coming Soon: The October Girl, Chapter One... (UPDATED)

And here it is, my first project for Monkey Brain Comics... a 120-page graphic novel called "The October Girl", written and drawn by myself.  I'm serializing it in 10 page chapters, a new chapter each month.  Here's the blurb for the first 'issue' --

THE OCTOBER GIRL, Chapter One
Autumn Ackerman has always known she was a little different, but she has no idea just how different she really is. 18 years old and with no hope for a future beyond working behind the counter at her small town’s coffee shop, Autumn is about to discover that everything she thinks she knows about the world is wrong. The first chapter of a brand new dark fantasy story for teens and adults by critically acclaimed artist and writer Matthew Dow Smith (Doctor Who, Witchblade).

Chapter One goes on sale this Wednesday, July 4th now.  Only 99 cents, and only available through Comixology.
