Bionic Buzz® got to interview writer Samuel Haine and artist John Schrad about their new kickstarter for A KAIJU CHRISTMAS.
It is a children’s book for All Ages based on The Night Before Christmas, but instead of a Santa flying down to drop off presents a giant monster snowman appears through an extra-dimensional portal to ruin the holidays! And it’s up to a group of brave children to save Christmas and the world!
Fans of Power Rangers, Godzilla, Pacific Rim, King Kong, and Voltron will love the action-packed story.And everyone who loves Christmas will adore the amazing painted art style that harkens back to the holidays of old but with a sci-fi twist!
