UDON Comics, known for their Capcom adaptations, has begun the online serialization of Makeshift Miracle, a new, original graphic novel written by Jim Zub (Street Fighter Legends: Ibuki, Skullkickers) with artwork by newcomer Shun Hong Chan.  Two new pages will be posted up each week, at www.makeshiftmiracle.com. A deluxe printed graphic novel version will be published in 2012 by UDON Comics.

“There’s no shortage of comic readers,” says Erik Ko, UDON’s Chief of Operations, “The hard part has been getting great material into their hands so they can enjoy it and show all their friends. Putting our new original story online first breaks through the traditional barriers to entry. The content is there to win people over.”

Makeshift Miracle is the story of a young boy named Colby Reynolds who finds a place where dreams can come true, if he’s willing to pay the price.

“It’s a surreal coming of age story. Sandman by way of Stand By Me” says writer Jim Zub.

“It’s been ten years since I originally started Makeshift and I’ve learned so much about storytelling, pacing and dialogue since then. The chance to expand the story and delve deeper into ideas about dreams and desires – I can’t wait for a new generation of readers to dive in, no matter where they live.”
