I'm sort of new here still under 100 subs,
genres: survival horror or battle to the death (superheroes, dark fantasy)
video games like resident evil, castlevania, devil may cry, evil within, metal gear solid, dead space
but also fighting games like tekken, street fighter are inspirations (there are moments where the scenes play out like an fps game)
Films like underworld, evil dead, the thing and various zombie horror films, stranger things, dark superhero films
It started as a beat em up x survival horror video game idea that became easier to handle on my own as a comic.
It follows 3 heroes (two brothers and a former assassin) who gain the ability to each manipulate a state of matter (liquid, solid, gas) but are also carriers of a 'virus' that instantly mutates others into monstrous creatures. They unwillingly start an epidemic. The infected hordes aren't the real threat however, It's a handful of individuals locked in a game of 'Last One Standing', these individuals possess similar symptoms to the aforementioned 3 heroes, are out to kill other superhumans and have no shame infecting helpless people along the way.
Many of the superhumans' powers lend to the creepy, gritty tone of the story
eg. Evan (below) calcifies his saliva to make a variety of weapons, he is inspired by the rogue and light swordsman fighting class.
