A serial killer systematically slaughters three people. And although
forensic artist/private detective Chace "Chrusher" Kristoph has been
tracking the psychopath, a mysterious psychic detective named Neeja
Sakra alerts him that he may have unwittingly become the target of the
killer he seeks. Part one in the series that will form a Graphic Novel.
This is the Mature Audience/Uncensored edition of the book (A censored
version is also available).
A serial killer has been systematically slaughtering people all over the
world. And although forensic artist/private detective Chace "Chrusher"
Kristoph has been tracking the psychopath for over a decade, he may have
unwittingly become a target. All the while haunted by a beautiful woman
from his past. A globe-spanning thriller about crime, love, hatred, and
revenge. This Graphic Novel is being debuted in serialized comic book
format before released as a book. This is the Rated-R edition of the
book.
Introduction to the Three Volumes of ChrusherComix
Welcome. Introducing the cover to the new
"Chrusher: End Cycle" Graphic
Novel, which I've plotted (and set-up in the prior volumes) for over a decade and never had the time or means to
produce until now. Thanks to ComicGenesis and self-publishers, it can
finally be accomplished. If you would please vote
for me, then I'll give you an incentive gift: an alternate version of
this cover (and/or a preview of the newest page): It takes
seconds.:
ChrusherComix is a comic book series
separated into three volumes. Although they are interrelated, they are
absolutely not interdependent. What that means is that although this
graphic novel is designed to be read from this page onward, it actually has a
back-story
hundreds and hundreds of finished pages and dozens of related storylines of this graphic novel
that one can go back and read if they so chose to. I suggest that the average visitor
new to this book should start with this new graphic novel (which has
been created specifically for a large audience), but they can also start
at sampling any of the below sections (which was initially created for
my friends & family, but can also be enjoyed by a wide audience if they
had the patience to read through the whole story arcs). The first two volumes I consider "Classic Crusher Comics"
which is a 1,200 page, knee-slappin' hilarious archive with dramatic and
adventurous interludes.
Enjoy them all, and support me via votes, reviews, and published comics
when they are available!
VOLUME ONE (1988-1992)
Teenage Juvenile Comedy Comics:
(I have no idea why 99.9999999% of my
visitors always see this and/or the 1st 1988 or 1994 pages and then
leave. Please use your brain and pick from any of the selections, in
particular, the comedy of
The Welphy Family and
The
Lunaticials. You'll need it
to follow my ingenious work.)
Volume Oneis essentially a 500+ page comedy that
contains the introductions of many of the main characters. It was
poorly written and illustrated by me when I was fourteen though nineteen years
old (before the internet or webcomics were even known of) and is essentially my practice, though it does contain a
character-driven storyline based on friends and classmates that I
parodied in it. Which is why, in some regards, I call it my high school sketchbook with a storyline, as I was graded very well on it in art classes and won some high school newspaper awards for the special newspaper editions of this comic. Since most of this volume features caricatures of people I know in fictional and semi-fictional circumstances and inside jokes a plenty, my friends think it's the greatest comic ever written, and the wider audience of internet readers don't get it and leave. Hence, it is only provided online only for archival purposes, as
most visitors have shown little interest in most of it other than people interested in watching an
amateur teenage cartoonist's artwork steadily improve or learning the
main characters. Parts of it are highly hysterical, but
0.000001% of visitors have never read more than 1% of it because they
leave after the silly and poorly drawn opening episodes or like perverted
furry fantasy video game sprite copycat comics waaayyyy too much. Still, the third volume will draw on parts of these earlier volumes, so they are not totally without merit.
Volume Twowas written and illustrated during my early twenties. Like its
predecessor, was only written and illustrated for my artistic practice
and the amusement of my friends, and is still not well-suited for a
wider audience because it features caricatures of people that I or my friends know, mixed in with fiction and inside jokes. It continues the story introduced in the first volume,
but with superior artwork, and additional characters. Though it is
largely a comedy, I placed dramatic elements within it to advance the
story of the forthcoming third volume between the humor, but then, to
simply amuse my best friends, gave way completely to little more than
juvenile humor as the volume concluded. Again, there are some extremely
comedic moments, but 0.000001% of visitors
have never read more than 1% of it because they leave after reading the opening episode
(which has decent art, but a story hard to follow unless you've read all
of Volume One or like perverse furry fantasy video game sprite copycat comics
waaayyyy too much), and them middle-to-end of this volume features a precursor to the odd-humored cartoons of the late 1990s - as to my horror, some of the things I thought of were also done similarly in cartoons afterwards. Again, the third volume will draw from certain minor storylines within this second volume, so again, it does have some value to put online.
Volume Three is a departure from the largely comedic initial volumes
of the book. It is a new and dramatic story meant to stand completely
on its own as an original graphic novel, but yet draw from certain
elements threaded within the first two volumes. One will not need to read the first
two volumes to understand or enjoy the third, as anything important will be noted, though a new reader may
venture back and visit some of the characters and their origins if they so
choose to. It is a drama that I have plotted for well over a decade, and I am
debuting it on this website for a worldwide audience as soon as I get a
break in work, which wasn't until August 2007 (I work in a
Greenhouse, and race/co-own/maintain a website for my go-karts,
ok? Busiest time of the year for me and I had more work to do up there this year than previous years). Please respect
this description and I hope that you read and enjoy! And don't read small parts of the first two volumes and leave. You'll miss what I designed for you, the new viewer, to enjoy!.

Welcome to
the ChrusherComix Universe. This website archives two eras of
the comic: (1)
"Classic Crusher Comics" was produced between 1988-1999 as an
unpublished "sketchbook with a storyline" amateur comic book
while the author was in school and for several years thereafter. In 2005, it was reborn,
reprinted entirely for the world wide web as a webcomic. (2) Now, a new graphic novel debuted
in 2007-up with new pages updated regularly. The new book and
the old comics are interrelated,
although not interdependent, so one can enjoy one, the other, or
both. Rule of thumb: The
new
graphic novel is a graphic thriller built off the dramatic
scenarios left off in the
old
archival comics, which were largely a character-driven
comedy with a dramatic back-story carefully sewn in under
everybody's noses. Enjoy any
and all using this dropdown!
