Headhunter Chief

Sky Shadows medicine man and senior oracle Signreader knows what troubles the tribe – its growing belief that the Headhunters, a feral and chaotic enemy, are organizing themselves for an unknown purpose.

Throughout the first volume of Tribes: The Dog Years, the new color comic book series from SoulCraftComics.com, readers will notice that the Headhunters are not only using camouflage, but using it skillfully enough to gather vital information about the Sky Shadows. They will surely threaten not only the survival of the Sky Shadow tribe, but also the future of humanity, for it is the Sky Shadows that hold Dr. Irving Adams prisoner, and Dr. Adams is perhaps the only man on earth who understands the mysterious plague that shortens the human lifespan to 21 years well enough to concoct a cure.

If the Headhunters are organizing themselves, what is their purpose?  Is it possible the Headhunters know something about the Sky Shadows’ new quest?  Could they thwart Dr. Adams plans, and if so, are they doing it purposefully?

If the Headhunters are successful, none of these questions may ever be answered.

Rockjumper of the Sky Shadows

The tribe of Sundog, Fallingstar and Rockjumper is ruled by a Chief and two advisors: the Medicine Man and the First Warrior, in Tribes: The Dog Years, the new color graphic fiction/comic book series from Soulcraft Comics.

As the story opens, the reigning Chief, Deerslayer, is in failing health, and it will soon fall to Rockjumper to assume the leadership role of the Sky Shadows, a role he has observed as First Warrior and the leader of many hunting parties.

But there are doubts that the heir apparent to Deerslayer’s rule is ready for his responsibilities. Rockjumper seems to be very rigid in his adherence to the “Sky Shadow Way,” the central warrior code that holds the tribe together and forms the heroic myth by which hunters are trained and their success is measured.

These doubts are inflamed when Sundog begins to chafe at Rockjumper’s ruthlessness, and the stage is set for an eventual showdown between the voices of the future and those of the past.

Fallingstar’s Idealistic Fight

“I am not a mother yet. I want to fight.”

Fallingstar utters these words to justify participating in the defense of the Sky Shadows against an enemy attack.

It is Fallingstar who seizes upon Dr. Adams’ description of a future where kids can actually know their grandparents. His dream seed sprouts in her mind. And she decides to leave everything behind – her future husband, the Sky Shadows, everything – to try to forge a new future for herself.  Though she defies expectations of her role in the Sky Shadows tribe, she carries her maternal idealism to the battlefield to fight for the future of the entire human race.

Will she succeed?  Will her strength help humanity secure its future?

Find out in Tribes: The Dog Years, the new color comic book series from Soulcraft Comics.

Tribes: The Dog Years – Seattle of the future – circa 2130

The jagged shell of a technological society looms over a dilapidated landscape in the world of Tribes: The Dog Years, the new color comic book series from SoulCraft Comics.

Seattle and its environs have been particularly hard hit, as the combination of neglect and relentless inclemency have rendered a ghoulish cityscape where once stood one of the most beautiful urban areas in the world.

The questions that have not been answered are the most troubling. Rain and wind and even snow could not have pulverized the city’s buildings, yet there are no signs of what did it. Could a war have preceded the miseries of the Sky Shadows and others? If so, could that conflict still threaten Sundog and his comrades?

As dire as such danger might be, Sundog and Fallingstar cannot turn aside from their quest. An answer must be found to their affliction, or the human race may never be restored to its full stature. The buildings of these once mighty cities inspire our intrepid young hunter, Sundog. Though he may never live to see such wonders, his courage may yet lead his descendents to one day build new cities upon these ruins and return humanity to its old glory.

Tribes: The Dog Years, coming soon to Soulcraftcomics.com.
