The Oxymoron Hardcover Graphic Novel!

As of late Tyler James and Comix Tribe have put together an anthology based on the villain from the book The Red Ten the Oxymoron (in case you forgot I made up a pin up for them, which became a variant cover for the book using this character which you can see below).
I was asked to illustrate the story "Nearly Perfect" written by Yannick Morin (who also did Comix Tribe's Points of Impact). The story is about the Oxymoron kidnapping the finalists of the Miss Swanstown Beauty pageant and it's up to Red and the Crimson Kid to save them! It's good story and gets mighty gruesome. For example, for some of the scenes I was looking at the movie Dead Alive for inspiration, and if you haven't seen that I highly suggest you don't eat while you watch it. Here are the first couple of pages to wet your beak...
Along with this there will hopefully be some variant covers (the kickstarter needs to get up to $14,000 and as of this writing they are currently at $13,205)! One will have each artist represented on the cover. The cover will have the Oxymoron standing in front of a broken mirror and each shard will have an individual illustration. Here is yours truly...
Can't go wrong with a chainsaw. Along with this is my own Variant cover for the book! Comix Tribe is currently promoting it by saying "WARNING: This Alex Cormack Variant Will Give You Nightmares!" Or Frightmares, but that's another story. Anyways here is the cover...
Here it is as it would be on the book itself...
So Donate some money and pick up this book! I'll leave you with Comix Tribe's promotional video for the project (where my work can be seen throughout!) Alex
