Interview with Sovereign Wolf Creator Eddie Winkler

   I.C.U. caught up with creator Eddie Winkler to get the inside scoop on his project Sovereign Wolf: Clan of Destiny - Now funding on IndieGogo

​Congratulations on the success of the Sovereign Wolf campaign! For those who are unfamiliar, what is Sovereign Wolf?
   Sovereign Wolf "himself" is our hero, John Sovereign, who is secretly a werewolf.
SOVEREIGN WOLF: Clan Destiny is the first Graphic Novel to be released by my comic book company, Dose Of Action Comics Group Inc., or D.O.A. Comics for short.
   Sovereign Wolf will be our Flagship title and Clan Destiny is the first of a 2-part story arc that sets up the Universe.

The main character John Sovereign will turn into a werewolf. What kinds of abilities will his transformation give him?
  As a werewolf, John will have some natural enhancements to his strength, durability and stamina. There are some other things to be revealed down the road but you'll just have to keep up to find out.

What kind of adversaries will John face?
   As far as adversaries go, they will mostly come in the form of Hybrid Shapeshifters known as The Clans Of Tomorrow. They are five clans created by the Great Big Bad Guy, James Emerald. Being a huge Spider-Man fan, James Emerald is going to be my Norman Osborn type; only less friendly. Book 2 will showcase just how Bad these bad guys are.

The artwork looks phenomenal! Who is on the creative team and how did the team come together?
    The main story for SOVEREIGN WOLF: Clan Destiny is 50 pages of beautiful art by Lucas Meyer and amazing colors by Giuliano Peratelli. I found Lucas on Reddit in August of 2019 and a month later we were working together. The very first thing he did was the image for the Bad Moon Rising version of the book that can be found on INDIEGOGO. When I saw it, I immediately texted my brother and told him I found the perfect artist for my book. Lucas then asked who was going to color it and I didn't have anyone set at the time. He referred me to someone he worked with quite often and it turned out to be Giuliano.

   Now, every time I see a finished page, I worry that they will outgrow my little comic book company but I will have them as long as they want to work with me. They are amazing and deserve any and all of the success that I know is right around the corner for them.
As far as the rest of the book, everyone involved was awesome to work with and I could not be happier with the end results of their work. I can say that every backer of this book will be extremely happy with their purchase.

Sovereign Wolf is planned as the first in a series and with the success of the campaign, I assume we can look forward to more in the future. What are the plans for the future of Sovereign Wolf?
   No matter what Clan Destiny does in the campaign, it is only the first installment of the Sovereign Wolf franchise. We are about 20 or so pages into book 2 in terms of actual content. Outlines for the series are finished up to book 6, and there are single paragraph synopsis for the next 6 books after that. All in all, Sovereign Wolf is my baby and will be our (D.O.A. Comics) flagbearer for years to come.

Sovereign Wolf is the first book from D.O.A. Comics. What should we expect from Dose Of Action Comics going forward?
  That being said, Sovereign Wolf won't be the only title being released by D.O.A. Comics. I am currently having 10-12 of my old characters redesigned to have a fresh new look before they hit the pages of our futuristic superhero title. Those designs are being worked on by the super talented Renzo Rodriguez of Ya Boi Zach's Pandemic and Impossible Stars. I was super excited to have him agree to this work and if I am fortunate enough, Renzo might be doing some actual work for the project...but I don't want to jinx that...lol. That project will be revealed next year shortly after we launch Sovereign Wolf book 2.
   And with that I'll say thank you for this opportunity and to make sure to check out SOVEREIGN WOLF: Clan Destiny on INDIEGOGO and get in on the ground floor of this great Brand of comics I'll be trying to bring to you all.
