What Tears Their Lives Apart - Will Bring Their Souls Together!
The Rift™ tells the tale of three ordinary humans who, like us, go through the same motions of everyday life. These three strangers are forced together to confront things that they neither believe nor understand. The Rift™ is a book that delivers characters that you will care about, thoughtful dialogue, a sense of mystery and wonderment.

The Rift™ #6 All New cover Unveiled!
A year ago Italian-based artist Antonio Bifulco was working with us on a film adaptation when sadly the project's financing partner fell through. We've kept in touch and have since met face-to-face during this year's New York Comic Con. Since Antonio was a solid professional and his artwork was just too good to pass up we decided to give him a shot at final cover to The Rift series! So here it is along with a sneak peek at the entire process from concepts to pencils to the final piece. Enjoy!
