Whatever Happened To… September Mourning From Top Cow Comics?
Created by Top Cow founder/artist Marc Silvestri and musician/singer Emily Lazar of the band September Mourning, M Lazar, was created as a unique character who lived in multiple worlds and media: a rock band, social media, and now a comic book series.
September Mourning has no past that she can remember, only a strange and shadowy present filled with the voices of the dead. Turned into a unique hybrid by the former Reaper of the lonely, injured and abused, September Mourning is the only human/reaper to exist.
Back in 2011, David Hine was writing a new comic book series to be drawn by Michael Broussard and published by Top Cow as well as series of webisodes that would have broadcast by MTV. December 2011 was the intended release date.
It didn't happen.
But in 2015 the September Mourning Top Cow comic was successfully crowd funded on Kickstarter, to be written by Mariah McCourt of Emily and the Strangers. And drawn by Sumeyye Kesgin, of Top Cow's Rise of the Magi series. And that happened. The first two issues of the comic were recently collected to coincide with a September Mourning tour.
And now David Hine is returning to write the next two issues of the comic. And this time the cross-media narrative continues in the stage shows and September Mourning videos:
September Mourning has now signed with Riveting Entertainment who represent Lady Gaga, Chris Brown, Mary J. Blige, and Lil Wayne. So expect to hear plenty more announcements soon on more cross-media developments for the September Mourning story…
