## Resource

On this episode of the USDN Podcast, we’re joined by Kevin Davis, creator of Skinshifter Volume 1 , an indie horror comic that explores identity, fear, and survival through a supernatural lens. We dive into the origins of the project, the creation of The Jackel Bunny—a soul-hunting entity sent by the Prince of Hell—and how Skinshifter builds a unique horror experience rooted in psychological tension and high-stakes storytelling. Kevin also shares insight into his creative process, working with artist Daya Negron, and what it takes to bring a creator-owned comic to life through Kickstarter. If you’re interested in indie comics, horror storytelling, and the journey of independent creators, this episode delivers a deep look into building a world from the ground up. 🔗 LINKS Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kevisyde/skinshifter-volume-1 Website: https://www.kevisyde.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamkevindavisofficial TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@iamkevindavisceo YouTube: https://youtube.com/@kevisyde 📺 WATCH MORE INDIE COMICS INTERVIEWS https://www.youtube.com/@USDN_Podcast 💼 BUSINESS / MEDIA INQUIRIES thechairman@usdnpodcast.com 📦 COLLECTOR TIP OF THE WEEK (BCW) Protect your comic book collection with BCW Supplies 👉 https://www.bcwsupplies.com/?acc=usdn Use code USDN for 10% off Affiliate Disclosure: USDN may earn a small commission if you use our affiliate link or code.
