comment |
Sullivan's Sluggers is a Horror Comic Book by Mark Andrew Smith.Casey Sullivan was once a baseball legend. But that all changed at the 1976 World Series, when a ball he caught dropped from his hand. Now, he's a jaded, washed-up Alcoholic whom his hometown despises, and coach to the Dragons.When his team gets invited to play a game in some small town, he takes it, expecting it to be just another game. However, at the seventh inning stretch, the sun goes down, and the team discovers that the invitation was a trap so he and his team could be eaten alive by the town's monstrous inhabitants.Now, the team needs to fight their way through a town of flesh-eating monsters and escape with their lives.The comic was funded on Kickstarter on June 16th, 2012. It was released on January 8th, 2013. |

Town with a Dark Secret |
| | Sullivan's Sluggers (Comic Book) / int_b02f996a |
comment |
Town with a Dark Secret: Malice, the town Casey and his team come to is one where the townspeople become flesh-eating monsters after sundown. This is because, many years ago the townsfolk killed a rich black man and his family by sealing them in their home, and burning it to the ground. They then lynched all but one black witness, and when the story got out, hosted a Kangaroo Court to escape from justice. The local preacher, angry at the townsfolk for their actions, condemned them. He then got lynched to death, and with his final breath, cursed the townsfolk to become monsters whenever the sun goes down. |
