My Anthology Series: Stories from the Hill by Anthony Andujar Jr

         Hello everyone, I figured I'd make a separate post focused on the Anthology Comic series that I've been working on for the last year to present. I've made a couple of comics on this blog, but I wanted to focus on the universe of stories that I've been making that are more towards the content that I like to make and usually obsessed with.  Majority of these short stories that you see here are black and white comics, inspired by concepts that we see and hear about on a daily basis. From Large shadow government run corporations, to nightmares, cybernetic performance enhancement fighters, to man made weapons of mass destruction, to good intentions turned terrible tragedies. I've always enjoyed anthologies, and what they allow storytellers to do. Comics, films, and shows like The Animatrix, Batman:Gotham Knight, The Twilight Zone, Sandman, Love, Death and Robots, and stories similar to them in nature have always been full of great stories, all interspersed yet loosely connected in some form of way to their respective worlds. I always found that more interesting than making a long form series where I would get bored of making because it is too tied up in one concept.

  But there is something freeing about anthologies that give you the freedom of making stories that don't have to be tied up in one particular narrative, style or genre.  These stories, despite being fictional, are spread across time and space, taking inspiration from a lot of music that I listen to, headlines, and things that have always inspired, fascinated and terrified me. Whether its cyberpunk, mystery, horror, thriller, romance, I try to weave these genres into stories that loosely connect, creating stories as if they were historic events in it of itself. Life is stranger than fiction and the future is more closer than we tend to believe. Anyway, I plan on updating this post with more stories. Some are silent stories, and others a stories with narration and dialogue. I hope these stories can be fun, and thought provoking to some degree.

 So here are the stories, of when they were chronologically made. I'm hoping to physically publish these stories, as they will have some exclusive content, along with a digital PDF of all the collected stories in one volume, not seen here or on any of my social media's, with story notes, sketches etc. Anyhow, that is the main plan when I'm not working on other projects with collaborators.  So for the meantime, I hope you enjoy. Feel free to share these stories with friends.
