Ari Gross updates ‘Upkeep’ on Kickstarter

Welcome to the True North Country Comics Podcast — dedicated to celebrate Canadian comic book and graphic novel creators and supporters.

On this episode, I chat with Ari Gross about new comic book Upkeep #2 on Kickstarter.

Ari Gross resides in Toronto, Ontario, where he creates comics, plays piano, raises his kids, writes code, and is completely ignored by his cat, Kirby. Ari’s comics include the sci-fi one-shot Awakening, as well as shorts featured in comic anthologies, including “Don’t Go Below” from Fairytales from Mars, “Chosen” from Scott Snyder Presents: Tales from the Cloakroom, “I’m with the Bard” from Might, Magic & Monster-In-Laws and most recently his ongoing series Wardens. His latest project continues the Upkeep series with issue #2 and he’s joined by collaborators with artist Keder LeBeau, colourist Mariam Yasser, letterer Rob Jones and editor Aubrey Lyn Jeppson.

Upkeep #2 continues the thrilling tale set in Toronto, Ontario. The story goes like this: “It’s year two of Adam and Yvonne’s life in Garrison Manor, the magical mansion that grants its owners anything they desire! Join them as they confront a chilling new terror: trying to find affordable childcare! Also, murder.”
