Updating our previous story on the new Vault series SAINTED LOVE, the project’s Kickstarter campaign officially launched today and is already at 80% at the time this article was published! The story is written by Steve Orlando and drawn by cartoonist Giopata.

Per the KS campaign, the story revolves around Malcolm "Mac" Irina and John Wolf. Mac is the greatest inventor the world’s never heard of, and John, his lover, is the toughest fighter in the world of underground boxing. From the campaign:

Despite their love, they are forced to keep their relationship a secret due to fear of reprisals. When Irina's lab is raided by members of a shadowy organization known as The Pilgrims, the pair escapes through Irina's newest untested invention--a time machine. But where have they ended up?!

Can the two lost lovers find each other again in the confusing future? Will their relationship survive their evolving understanding of sexuality? Who are The Pilgrims? And did someone say bathhouses?

It's up to Irina and Wolf to protect queer history from those who would try to erase it. Ricochet through time with Irina and Wolf as they explore new eras, new friends, and some wild new positions in Steve Orlando and Giopota's gorgeous new creator-owned comic, SAINTED LOVE.
