Today Jon Lock begins his Kickstarter campaign to bring us The Book of Life which collects volume 1, 2 & 3 of his impressive Afterlife Inc. creation……and having seen the first copy of it at last months London Super Comic Con…..it’s fair to say it’s well worth it.
I’ve been lucky enough to pick up each volume of the book so far and enjoy the world that Jon’s created but here’s what he has to say about this recent move to bring us a collected edition:
“Jon Lock here, writer and creator of AFTERLIFE INC.
AFTERLIFE INC. is the tale of con-artist Jack Fortune, who, following his untimely demise, discovers an afterlife in chaos and decides to take over and run it like a business.
Over the last three years I’ve been publishing the on-going adventures of Jack and Co. as they attempt to modernise the Great Beyond. Now, for the first time, I’m collecting volumes 1-3 of AFTERLIFE INC. in one luxury hardback edition, the Book of Life.
At 376 full-colour pages, the Book of Life charts the entire AFTERLIFE INC. story to date along with 70 pages of special features, including pin-ups, character profiles, behind-the-scenes material, a guide to the afterlife and even an exclusive never-before-seen AFTERLIFE INC. tale.
The Book of Life will be available to pre-order through Kickstarter on the 1st April 2014. While the Book will eventually retail at £40, backers can take advantage of a Kickstarter-only price of £35. There’s also the chance to secure a copy for the early bird price of just £30! These super-reduced copies are limited, however, so be sure to get in early to avoid disappointment.
For all the Book of Life news as it happens, be sure to join the official mailing list. You’ll also be notified the moment the Kickstarter page goes live. No spam guaranteed!
Thanks for your time, everyone. The Book of Life is a major landmark for AFTERLIFE INC. I look forward to being able to share it with you.
Jon Lock”

A worthy addition to anyone’s collection and the finished hardback book is just stunning.
