Bringing The Story to Life: Becstar

Mad Cave Studios has collaborated with four amazingly talented cosplayers to bring the characters from Becstar to life.

See how experienced cosplayers, Morgan, Kirstin, Kate, and Brooke, create author Joe Corallo, and artist Lorenzo Colangeli’s characters with side by sides of their final looks next to the illustrated characters Sally, Anyssa, Becstar, and Paprika!

Dive deeper into the creative process of cosplay with Kirstin, as she walks you through how she utilizes cell shading and her 3D printer to create Anyssa’s look, and the infamous creation gauntlet!

“If you're looking for a spacefaring sci-fi adventure with loads of humor and an immediately compelling mythology, make this your week to catch up on Becstar” - Matthew Jackson

“Becstar is in the top 10 for indie comics we’ve been anticipating this year!” - Theo Kogod

“Becstar is a highly enjoyable sci-fi story with some superpowers thrown in for good measure. The creative team has rendered an interesting world well worth exploring” - David Brooke

“As I read this 1st issue of BECSTAR, the first thought I had was number one, the art was very unique and quite cyber punky…(is that even a word?). Doesn’t matter, because I like it.” - Martin

“With the element of sci-fi blended with ancient magics this really has so much that I love in one spot.” - Katherine Kleffner

Synopsis: Becstar is a star hopping mercenary-gone-full time-gambler light years away from earth. Leaving her old life behind with the help of her magical luck dagger and her fan-turned-regret filled-friend Sally Soolin, Becstar ekes out a living under the nefarious Shadow Syndicate’s radar. But when a mysterious girl appears with grim news and an urgent quest where the fate of the universe hangs in the balance, Becstar has no choice but to join… and regret it immediately.

Becstar Vol.1 is in previews now, and can be purchased at madcavestudios.com, Comixology, Drive-thru comics, or your local comic book shop; hitting shelves November 17th, 2021.

FROM THE TEAM:
“Becstar was an opportunity for me to have fun writing the kind of fantastical sci-fi stories I personally love while also telling a deeper story about losing the people important to your life who defined you and having to build yourself back up again. I’m grateful to have been given this opportunity and I hope my enthusiasm shines through.” – Joe Corallo, Writer

“As a young emerging artist, it seemed as though the stars aligned when Mad Cave Studios found me. Working on Becstar has been such an amazing experience, and each day I find myself identifying more and more with the characters. This wouldn’t have been such a great experience if it wasn’t for our amazing team. Joe and Chris have gone above and beyond in making sure I feel at home, which has made all the difference. I look forward to continuing my career with this team and showing everyone the amazing adventures of Becstar, Sally, and Paprika!” – Lorenzo Colangeli, Artist
