“WE DON’T KILL SPIDER IS A VERY PERSONAL PROJECT FOR ME AND IT TOOK ABOUT THREE YEARS TO DEVELOP. IT’S BEEN A FEW YEARS WORKING SOLO ON A BOOK AND I WANTED TO DO ALL THE ARTWORK AND WRITING MYSELF. AT ITS ROOT IT’S A TRUE CRIME STORY WITH SUPERNATURAL ELEMENTS. THIS TOUCHES ON MY LOVE OF THE NOIRE CRIME DRAMAS, SERIAL KILLER DOCUMENTARIES, NORCMANCERS, AND BATTLE AXES TO THE SKULL.” JOSEPH SCHMALKE
