I'm reading a Creator-Owned Comic Every Day for a Month! | The Passenger of U-977 @Michael

Uploaded October 2025 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago

The Passenger of the U-977 is based on the real case of the German U-boat of the same name arriving in Mar del Plata, Argentina, after WWII ended in 1945. Its crew had sailed without surfacing for 66 days, and that fact is the trigger for the premise of this novel of horror and fantasy by Rodolfo Santullo and Carlos Barocelli.

This video introduces the unique comic book series Horace H. Hoover, focusing on its protagonist who sports a vacuum on his head. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/horace-h-hoover/horace-h-hoover-4 The series, written and illustrated by Fabrizio Aiello, and currently funding on Kickstarter, blends pulp, occult, and adventure themes, making it a distinctive addition to any **book collection** and a must-see for every **comic collector**. Spooky Occult Adventures of a Paranormal Detective! Horace H. Hoover #4 The next issue in the exciting occult supernatural pulp adventure mini-series! Welcome to the world(s) of Horace H. Hoover — paranormal detective! Jump into the pulp-occult adventure filled with ghosts, demons, cults, and even deadly butlers! This five-issue limited series is the jumping-off point for a brand-new and unique world of esoteric knowledge, quirky characters, twisting mysteries, and more. The sole vision of Fabrizio Aiello brings all things weird fiction, occult, and pulp together into a never-before-seen experience. Issue #4 in this series is 100% complete! The writing, pencils, inks, colors, and lettering are finished, and proofs are already being printed. Issues #1–3 have already been published and will go through another round of printing and available as AdOns. While wearing something that looks suspiciously like a vacuum cleaner on his head, H.H. Hoover is pulled into a dangerous and epic adventure to save a man he once knew from an eternal fate worse than death. What begins with a young girl’s haunting will take Hoover across different universes, underground evil lairs, janitor’s closets, and the maze of a mysterious giant! In this limited mini-series, multiple stories are woven throughout all five issues. In Issue #4, we find the thrilling conclusion to the Smoke Man mystery! This full-color, standard-sized comic is 38 pages in total. Each issue is printed on thicker paper stock with a matte-finish cover. The colors are vibrant, a throwback to the ’70s and ’80s style of art, color, and storytelling (with a modern spin). The Man Behind the Vacuum That would be me, Fabrizio Aiello — the writer, artist, and publisher of H.H. Hoover. The story of H.H. Hoover goes back to 2017, beginning with a 3D sculpture that evolved into sketches and finally a published book in 2021. After the first two issues, I decided to self-publish. With such a unique concept, having total creative control — as well as managing distribution — felt like the best approach for readers. Issue #3 was published in 2024, and Issue #5 is already in the works. I’ve been creating art for decades as a freelance 3D artist and illustrator. I also have a YouTube channel where I stream live art sessions and chat about comics and creativity in general.
