Ahead of the launch of its website on Tuesday, Fried Comics has provided ROBOT 6 with the exclusive first look at Ben Templesmith's cover for Deadskins!, an upcoming digital-first serialized graphic novel characterized by the publisher as a "zombie Western comedy."

Created and written by Clay Adams and Alexandre O. Philippe, director of the acclaimed documentary The People Vs. George Lucas and the upcoming Doc of the Dead, and illustrated by Leila Del Duca, Deadskins! follows "a Harvard-educated dandy and his blind drunk companion," who are all that stand between the West and "a zombie Indian apocalypse": "This is the true story of Custer's Last Stand ... whatever they taught you in school is bullshit." It will feature a second cover by Afro Samurai writer/artist Takashi Okazaki.

Fried Comics will debut two digital-first series next week, with a third to be announced in 2014. Free content will be available each weekday, providing visitors with a look at the process from initial sketch to finished comics page. Full issues will be available for download for 99 cents per issue; print editions will be available "in the near future."
