Film action and Martial Arts icon Cynthia Rothrock is set to broaden the scope of her forthcoming movie, "Black Creek," by introducing an accompanying graphic novel through a crowd-funded IndieGoGo campaign at BlackCreekGraphicNovel.com.

Taking on the roles of producer, lead actor, and co-scriptwriter, Rothrock is eager to present this dark, western martial arts epic to audiences both in cinemas and as a graphic novel. The comic will adapt the film's plot, focusing on a formidable female gunslinger on a quest for vengeance against the merciless villain who decimated her family. Rothrock assures that the graphic novel will not only retell the movie's story but also surprise readers with new twists and deeper narrative layers.
