Jak, Jaqks Jam-Juxtahowl

Gulf Coast Cosmos Comicbook Co.

Gulf Coast Cosmos Comicbook Co.

Jak Jaqks Jam is a world where every character wears a mask. You get one at a very young age and slowly but surely, it becomes your face. You'll never take it off, it will just change and evolve with you. Loqko, Eqko and Pukka who represent the Body, Mind, and Spirit come together to help those fighting the curses of their masks to escape the negative loops of life constructed by their demons. Whether that be by showing them different ways and identities they can be, or by helping them fight their demons. And if they have to, even fighting Daymares. ~. There's a voice on the wind and it's faint, but if you listen it kinda sounds like....."Keep Howling"?
