Tony Barbell and Teddy "The Pole" Tadeusz



Ah yes, Tony and Tadeusz.

Dare I say the greatest duo to walk the civilized plane?

Well, no, I wouldn't. Because all they can manage to do as a team is infuriate each other. Actually, Tony does most of the pissing off. Tadeusz has a bit of a condition, where he snaps everytime Tony opens his big mouth, and says something absurd. Krieg insists that Tadeusz look after Tony like a brother, keep him out of trouble.

Teddy "The Pole" Tadeusz is the muscle behind Krieg's operation. A skilled classical guitarist, a former jr. olympic gymnast in Poland, and a certified master of the capoeira and Jeet Kune Do martial arts. Sometimes it's hard to tell he's master of anything at all. His temper makes sure of it.

Tony Barbell. A child, really. He has no real fighting skills, and refuses to touch anything related to a gun, despite his chosen career path. The man just doesn't get it. Or does he? No one knows. Especially Tadeusz, he thinks Tony is just another liability. But underneath that massive, childlike thing called a man, is what Krieg would call a genius. Perhaps Krieg knows something Tadeusz does not.

Despite the obvious differences between the two, they can't seem to stop running into Tony's old buddy Jack Herrera. It's too bad really. Because once Jack meets up with KVK and the Captain. Tony and Tadeusz will be in for a bigger fight than they could have anticipated.

What will break first. The scale beneath Tony's feet, or the fleeting glimpse of Tadeusz's sanity?

Time will tell.

Krieg (Spoons) and Ramon Nudile




Here, we have Krieg, and Ramon Nudile. Appearance wise, it would seem they are polar opposites. The choice in career paths tells a different story.


Krieg dwells in the underbelly of New York City. Well, he lives in a massive penthouse. But figuratively speaking, he "directs" what you would call, the criminal world. As one of the four original members of KVK's team. Kreig, known as spoons to old team, returned to the states and put his skills to use, making money any way he could, severing his connection with the military. His hard work may have paid off...Until now. When the ghost of christmas past pays him a visit, everything he worked so hard to build, will be changed forever.


Ramon Nudile. Mayor of NYC. As crooked as they come. Nudile relies on Krieg to handle some of the "less desirable" jobs. He is what you would call a milquetoast, neurotic, spineless weasel. Nudile doesn't like it when things get messy. He's been riding the sweet train of embezzlement for years, thanks to Krieg. So when he finds the F.B.I. and the Candyman knocking on his door, his neat little world begins to crumble.

KVK

The man himself. This is the official character profile for KVK. The picture of health. I will be putting illustrations of other characters as they come. Also the vid should be up soon. Let me know what you think of them!

And remember... Cloudy days do call for tanning beds

The Down and Out Detective

Meet Jack Herrera.

A detective, just kicked off the force for making an illegal drug bust on Tony Barbell (One of Krieg's men), finds himself getting wrapped up in something bigger than he ever imagined...

Just after Jack gets canned, his former partner (Mac Williams), finds that the F.B.I. has been peeping it's head into the local precincts. Apparently, KVK's random acts of violence have been drawing attention. Mac also learns, that the government is bringing in a specialist, someone that knows KVK from way back when. Perhaps even made him who he is today.

Jack is unaware of his connection to KVK, but will soon realize, that his life has a direct link to the mad man leaving cryptic messages on the city walls.

I will post a video soon. A short collection of drawings and music compiled by myself, and my partner in crime, Kevin Miles Walker, that will introduce our new friend KVK.

Soon. A hard rain will fall...

Who is KVK?

KVK is the creation of myself and Kevin Miles Walker. Mr. Walker is the illustrator of KVK's world, and I am the musician that shapes the sound. Together we have created an alternate universe in which the Vietnam War was not lost, but in fact won, because of the presence of a single man.

That man is KVK.

The story of KVK takes place many years after Vietnam, when KVK and his old Nam "buddies" are back in the real world. Interactions (typically not so pleasant) between KVK's old military mates occur as they all seem to find themselves pulled into the misadventures of KVK's city life.

Bad cops, disgruntled war veterans, and a man with nothing to lose, constantly on the brink of psychosis.

Stay tuned as KVK evolves.
