Brides of Crime is a cross-media intellectual property being imagined into existence by a plethora of creative types and friends.
The Big Idea.
My initial aim is to make a focus for some creative output over a range of media such as drawing up concepts, storyboards, comics, short animations, scripts and maybe even a game integrating the efforts of the team.
The project will not be a single handed effort, but more a marriage of skills and talents from artists from all sorts of artistic backgrounds. Hopefully the combined efforts will fill the project to the brim and each person will help to put icing on this multi-tiered cake.

Features.
It is in early brainstorm stages, so to get the ball rolling here are the key features that have been thought up:
The Brides of Crime are vigilantes and justice dealers who have been jilted in the past so seek to better the world. They are in the peripheral vision of the local police enforcers, known as the Mothers In Law.
The head of operations communicates through intercoms, text messages and occasionally carrier pigeon and is known as The Vicar.
The Neverbride is the head of operations on the ground and is an old spinster with a cruel sense of fun. Always being the bridesmaid and never the bride, she shares the desire to right the world, and possibly find someone to tie the knot of righteousness with.
Travelling in a Bridal Carriage in the form of a Rolls Royce complete with ribbon and cans, the team travel from crime scene to crime scene occasionally stopping off at doomed weddings.
Supported by their lower ranks, The Bridesmaids and sometimes utilising the skills of the elite Flower Girls, the Brides yell their own war cries as they fight.
They have several main weapons, which each has mastered and honed to suit their fighting style. These include: Something Borrowed, Something New Something Old, Something Blue, Bouquets of Justice and the devastating Frisbee-like Garterangs.
Watch This Space.
These are early stages and will be elaborated on with more characters and scenarios being created for the Brides of Crime to interact with and ultimately overcome. These might include the Missing Grooms, Doctor Osc:The Sound Doctor (overpriced DJ who didn't refund the reception that never was) and many more soon to be ideas!
