Jeff Carroll brings The Streetz series

 Hip Hop Comix N Flix created the Streetz series to reintroduce readers to the kind of bold, unconventional storytelling made famous by classics like Tales from the Crypt, Eerie, Creepy, and Mad Magazine—publications that challenged conventions, explored different genres, and entertained generations of readers.

The Streetz series was born out of Jeff Carroll’s desire to expand the scope of Black comics and storytelling. Feeling that the industry was oversaturated with superheroes and barbarians, Jeff often joked, “I’m not writing a Black Superman or Black Conan story.” Instead, he set out to create more opportunities for Black-centered science fiction, horror, crime, thrillers, comedy, and other unconventional stories that went beyond traditional comic-book formulas.

The series began with Sci-Fi Streetz, a novel collecting Jeff Carroll’s science-fiction stories. He followed it with Horror Streetz Volume 1, a collection of short horror comics billed as Hip Hop Horror Stories. Two more horror comics followed: Horror Streetz Summer and Horror Streetz Fall. The lineup later expanded with CyberFunk Streetz, Spoof Streetz, and HELLMONIC Streetz, each bringing its own unique flavor to the Streetz universe.

The series continues to grow with Grindhouse Streetz: HollaWeen, Jeff’s first Streetz one-shot. Upcoming projects include Space Streetz and another Grindhouse Streetz featuring the one-shot story Cannabis Man. In celebration of the 20th anniversary of his award-winning film Gold Digger Killer, Jeff is also planning one of his biggest Streetz projects yet: Crime Streetz, an anthology of crime stories featuring some of the top Black crime writers.

Looking beyond individual titles, Jeff plans to make the Streetz series an ambassador for his approach to comic-book storytelling through Tales for the Streetz, scheduled for release in October 2027. Designed to feel like a greatest-hits collection, this book will bring together some of the most talked-about stories from across the series, introducing readers to the creativity, diversity, and unexpected twists that define the Streetz experience.

Stories planned for Tales for the Streetz include “SlushieMan” from HELLMONIC Streetz, “Take My Organs Please” from Space Streetz, “The Ass Doctor” from CyberFunk Streetz, and possibly “Don’t Let Them Get in Your Head” from Horror Streetz Summer.

Through the Streetz series, Jeff Carroll and Hip Hop Comix N Flix continue to push beyond familiar formulas, blending genres, exploring new ideas, and creating stories that reflect a wider range of Black imagination and experience. The Streetz series isn’t about following the usual rules of comics—it’s about opening the door to stories readers don’t always get to see.

You Picked the Wrong Planet and Battle Space Hollaverse board game.

This is my thirteeth Kickstarter campaign and there are very few risks in supporting my projects. I wait until the comic book has been fully illustrated and edited before I launch a campaign. All of my past projects have been successes. ALL rewards were delivered on time and the budget was met. I need these funds to cover printing and marketing costs. 

You Picked the Wrong Planet is the definitive edition of Jeff Carroll's epic Planet Alkebulan saga, collecting all four graphic novels together with the exclusive companion novelette Here Come the YaHoos. A sweeping Sword and Soul adventure, the series combines the mythic action of The Savage Sword of Conan and Masters of the Universe with the breathtaking imagination of The Fifth Element, Valerian, John Carter, and Avatar.

Long before civilization emerged on Earth, there was Planet Alkebulan—the first planet in the universe and the hidden birthplace of all life. Protected by a mystical Life Force Regulator, the planet creates new species and sends them across the cosmos to populate suitable worlds. But when the regulator is damaged, Alkebulan's concealed location is revealed, making it the most coveted prize in existence.

Standing between creation and annihilation are the planet's legendary guardians. Quhala, a master of the Life Force, wields enchanted arrows capable of draining the energy from any living being, while her partner Shabaka carries the mysterious Kem Sword, an ancient weapon whose full power has yet to be revealed. Together they battle savage lifeforms, rescue their captured king, restore the Life Force Regulator, and ultimately defend their world against the ruthless invasion of the Yahagus AKA The YaHoos, who seek to steal the sacred life fluid that sustains creation itself.

The collection also includes Here Come the YaHoos, an exciting bonus tale that expands the Hollaverse mythology and introduces readers to one of its most dangerous civilizations, setting the stage for future adventures throughout Jeff Carroll's interconnected universe.

Battle Space Hollaverse is a two- to three-player strategy board game of interstellar fleet combat. Players secretly deploy their fleets across a grid, then take turns calling out coordinates to locate and destroy enemy ships. Each successful strike reveals the enemy’s position and brings the player closer to victory. Players must use strategy, deduction, and careful fleet placement to protect their own ships while hunting down their opponents.

The objective is simple: locate, target, and destroy the enemy fleet before they destroy yours.

With its space-combat theme and connection to the Hollaverse, Battle Space Hollaverse transforms the classic hidden-fleet strategy concept into a cosmic battle between powerful space forces.

Celebrating the growth as Spoof Streetz receives a record 5 award nominations

 

To everyone who has ever supported my comic book projects—

Thank you.

Every single project I’ve created has been a step off the beaten path. No traditional superheroes. No guaranteed market. Just stories that aim to be different, honest, and true to my voice.

And every time—you showed up.

That means more than I can fully put into words.

In this industry, everyone is chasing “the best.” But the truth is, there is no single “best.” What I strive for is something else—to be original, to stand out, to tell stories that feel real, bold, and unique. Your support has given me the freedom to do exactly that.

Because of you, Spoof Streetz—a project that had no clear lane as a Black humor comic—didn’t just survive… it made its mark.

Now, it’s been nominated for multiple Glyph Comics Awards, including Best Writer, Best Artist, Best Cover, Story of the Year, and Fan Favorite.

That moment belongs to all of us.

You believed in something unconventional. You supported stories that didn’t follow the rules. You helped prove that different has power.

And as a writer, that encouragement pushes me to keep going, keep growing, and keep creating without limits.

I’m grateful for you. I’m building because of you.

And we’re just getting started.

Thank you.

Jeff Carroll's releases a documentary on Science Fiction

  

Streaming Release February 1st, 2026

Why I Love Sci-Fi is an intimate, thought-provoking 75-minute documentary that explores the power, politics, and imagination of science fiction through the eyes of pioneering Black sci-fi creator and award-winning filmmaker Jeff Carroll.

Presented in an in-depth interview format, the film is guided by Nile Fortner, a respected multimedia journalist and founder of Las Olas Insider, known for his cultural reporting with the Sun-Sentinel, Miami New Times, and the Cinephellas podcast. Together, Fortner and Carroll dive deep into science fiction’s past, present, and future—unfiltered, unscripted, and unapologetic.

With a background in comedy, activism, and education, Carroll brings humor, honesty, and sharp insight to every question. A self-described political activist writer with roots in the Civil Rights movement, Carroll has coordinated justice marches with Rev. Al Sharpton and studied in Egypt and Ghana under legendary African scholars including Dr. Ben, Dr. Leonard Jeffries, and James Small. His lived experience informs his perspective on sci-fi as both escapism and resistance.

An entrepreneur since college, Carroll has represented major comedians such as Mo’Nique, Kevin Hart, Godfrey, and Michael Blackson. He recently taught 12th-grade English, using his minor in African History to teach Frankenstein and Beowulf through a culturally relevant lens. With over 25 years as a sci-fi and horror writer, six produced films, multiple comic books and novels, Why I Love Sci-Fi stands as both a personal manifesto and cultural critique.

What began as Greek letters used to engage Black audiences at an MLK march evolved into the now-iconic I Love Sci-Fi (Ψ Φ) brand—a symbol of Black imagination, futurism, and creative freedom.

Key topics include:

·       What is science fiction—and Black sci-fi?

·       Why sci-fi resonates so deeply across cultures

·       Why sci-fi has been both vital and threatening

·       How sci-fi and horror have treated Black people

·       The future challenges and possibilities of Black speculative storytelling

Bonus: What first sparked Jeff Carroll’s love for science fiction?

Why I Love Sci-Fi is more than a documentary—it’s a cultural conversation, a love letter to imagination, and a call for ownership of the future.

HELLMONIC STREETZ: Urban Horror with Soul, Fire, and Faith

From the mind of Jeff Carroll, the creator of The Black Nun, comes Hellmonic Streetz—a double-feature comic blending divine vengeance, street horror, and mythic madness.

Born from quarantine, Hellmonic Streetz transforms what was meant to be the movie sequel to The Black Nun into a bold, illustrated vision. When Krampus is accidentally unleashed from Hell, only The Black Nun, a divine protector of the streets, can stand between Miami and demonic destruction. Her light collides with his chaos in an epic, supernatural showdown for the soul of the city.

But that’s just half the nightmare.
Also included is Slushie Man—a chilling urban legend of a Black Snowman come to life. When a curse gone wrong transfers dark energy into the city’s slush, a monstrous snow-being rises, devouring souls and freezing the streets in terror. Blending witchcraft, street life, and spiritual vengeance, Slushie Man turns cold fear into blazing horror.

Hip Hop Comix & Flix: The New Direction of Genre Comics

Hip Hop Comix & Flix has adopted a bold new direction by embracing Genre Comics. The company has already published horror, Cyberfunk, and humor titles, and now plans to expand into more targeted genres exploring space, monsters, demons, and emotions such as paranoia.

Genre comics have an amazing history. In fact, comic books originally began as genre-based storytelling—long before superheroes dominated the shelves. Genre comics focus more on narrative and atmosphere than flashy action.

This new wave is the brainchild of Jeff Carroll, an award-winning horror filmmaker with six streaming horror films, over fifteen published science fiction books, and stories featured in vampire and horror anthologies.

Classic genre comics like Tales from the Crypt, Cracked, and Mad Magazine were immensely popular from the 1930s through the 1990s. Magazines such as Eerie and Creepy emerged to bypass the Comics Code Authority while delivering short, gripping stories. In the U.K., 2000 AD continued the tradition, while Heavy Metal explored dark fantasy and science fiction.

Now, modern publishers like Oni Press are reviving the legacy of EC Comics—seventy years later—with a fresh variety of genre-driven stories.
