Their only clue is an ancient blade passed down by their father. The story comes from the mind of Doug Marcaida, an edged-weapons specialist and Filipino martial artist. The debut issue of LINEAGE exploded on Kickstarter, proving there’s a massive audience hungry for grounded, intelligent action comics with real stakes. Now, the campaign returns and aims to bring LINEAGE to life in a completed trade paperback that fans won’t want to miss.

At age 25 he discovered his love for Filipino Martial Arts, and the rest is history. Interviewed by Mick Tully who is a JKD Instructor under Guro Dan Inosanto and Rick Faye.

Doug Marcaida served in the US Air Force for 8 years, then became a Respiratory Therapist for 20 years, all while teaching and honing his Filipino martial skills. He developed his own style of Filipino Martial Arts, called Marcaida Kali and his core belief: It’s not about how many you hurt, it’s about how many you protect. This motto eventually evolved into Doug’s popular catchphrase “It will K.E.Al” ( Keep Everyone Alive).
