Initially intending for it to be a short 32-page project, it took on a life of its own, expanding to a 200-page graphic novel. Since Amiculus, Travis has continued to write, crowdfund and publish comics under his label Amiculus Books, venturing into modern-day horror with Sugar Creek in 2019 and combining horror with ancient history in the vampire story In Noctem in 2021.
