Adam Christopher Fulton (aka LiveCorpse) was a popular Flash animator of Newgrounds. He committed suicide in June 2004 in order to escape from incarceration for the stabbing of a neighbor and for shooting a pursuing police officer.

After graduating from a continations school, Adam enlisted into the United States Army. He was discharged shortly after due to a leg injury he had received in Boot Camp. Once returning home from the army in 2001, Adam opened up a website titled “LIVECORPSE-COMICS”. On this site, Adam had uploaded numerous hand-drawn comics he made throughout his life. Adam would continue to occasionally upload comics to his site, until September 6th 2003, when Adam found a new home, Newgrounds.com. After 3 days, Adam learned how to make his own flash animations, and quickly started to fill up his profile with submissions. Donning the handle, “Livecorpse”, he grew a small following in the Newgrounds community for the use of his dark sense of humor and the extreme amount of gore used in his animations. By this time, Adam had moved out of his parents home in San Jose California, to his new apartment in Tucson, Arizona. He was living on his own, and was working construction jobs in order to make a living. In the late night of June 8th 2004, one of Adams Neighbors attempted to gain unlawful entry to his Apartment. After telling his Neighbor to not come in, multiple times, the Neighbor would not budge. At one point there was a scuffle and Adam ended up stabbing the Neighbor. Due to the fear of his act of self-defense not being lawful, Adam ran out of his apartment with gun in hand, and shot a responding Police Officer who confronted him. Adam managed to evade the first responders, and was put on Arizona's most wanted. For the next 3 days, Adam laid tossing and turning inside of a dumpster, contemplating on what to do next. At 4:46 on June 11th, Adam decided what to do next. He bought a Sun Tran day pass, and rode back to his apartment. When he arrived, he broke a window to his apartment in order to get inside, which he had done a year before when he locked himself outside. This time, he was not going back outside, ever. Once inside, Adam logged onto his computer and wrote two emails explaining everything that had occurred, and what was going to occur next. At 6:11 A.M, Adams parents called the San Jose PD, and reported that Adam sent the two suicide emails to them. San Jose PD then forwarded the information to the Tucson Police Department, who then dispatched officers out to Adams apartment. Sometime around 6:30 A.M, after hearing sirens from the first responders, Adam went into his bathroom and committed suicide via a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. In the end, the Neighbor nor the Officer were killed, and only suffered minor wounds.

Adam is survived by his Mother, Father, and Brother.
