A message from EIC, Michael Perkins:
It’s been a wild year. With Diamond Distribution declaring bankruptcy in January, we were left in a precarious position regarding getting our books into bookstores. While they claimed there would be no disruption in their services, they left us with thousands of dollars in unpaid invoices, books that weren’t getting sent to shops, and frankly no real hope for the future.
But we quickly pivoted and got set up to have our books distributed by Lunar instead! And we’re very proud to announce that our very first Lunar listing is live RIGHT NOW! It’s Jimmie Robinson’s “Artillery” and you are going to LOVE IT!
What’s the story, you ask?
All human art and creativity comes from an ancient power source, amplified by magical gateways all over the world, but now a sentient A.I. is closing the gateways in order to control all of the world’s creative arts.
As humanity loses the ability to create art, the last gateway brings the Mona Lisa to life so she can form a team of artists to steal the gateways of creativity back from the A.I.
Three artists are given magical abilities that transform their art into weapons. A graffiti artist, a film FX artist, and a comic book artist. Together they plan an elaborate heist to save the last gateway of creativity.
It’s in the Lunar catalog right now, and the final order cutoff is August 4th. Tell your local comic shop (and any comic fans you know!) to order this fantastic book. This is part 1 of a 3-part book, and it’s 44 pages of art-heist, sci-fi adventure! Take a look!
