-Have you missed on the ebullient fun that is Lumberjanes (Eisner winner!) and Giant Days? Don’t miss out again!
-Boom! Studios mainstay, Kate Leth, will be writing the series, bringing to bare her previous experience on Adventure Time Fionna and Cake, Bravest Warriors, and Edward Scissorhands.
-Prophecies in most narratives revolve around epic heroes and legendary heroines. Power Up is not that story.
-Instead, the heroes of prophecy are an apathetic woman in her late twenties, a past-his-prime athlete, a mother of two, and a goldfish. Yes, you read that last one right.
-Ales Kot is gaining a reputation as the Hunter S. Thompson of comics, writing some of the most psychedelic, trippy series in recent years.
-Now, Kot launches Wolf, an ongoing detective/crime story from Image Comics!
-But unlike your Chinatowns and Maltese Falcons, Wolf will have hints of the supernatural, akin to True Detective or the Dresden Files.
-Fair warning, there may also be a fair share of Thomas Pynchon’s Inherent Vice, for those that are so inclined.
