Webcomics in Print: Gotham City Garage, Pussycats, And More!
Jan 19, 2018
by Troy-Jeffrey Allen
Here at PREVIEWSworld.com, we love it when an online original finally comes to print. Why? Because we get to re-experience them in a new format that we can display proudly on our shelves.
And that’s exactly what we have here!
These books were once constrained to the Internet or your mobile device...but no longer! Now, they are being collected IRL and are available to pre-order at your local comic shop now!
Gotham City Garage #11 and 12
For those of you who love the imagery of DC Collectibles’ Gotham City Garage statues but can’t muster the skrilla to get one (like me!), you can admire the artwork inspired by the line with the Gotham City Garage comic series.
In the latest installments, Lobo comes along for the ride as Mercy Graves plots to take down Lex Luthor. But something tells us that Luthor might be hell on wheels himself. Will Mercy give Lex a case of road rash? Find out in Gotham City Garage #11 (JAN180291) and Gotham City Garage #12 (JAN180292)!
The Spider-King #2
Okay. Our bad. We probably should have covered issue one (DEC170543) of Spider-King last month as opposed to issue two (JAN180553) this month. But the good news is that the debut issue hasn’t hit comic shops yet. So there is still time to get in on the ground floor of Simone D’Armini and Josh Vann’s critically-acclaimed Kickstarter-funded comic.
This sci-fi/fantasy adventure pits the Viking of 965 A.D. against an intergalactic warlord with far more advanced weaponry. But Vikings are Viking. They refuse to go down without a fight. However, you better believe they are going to loot and pillage a few spaceships to even the odds.
Pussycats: The End of Everything #1
The cult hit returns!
In the totally gonzo, absolutely grindhouse tradition of Faster, Pussycat! Kill Kill! and Switchblade Sisters comes Pussycats: The End of Everything #1 (JAN181641)!
Funded through Kickstarter, Pussycats: End of Everything reintroduces readers to paramilitary lesbian lovers (and fighters) Viper and Foxglove. This go-round the lethal ladies take their fight to The White House lawn while a zombie infestation is taking over the United States! But don’t pity this deadly duo. Viper and Foxglove have replenished their ammunition and are determined to save the day. It's those decomposing zeds that need to watch their back.
Spectacle, Book 1
Megan Rose Gedris brings her three-ring supernatural tale to Oni Press with Spectacle (JAN181822).
Originally presented as a webcomic, Spectacle is the paranormal story of circus psychic Anna. When Anna’s deceased sister visits her in spectral form demanding her sister solve her murder, the two siblings must search every tent in the Samson Brothers Circus to get to the bottom of this homicide.
Look for part one of this three-volume YA mystery when hits comic stores May 23rd.
