Newcomer 247 Comics Announces Full Creator Roster For 2023Last month, the publisher with a mission to change the landscape of comics publishing announced that their first title would be created by Sean Chen, who 30 years earlier led the creative charge of one of modern comics greatest disruptors: Valiant Entertainment, and moving on to widely acclaimed runs on some of Marvel and DC’s most well-known characters.

Now, following the announcement of this inaugural title, 247 announces the next wave of creators leading a change in not only the way that comics are published, but the way that creators are paid for their work.

It was almost too much fun to write, and getting to bring Daniele Di Nicuolo and Walter Baiamonte into the fold felt momentous—because their work has been a big inspiration for this initiative since the beginning.”

Swamp Thing Meets Robocop In New Enviro-Dystopian Thriller Junk Rabbit

New Enviro-Dystopian Thriller Junk RabbitFan-favorite creator Jimmie Robinson (Bomb Queen) puts a new spin on a dystopian tale of climate disaster in the upcoming Junk Rabbit. This all-new ongoing series will launch from Image/Shadowline Comics in April 2023.

In Junk Rabbit, a new hero rises from heaps of consumer waste, mass homelessness, and devastating climate change. Some call the hero a myth, an urban legend, but others know that it’s the Junk Rabbit come to life—and now it’s on a bloody path of revenge against those who created it.

“The iconic heroes of today will not reflect the future we inherit.

This new enviro-thriller explores a worst-case-scenario that alters not only our world and the heroes that literally rise from its ashes—but also how one family can change the future by unlocking the secret of the Junk Rabbit.

Rogue State Is Highest Selling Premier Issue In Black Mask Studios History

Rogue State Is Highest Selling Premier Issue In Black Mask Studios HistoryRogue State #1 becomes all time best seller for Black Mask, selling out on launch day with a second printing announced. Black Mask is rushing Rogue State to second printing with two covers by Jasmin Darnell (Godkiller) that will arrive in both standard and ‘gallery’ (no-text) editions.

While Jasmin Darnell’s cover art presents a powerful image of post-apocalyptic street artist Dust Girl, Ramon Villalobos’ Tour Cover pays homage to the history of socially-engaged public art in San Francisco’s Mission District, where Rogue State is set.

Rogue State #1 reunites C. Granda and Matteo Pizzolo, who first collaborated on the acclaimed CALEXIT: SAN DIEGO project which partnered with Indivisible on a 2018 midterms Voter Registration campaign at San Diego Comic Con as well as a California-wide Get Out The Vote initiative and raised funds for migrant families separated at the US-Mexico border.

Rogue State combines Granda’s experiences coming of age amid political violence in Medellín-Colombia with Pizzolo’s street-politics, crafting the story of a near-future America overrun by political violence set in the embattled blue-enclave of ‘Occupied San Francisco.’
