Peter Panzerfaust Motion Comics Starring Elijah Wood, Ron Perlman, Summer Glau + more

A heartfelt story of friendship and heart-pounding adventure, the Image Comics/Shadowline comic book series, Peter Panzerfaust, has become a hit with multiple sell-outs of issues. The World War II based story is inspired by the classic J.M. Barrie creation Peter Pan. Now the fantastic independent series by writer Kurtis J. Wiebe and artist Tyler Jenkins is set to engross an even larger audience, with Adjacent Productions‘ and Quality Transmedia’s fully animated motion comic adaptation, featuring the voice talents of Elijah Wood, Summer Glau, Ron Perlman, and Dante Basco.

Wood and Glau will voice the characters of Peter and Wendy, while Perlman brings to life Peter’s arch-nemesis, the Nazi officer Kapitan Haken, the series’ incarnation of Captain Hook.  Basco, who played Rufio in the 1991 movie Hook, will return to the Neverland universe as the voice of Alain. The world premiere of a trailer for the motion comic will be shown at a panel at the Chicago entertainment convention C2E2. The session will feature Peter Panzerfaust creators Wiebe and Jenkins and Jeff Krelitz of Quality Transmedia, and takes place on Saturday, April 27 at 3:15 PM CDT.

The motion comic isn’t all Peter Panzerfaust fans have to look forward to.  Adjacent Productions and Quality Transmedia have announced that a live-action series based on the comic is also in development, and in May, Image Comics/Shadowline will release the second trade paperback volume of the series. Peter Panzerfaust: Hooked collects issues #6–10 of the series and features the introduction of Kapitan Haken, as well as the continued adventures of Peter, the Lost Boys, Wendy, and Tiger Lily in their fight against the Nazis as part of the French Resistance. It will be in stores on May 15 and is available to pre-order now. Peter’s adventures will continue in Peter Panzerfaust #11 in July.

One hand can make or break you. That has never been more true than now, and not just for Roland, but for the entire galaxy. After the sacrifice he made, the house of cards that is LOST VEGAS and all it stands for, begins to crumble. As the saying goes, you have to know when to run.

The EISNER AWARD-WINNING team of JIM McCANN
& JANET LEE wrap up their acclaimed series filled with intrigue and a compelling, unique universe.

“COMPLEX MESSIAH,” Part Four

A Massacre! 

An Awakening! 

And The True Face of Evil!

Featuring another classic TODD McFARLANE cover!!!

As the world eagerly awaits the gifts of their newest savior, Jim Downing’s struggle for control over the darkness within him threatens to jeopardize everything he has worked to build. Violence erupts in the deserts of Mexico as the K7 goes on a feeding frenzy, and for the first time Jim awakens to the realities of the monster that lives within him. Can a man live with so much blood on his hands, or will the weight of the world’s sins crush any hope of salvation?  While Jim wrestles with his new reality, an old adversary explores the true power behind Jim’s”miracles,” as THE CURSE makes his deadly return!

Also Featured: The K7-Leetha is a weapon of mass destruction birthed in the pits of Hell, a living creation built for one purpose — death. But what happens when a tool of unending violence has its own ambitions? A dark future awaits and the path forward begins here.

Peter Panzerfaust #10 Gets Second Printing

The last few months have been a flurry for the Image Comics/Shadowline series Peter Panzerfaust. The World War II adventure comic inspired by J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan has sold out of its last three issues, including the most recent, #10 — even though orders were more than double the initial orders of #9.

The second printing of Peter Panzerfaust #10 will be in stores on April 17 and can be pre-ordered at comic book stores now. You can use Diamond Comics code FEB138250. The first printing sold out the same week as its March 13 release. In addition to the all-new cover featuring art by series artist Tyler Jenkins, Image will also be producing a convention exclusive edition of the issue with a blank cover for sketches and autographs and a limited edition retailer exclusive edition as a token of thanks for the readers and retailers who have supported Peter Panzerfaust.

Issue #10 closes out the “Paris” story arc for the series and will be collected in the series’ second trade paperback, which will be in stores on May 15.

Fueled by the announcement of the production of a motion comic adaptation by the BBC and coverage in USA Today and The Huffington Post, Peter Panzerfaust has become the quintessential independent comics success story. A personal story for its creators writer Kurtis J. Wiebe and artist Jenkins, Peter Panzerfaust offers an emotional depth in a high-concept package, capturing readers’ devotion to this comic book series outside of the superhero mainstream.

Peter Panzerfaust #9 Gets Second Printing

Flying high after issues #7 and #8 sold out, the Image Comics/Shadowline series Peter Panzerfaust continues on its remarkable course, as issue #9 sold out well before its in-store date of today, February 13. A second printing has been ordered and will be in stores on March 13, the same day as Peter Panzerfaust #10.

The World War II adventure inspired by J.M. Barrie’s classic Peter Pan is written by Kurtis J. Wiebe and drawn by Tyler Jenkins. It was recently optioned by the BBC to be produced as a motion comic and a live-action drama.

A second printing of Peter Panzerfaust #7 will be in stores on March 6, while a second printing of #8 will be on shelves on February 27.

Peter Panzerfaust #7, featuring Tiger Lily, Gets 2nd Printing

Since the announcement that Peter’s arch-nemesis, Captain Hook, would make his debut in the Image Comics/Shadowline title Peter Panzerfaust by Kurtis J. Wiebe and Tyler Jenkins, the issues have been flying off the shelves. The issue with Kapitan Haken’s first appearance, #8, has received a second printing that will be in stores on February 27. And now copies of the preceding issue have landed in the hands of readers eager to learn about Peter’s backstory, necessitating a second printing of #7, which features the introduction of Tiger Lily. The second printing of Peter Panzerfaust #7 (DEC128267)will be in stores on March 6.

Peter Panzerfaust #9 will be on the shelves February 13. The first five issues of the series, which reimagines the Peter Pan mythology in a World War II setting, are available in a trade paperback, Peter Panzerfaust Volume One: The Great Escape.
