Critically-acclaimed cartoonist Rich Tommaso will launch an all-new series centered on his beloved character of the same name—Spy Seal—this August from Image Comics.

Originally created by Tommaso in his teens, Spy Seal made a big splash when it became instantly viral last fall, generating fan enthusiasm, cosplay, and Hollywood interest before being snapped up for an ongoing series. The series’ first chapter, The Corten-Steel Phoenix, finds Spy Seal, Britain’s newest covert agent, up to his neck in saboteurs, snipers, assassins, and double agents.

Spy Seal #1 (Diamond code: JUN170705) arrives in comic book stores Wednesday, August 16th. The final order cutoff for comics retailers is Monday, July 24th.
