Leading graphic novel publisher Papercutz’s Free Comic Book Day 2018 title will be a new, never before published story featuring The Only Living Boy by Harvey-award winning creators David Gallaher and Steve Ellis. Inspired by classic pulp novels, old-time radio broadcasts and Saturday morning cartoons, The Only Living Boy has charmed readers, critics and librarians alike over the course of five critically acclaimed graphic novels. Now, in Papercutz’s Free Comic Book Day title The Only Living Boy: Under the Light of the Broken Moon, Gallaher and Ells will delve into the secrets inside the laboratory of the sinister scientist Doctor Once.

In The Only Living Boy, 12-year old Erik Farrell runs away from home only to find himself without his memory, stranded on a patchwork planet with danger lurking around every corner. Every day is a struggle to survive. Erik quickly allies himself with Morgan, a mermaid warrior and Thea, a teenage princess from a mysterious insect race. He’ll need their help to escape the Dreaded Lord Baalikar and the evil Doctor Once and maybe, one day, find his way back home.

The Only Living Boy: Under the Light of the Broken Moon will be available for free at comic shops on May 5th 2018; check your local comic shops for availability.
