Rick Remender, Brian Posehn, Brett Parson, and Moreno Dinisio have you shred with Grommets in April 2024

Writer Rick Remender teams with co-writer and Emmy Award winning comedian Brian Posehn, artist Brett Parson, and colorist Moreno Dinisio, for an all-new, ongoing comic book series titled, Grommets. This ’80s-infused coming-of-age story is set to launch in April 2024 from Remender’s Giant Generator line at Image Comics.

Grommets will feature a slew of variant covers by such artists as: David Lapham, Andrew Robinson, Alex Riegel, Chuck BB, and Jon Wayshak.

In Grommets, two outcast best friends navigate the Sacramento suburbs of 1984, where they find a home in skateboard culture and punk rock. Grommets is both an authentic look at ’80s skate culture—a snapshot of the generation that turned skating into a worldwide phenomenon—as well as a heartfelt coming-of-age story following two friends from troubled homes navigating their damage in an era when no one cared.

The series’ title sprints from skater slang, a “grommet” is a commonly used term for a young up-and-coming skater or surfer. Since the ’60s it’s been used to describe the next generation of kids who, with youthful exuberance, love the sport but want to put their spin on it.

Grommets #1 will be available at comic book shops in April 2024.
