BOOM! Studios has announced Bodie Troll, a new all-ages graphic novel written and illustrated by Jay Fosgitt charging into stores February 2018 about a seemingly fearsome monster who is actually a lovable grump. This giant graphic novel comes in at over 250 pages and includes all the content previously published by Red 5 Comics plus all-new original stories about Bodie’s continuing adventures.

The villagers of Hagadorn whisper tales of Bodie Troll’s ferociousness and tread lightly when they cross his bridge. At least, that’s what Bodie would like to think. Despite his desires to strike fear in the hearts of others, Bodie is a cute and cuddly grump of a troll. But what he might lack in ferocity, he makes up for in spirit. Alongside his best friend Cholly and her Fairy Godmother, Bodie has a habit of finding trouble and adventure. If he’s lucky, he just might scare someone along the way.

Print copies of Bodie Troll will be available for sale February 2018.

It is the mission of Red 5 Comics to produce smart, fun-filled comics that bring joy to comic readers of any age. In the tradition of titles like Eisner-nominated Atomic Robo and YALSA-winning We Kill Monsters, comes the all-new exploits of the under-sized and over-personalitied Bodie Troll.

In the fairytale village of Hagadorn lurks Bodie Troll, a fuzzy little grump who wants to be big and scary, but is doomed to be cute and cuddly. But what Bodie lacks in terror he makes up for in mischief. Silly and suspenseful adventures await just beyond his bridge!

Bodie Troll is the creation of cartoonist Jay P. Fosgitt, the writer and artist for such graphic novels as Little Green Men, Dino Duck and Old McMonster’s Haunted Farm. His whimsical art style graced Dreamworks Animation Magazine and the book Team Cul De Sac: Cartoonists Draw the Line at Parkinson’s.

Bodie will be introduced to Red 5 Comic’s largest-ever audience as he will share pages with Atomic Robo in this May’s Free Comic Book Day issue. Retailers will want to have copies of Bodie Troll #1 on hand for the event.

As Red 5 is an independent publisher, the best way to ensure your copy of Bodie Troll this spring is to pre-order it before February 28 from your comic shop using order code FEB131119. “Bonnie Lass #1” of the four-issue series is a spotlight item in July’s Diamond Preview catalog and set for release on April 17, 2013 for just $2.99.
