Immortal Legend Batman #1

(W) Kyle Higgins, Mat Groom (A) Erica D’Urso

Humanity broke the barrier between our universe and our universe’s shadow. From the void came horrific apparitions that craved nothing but destruction. But from this terror… a legend was born. A warrior who found a way to access the energy that binds our universe and the shadow universe, transforming him into a cosmic dark knight. This immortal legend was named Batman. He fought to keep us safe but then one day abandoned the war. Though he didn’t disappear entirely. Now they say he hunts a rogues gallery of monsters… born from the shadows!

Kid Cudi’s Moon Man #1 is getting a third printing!

Grammy Award winning artist Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi, Eisner Award nominated co-writer and Massive-Verse architect Kyle Higgins, rising star artist Marco Locati, coloring powerhouse Igor Monti, Eisner Award winning letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, and editor high-flier Michael Busuttil’s Moon Man #1 issue is a machine that can’t be beat. This wildly popular debut issue has been wiped out completely—yet again—at the distributor level and will be rushed back to print this week by Image Comics in order to keep up with demand.

Moon Man follows Ramon Townsend, a man ready for a quiet life after gaining unexpected celebrity status for steering his ship and crew safely home from a near-disastrous moon mission. Whatever went wrong on that failed moon mission, whatever happened in the missing minutes the cameras didn’t capture, all Ramon really wants is to settle down back home in Cleveland. But those missing minutes hold an Earth-shattering secret—and, with all eyes turned to him, Ramon will soon find himself becoming something the world has never seen before.

Moon Man #1, third printing (Lunar Code 0324IM875) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, May 22.

Crowdfunding Corner: Mat Groom and Erica D’Urso’s Inferno Girl Red: Books ends soon!

Backer beware: Crowdfunding projects are not guaranteed to be delivered and/or delivered when promised. We always recommend to do your research before backing.

In 2021, an explosively successful Kickstarter campaign helped writer Mat Groom and artist Erica D’Urso deliver the 125-page graphic novel Inferno Girl Red: Book One–– which combined the high school super-heroic drama with the dynamic storytelling and world-building of Japanese tokusatsu superheroes, and the intrigue and relationship drama of British boarding school fiction. Now, they’re returning to Kickstarter to tell the next chapter in the story of legendary hero Inferno Girl Red in Inferno Girl Red: Book Two. Groom and D’Urso will be joined by the entire original creative team, including colorist Igor Monti, letterer Becca Carey , editor Kyle Higgins and design agency For the PeopleThe new campaign invites readers into the world already loved by thousands, with an opportunity to access both Inferno Girl Red: Book One and Book Two in either digital or deluxe, oversized hardcover forms. 

When her new home of Apex City was ripped out of existence and cast into darkness, Cássia Costa had to embrace an ancient power to become the legendary hero INFERNO GIRL RED. She rose to the challenge, pushing herself farther than she ever thought possible – but though Cássia protected the city from its first major threat, it cost her dearly. Now, still reeling from a heartbreaking loss, Cássia must forge a relationship with a new mentor, and expand an unlikely team – because the consequences of her previous “victory” have come back to haunt her, and a villainous duo is on the rise! A fraught potential romance beckons, a long-held secret threatens to be revealed, and an unimaginable choice could see Apex City left defenseless! Can Cássia navigate it all… or even survive it all?

The Kickstarter edition of Inferno Girl Red: Book Two will be the perfect accompaniment to the Kickstarter edition of BOOK ONE, with the same oversized, deluxe hardcover format, and a new, exclusive Kickstarter-only cover with Kickstarter exclusive behind-the-scenes materials. This edition will feature 120 pages of story (with behind-the-scenes materials and informational pages additional to this page count).

Hurry, just a few days remain to get your copy!
