Iman Vellani’s Solo Writing Debut Chachu #1 Heads Back to Print

Chachu #1

Superstar actor Iman Vellani’s solo writing debut Chachu #1, alongside fan-favorite artist Marianna Ignazzi and multiple Eisner Award winning colorist Jordie Bellaire, has sold out completely at the distributor level. Image Comics will rush this exciting new series back-to-print this week in order to keep up with customer demand.

Inspired by her own coming-of-age experiences in the entertainment industry, this all-new, five issue miniseries, produced by Tiny Onion, reinterprets the classic neo-noir private investigator story for a new generation of readers.

Set in 1979, Chachu follows Leila, a 19-year-old Pakistani-Canadian girl with a penchant for film and pulp novels, who travels to California hoping to connect with her estranged uncle—her “Chachu”—a middle-aged, semi-retired private eye once famous for marrying the starlet he was initially hired to find. But when his wife mysteriously vanishes once again, the two are forced on an impromptu road trip investigation that transforms her first taste of adulthood into a thrilling confrontation of family secrets, unresolved grief, and the fantasies both she and Chachu have built their lives around.

Chachu #1, second printing will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, September 2 – UPC: 70985304829900112

Chachu #1 is a fantastic issue and if you like detective/noir stories, don’t miss this debut!

1979. Leila, a 19-year-old Pakistani-Canadian girl, stands on the cusp of adulthood, eager to experience the “real world” for the first time. With a head full of Hollywood dreams and a penchant for pulp novels, she ventures to California to connect with her estranged uncle—her “Chachu”—a middle-aged, semi-retired private eye who gained brief fame after marrying the starlet he was initially hired to find. But when Chachu’s wife goes missing once again, the two are forced on an impromptu road trip to track her down—with Leila navigating young adulthood and Chachu confronting his own mortality and regrets.

The Infinity Stones become living beings in The Infinity Watch Annuals

"Infinity Watch"

The most coveted artifacts in the known universe have resurfaced, and this time, they’re bonded to the very bodies and souls of Marvel’s up-and-coming heroes and villains. For the Mad Titan, that just makes his hunt for them all the more sweeter. Across nine annuals starting with June’s Thanos Annual #1, witness the latest cosmos-shattering Infinity saga as celebrated icons and new fan-favorites battle it out to contain—or control—the limitless power of the Infinity Stones in the blockbuster summer event—”Infinity Watch.” Discover what awaits in “Infinity Watch” parts four through six this July and August!

The “Infinity Watch” crossover will be spearheaded by acclaimed writer Derek Landy. In addition to writing key chapters of the event, Landy will team up with artist Sara Pichelli on backup stories in each of the nine annuals that follow the creation and pursuit of the mysterious Death Stone-bearer who will be revealed in Thanos Annual #1.

The saga will follow up on previous Infinity Stone stories with the return of recent bearers including Star, Overtime, Prince of Power, Quantum, and Multitude, as well as introduce you to the new Mind Stone-Bearer, Worldmind, for the first time! As they deal with their god-like powers and mistrust from their peers, Thanos, fresh off his own dramatic transformation in Christopher Cantwell’s recent Thanos limited series, begins a bloody march to claim his dark destiny once more.

Last month, fans learned about the event’s opening chapters. Learn about what’s next for “Infinity Watch” in parts four through six!
