Glamorella’s Daughter Returns to Kickstarter!

The sixth issue of Glamorella’s Daughter continues on Kickstarter til Saturday, August 26, 2023. Reward tiers include the opportunity to catch up with all previous issues and the continuation of the Glamorella’s Daughter Sticker Series as the first physical stretch goal. Issues 1 through 5 were selected as Kickstarter “Projects We Love,” and had excellent backer response. The Volume One softcover collecting the first four issues was recently named a Kirkus Reviews “Indie Book Worth Discovering.”

Creators Jerry Bennett and Charles J. Martin continue the saga of Comet and her family! Emmet, Isaac, and Betsy, locked away in the castle’s dungeon, may have found the help they need to escape and rescue Glamorella and Comet in the process.

Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Posted on April 25, 2023 by Graphic Policy Team

Wednesdays (and Tuesdays) are new comic book day! Each week hundreds of comics are released, and that can be pretty daunting to go over and choose what to buy. That’s where we come in

Each week our contributors choose what they can’t wait to read this week or just sounds interesting. In other words, this is what we’re looking forward to and think you should be taking a look at!

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

Alien #1 (Marvel) – An alien unthaws from the snow ice and we’re always pumped for a new alien adventure.

Bulls of Beacon Hill #4 (AfterShock) – The series has been fantastic with a nice brutal and gritty mob story.

By the Horns: Dark Earth #8 (Scout Comics) – The blight continues to spread across Solothus as the Augernaut repairs near completion and Yun Ma’s plan for the continent begins to take shape. An awesome fantasy series with amazing art.

Deep Cuts #1 (Image Comics) – Stories of struggle, joe, and hope through the history of jazz. We’re excited to read this blend of music and comics.

Green Arrow #1 (DC Comics) – The Emerald Archer is lost, and it will take Oliver Queen’s whole family to find him! We’re pumped for a new Green Arrow series and we’re hoping the entire crew gets the spotlight they deserve.

Invincible Iron Man #5 (Marvel) – Tony is getting roped into the world of the X-Men and how it plays out should be something new and interesting.

Local Man #3 (Image Comics) – The series has been great blending classic image superheroes with a bit of a modern twist. Really solid so far and one for fans of superhero comics.

Money Shot Comes Again #1 (Vault Comics) – The XXX-plorers are back on their hands and knees for the good of humanity! When the giant ass space jellyfish who run the ordered universe arrive on earth, the porn-stars-cum-science explorers must put away grudges, crushes, and side-hustles to once again take one (or two! or three!) for the team.

Plush #6 (Image Comics) – Rednecks versus cannibalistic, serial-killing furries. The series has been crazy in all of the right ways.

Seven Years in Darkness #1 (CEX Publishing) – The Academy of Black Magic has reopened its doors for the first time in 200 years! Seventy-two children will walk through the Academy doors for freshmen year. But only seven will graduate and walk out alive!

Silence #1 (Literati Press) – Johanna Jones returns to her hometown of Anthem, a down-on-its-luck shipping town, to discover the ship her father sailed on has gone missing. She ends up aboard a yellow submarine named the Heart of Gold, headed directly into Hades’ Hexagon to find the missing crew, accompanied by her childhood best friend, a rich young addict, and a punk legend.

Sins of Sinister: Dominion #1 (Marvel) – The event wraps up and we’re intrigued to see how it’s all pulled off in one issue.

Devin Kraft’s Silence #1 rings out April 2023 from Literati Press

Posted on February 6, 2023 by Graphic Policy Team

Visionary creator Devin Kraft brings his music and mythology mash-up Silence to Literati Press Comics. Silence will be a 5-issue limited series launching with issue 1 hitting shops April 26 [Diamond Previews Code: FEB231563].

Silence is a story about music and its power to hold things together even as the world falls apart. Returning to her hometown of Anthem, a down-on-its-luck seaport, Johanna Jones discovers the ship her father sailed on has gone missing. She ends up aboard a yellow submarine named the Heart of Gold headed directly into Hades’ Hexagon to find the missing crew, accompanied by her childhood best friend, a rich young addict, and a punk legend. Along the way, the quartet will form unlikely bonds, face astonishing threats, and rock the @#$% out.

Kraft burst onto the indie comics scene in 2013 with Dragon Slayer, a story about the price of pride and revenge, which raised over $25,000 on Kickstarter. In addition to his hit Neverender (Sumerian Comics), Kraft also draws Samurai Odyssey and provided art for The Garden of Galahad. He has also worked as an illustrator and designer across many media. Based in the DFW-metroplex, Kraft has lived in Tokyo and is originally from Roswell, New Mexico.

Silence will be available monthly beginning in April 2023 in comic book shops everywhere.
