Series Premiere. The first stunning issue of a brand-new series from Giant Generator showcasing the first graphic novel work by screenwriter Peter Warren (The Incal feature film, Kill Me) with jaw-dropping art by Francesco Mobili (X-Men, Scumbag) and beautifully colored by Chris Chuckry (New X-Men). Johnny Moore is a world-famous tech mogul known as much for his work pioneering mobility aids for people with disabilities (like himself) as he is for moonlighting as the metal-suited vigilante, Caliburn. But when Johnny is found murdered and his suit stolen, his estranged childhood best friends reunite to solve the mystery of his murder. The Tin Can Society is a heartfelt and human look at the evolution of friendships across a lifetime, at disability and ableism, and the destructive power of fame.

The New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender and showrunner/writer Peter Warren team up with fan-favorite artist Francesco Mobili for an all-new cyberpunk, super-powered adventure in the forthcoming The Tin Can Society. The nine issue miniseries and is set to launch from the Giant Generator line at Image Comics in September.

In The Tin Can Society, Johnny Moore is a world-famous tech mogul known as much for his work pioneering mobility aids for people with disabilities (like himself) as he is for moonlighting as the metal-suited vigilante, Caliburn. But when Johnny is found murdered and his suit stolen, his estranged childhood best friends reunite to solve the mystery of his murder. The Tin Can Society is a heartfelt and human look at the evolution of friendships across a lifetime, at disability and ableism, and the destructive power of fame. The book is a superhero story as if it was told through the lens of Stephen King. Not the horror version of King but more the Stand by Me version. It’s a story about a bunch of kids who grew up together and one of them became a superhero. The comic opens up with his death and the rest of them trying to figure out who did it.
