THE ASSEMBLERS ASSEMBLE A GRAPHIC NOVEL
Popular Web Comic gets collected by Transfuzion Publishing



(April 17, 2011) The Assemblers, the long running webcomic appearing on DrunkDuck, has just been collected into graphic novel format by Transfuzion Publishing. Written and illustrated by Andy Dudak, The Assemblers is a futuristic tale of destruction yet also rebirth.


The story centers on October 30th, 2151. Devil’s Night. Traditionally this has been a celebration of havoc as the night before Halloween has long been dedicated to spray paint and fire, to destruction for its own sake. But in the future, the impulse behind this frenzied holiday is alive and well but mischief in the Age of Nanotech is much more complicated.


Featuring three young vandals-- Bardo, Shiyu, and Dwyer who team up to provide visionary tactics of mayhem in a futuristic world. To keep the spirit of their egg-throwing forbearers alight, perilous alchemy is required. But the unleashing of such power will bring enemies, and lead to an opening of an abyss that could swallow its makers whole.


“When Andy sent me the link to the Drunk Duck site to check out the webcomic,” publisher Gary Reed said, “I was instantly impressed by the incredible detail in his artwork. And then I started reading it and I was even more impressed with the sophistication of his story-telling. It’s really a though provoking story with great art.”


Featured on Drunk Duck, the Assemblers ran for about 90 pages and recently wrapped up and was promptly collected by Transfuzion for release in graphic novel form. It is available from Amazon.com as well as the publisher which has more information and a preview. A longer preview is also available on myebooks.com.

AMAZON REVIEWS:

“Multi-talented author and artist Andy Dudak announces himself with this mind-bending and gripping graphic novel that will please fans of both William Gibson and Inception. Indispensable and awesome.”

“Mr. Dudak's masterful artwork and original future vision are showcased brilliantly in this epic graphic novel. His strikingly original take on nanotechnology, philosophy and vandalism as seen through the eyes of a group of talented, yet mischievous youngsters comes together beautifully in a story world that is as immersive as it is beautiful.”
