RE-BOOT TO THE HEAD
UNCANNY SKULLKICKERS #1 Is Everything For Everyone
This
February, Image Comics invites readers to jump on board action and
adventure, newly reinvigorated with a very special adjective – THE UNCANNY SKULLKICKERS!
"After
almost twenty issues of critically-acclaimed cranium-smashing
adventure, we felt it was important to remind retailers and readers that
Skullkickers is the most enjoyable adventure series in the
entire comic industry," said Image PR and Marketing Director Jennifer de
Guzman. "What better way to do that than to add a spiffy new adjective
to it! That's what people do, right?”
UNCANNY SKULLKICKERS, written by Jim Zub and drawn by adorable elf-man Edwin Huang, begins the second half of the epic six-arc SKULLKICKERS storyline and is a perfect jumping-on point for new readers of the action-comedy fantasy series. And who doesn't want to be known as a reader of a comic about hard-headed mercenaries knocking heads for fun and profit? I mean, really.
"We pride ourselves on making each and every issue of Skullkickers accessible, but this spiffy #1 is that times ten," said creator Zub. "We quickly recap the story that's come before and then push forward into new action-packed territory: a deadly island of mystery, swashbuckling adventure, ferocious man-eating turtles, pissed-off apes... it's a cornucopia of entertainment.”
And if you're a diehard collector of SKULLKICKERS who's sad that you won't have a SKULLKICKERS #19 to add to your collection? Don't worry, we've thought of everything. In addition to the regular "Uncanny” cover we're offering a special "issue #19 variant” B cover to make sure your collector streak is unbroken.
It's new. It's classic. It's a modern reinterpretation that gets back to the roots of these timeless characters.
