October 28,  2014 (Los Angeles, Calif.) - KaBOOM!, the award-winning all-ages imprint from publisher BOOM! Studios, is pleased to announce Capture Creatures, a new, original series from popular Tiny Kitten Teeth creators Frank Gibson (The Amazing World of Gumball) and Becky Dreistadt (Adventure Time). Based on a yearlong blog challenge and following a successfully funded Kickstarter for an art book and a widely attended gallery showing of Dreistadt’s original painted art, Capture Creatures is a heartwarming story about over one hundred strange creatures that suddenly appear on Earth and the two teens who will do whatever they can to keep them safe and figure out where they came from.

 

“Becky and Frank are both enormously talented, and we’re so happy to be working with them again on a new original series,” said BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Matt Gagnon. “They’ve created over a hundred amazing creatures, making this a very ambitious project that has potential for so many delightful stories. There are adorable creatures for everybody to discover, and each one of them comes with their own unique story.”

 

Capture Creatures #1 arrives from KaBOOM! in comic shops on November 26th with a cover price of $3.99 under Diamond order code SEP141165. The main covers are illustrated by Becky Dreistadt and Joy Ang, with retailer incentive covers by Missy Pena (The Amazing World of Gumball) and Amanda Visell.
