“Scratch9: Cat of Nine Worlds” Sells Out at Comic-Con

New Original Graphic Novel Gone By Day 2 of San Diego Fest

(July 13, 2015) - Advance copies of the all-new, all-ages original graphic novel “Scratch9: Cat of Nine Worlds” have sold out at Comic-Con International, San Diego. Publisher Hermes Press offered this sequel to the Eisner-nominated “Scratch9” for the first time this weekend. By day two of the convention, all available copies were in the hands of eager readers. Coming in with over 175 pages of story and artwork, the epic-length cat tale is written by Eisner-nominated series creator Rob M. Worley and illustrated by the phenomenal Joshua Buchanan.

It features a foreword by Eisner-winner Mike Kunkel with additional art and pinups by Kevin Eastman, Francesco Francavilla, Rafael Albuquerque, Jay Fosgitt and Jenny Parks.

“We are floored by the fervor for this book,” said Worley of the sell-out. “From people who were just hearing about our cat for the first time, to folks who met us 5 years ago ago Comic-Con when the first issue debuted, people are excited about finding new Scratch9 comics.”

Fans who missed out at Comic-Con will want to ask their local comic shops to order the book from the Diamond Previews catalog (ordering code #MAR15 1391, ISBN: 978-1613450857). The book is slated to arrive in comic shops in late July and retail bookstores in August.
