“Profane, disgusting and utterly brilliant.”—Jeff Lemire
Shades of Hunter S. Thompson color AIRBOY, starring acclaimed author James Robinson (Starman, Fantastic Four)
and artist Greg Hinkle (THE RATTLER) as they attempt to reboot the
Golden Age hero. When the actual Airboy suddenly shows up after a boy's
night out of debauchery, a hangover becomes the least of their trouble.
“This is me looking back at a dark
time in my life...and making light of it,” said Robinson. “And like all
satire, I leave it to the reader to decide what happened and what
didn't.”Added Hinkle: "As a reader, I always enjoy bonus material, so I'm really excited to share some more process pages, preliminary work, and even a little sample of how our collaboration worked."
AIRBOY DELUXE HARDCOVER (ISBN 9781632155436) hits comic book stores Wednesday, April 27th and bookstores Tuesday May 3rd, and will be available for $24.99. It can be ordered by Diamond Book Distributors with Diamond code FEB160620, and it can be preordered now on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Indiebound, and Indigo.
Praise for AIRBOY:
“Airboy
is the best thing James Robinson has ever done, thanks in no small part
to the outstanding artwork of Greg Hinkle. As insanely imaginative as
it is cringe-inducingly honest, this is mandatory reading.”—Brian K. Vaughan
“Self-examination via public domain extra-dimensional mashup. Searingly honest and wildly funny, with a dark but mighty heart.”—Darwyn Cooke
“Airboy
is the kind of comic book that keeps me reading comic books. Inventive,
confessional, fun and full of character…a fearless experiment that is
refreshing and purely entertaining.”—Rick Remender
