GRUMPY CAT AND POKEY CONTINUE THEIR MISADVENTURES ONLINE
IN DYNAMITE'S ALL-NEW WEEKLY DIGITAL COMIC SERIES!



June 6, 2016, Mt. Laurel, NJ: Dynamite Entertainment's original comic series following everyone's favorite Kitty Curmudgeon and her sibling sidekick was one of last year's breakout hits. After selling out of a nearly 100,000 copy print run of the first collection, and celebrating 12 Days of Christmas with Nerdist, Grumpy and Pokey arrive in their very own weekly web series!

Written by Ben Fisher (Smuggling Spirits), Ben McCool (Captain America and the Korvac Saga), Royal McGraw (Detective Comics), and Derek Fridolfs (Looney Tunes, Dexter's Laboratory), and featuring art from Mauro Vargas (Star Wars: Darth Maul - Son of Dathomir, Thief: Tales from the City), this all-new twice-weekly webcomic launches today on GrumpyCatComics.com!

Nick Barrucci, CEO and Publisher of Dynamite says, "Working with the fine folks at Grumpy Cat has been absolutely wonderful. We're so very pleased with how our comics have found such an enthusiastic audience. Given that Grumpy Cat first captured the world's hearts online, we thought it only fitting that she receive her own weekly comic strip on the Dynamite website. These twice-weekly strips are sure to please readers of all ages with the same brand of humor fans have come to expect from Dynamite's beloved comic series!"

"These are sure to be some of the cutest comic strips ever... I hate them." - Grumpy Cat
