JACK RABBIT #1 DEBUTS AT 99¢

Booze. Broads. Demons... And Dead Kids.
Contraband Comics Explores
Supernatural-Noir In Newest Title.

September 26th, 2012, Tempe, AZJack Rabbit #1 is an all-new supernatural-noir thriller from creator-owned comic book publisher, Contraband Comics. Set in 1930’s Los Angeles, the story follows ex-boxer-turned-private detective, Jackson “Jack Rabbit” Quaid, as he navigates a seedy and increasingly surreal underworld of the occult.
Available digitally in both a FREE 11-page preview and a $0.99 24-page Standard Issue release, Jack Rabbit #1 is Contraband Comics' newest release through their exclusive digital partnership with iVerse Media. The premiere issue in a five-part limited series from writer, Jon Goff (Spawn, Halo Evolutions), and artist, Jim Hanna (Philly) can be downloaded through the Comics Plus digital comic book app for iOS, Android and desktop viewing, HERE.
“Each of Contraband’s titles are a blend of genres. With Jack Rabbit, Jim and I are mixing a heavy dose of noir with a variety of elements from horror and the supernatural to a touch of sci-fi and even a bit of a POP sensibility,” Contraband Comics founder, Jon Goff said. “The end result, we hope, is an experience that drags the reader through the muck of Jack’s life, but in an occasionally cringe-worthy, ultimately entertaining manner.”
