TURBO HAWK Part 2! A sci-fi meta-story with thrills, chills, and heart! A loving visual tribute to 90's action comics!

In a future ravaged by Alien Invasion, our cybernetically enhanced TURBO HAWK continues following the breadcrumbs down the rabbit hole on his quest to darker and darker corners of the post-apocalyptic setting.

Tradd, The Blades of Vengeance Himself, is following close by, but is he friend or foe? TURBO HAWK gets deeper into trouble as he investigates whether or not the shocking revelations about Rain, his formerly fallen lady love, and what is going on with his former teammate, the deadly (and dead?!) Mr. Nullus? And can they trust Dr. Saccularius?

HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT TIME SHOPPER:

“In the words of Marty McFly, "This is nuts!" When warped time meets warped values, you get Time Shopper, a wonderfully crazy, irreverent, and irresponsible trip through history by a hero who has spent way too many hours watching the Home Shopping Network. Plus, there's a guest appearance by Jesus! What more could you want?"

-- BOB GALE

Academy Award Nominated Screenwriter of BACK TO THE FUTURE I-III

“Timeshopper is a fun romp of a story, pairing a tongue-in-cheek script by Tony Fleecs with some terrific comic art by Chris Meesey that turns the typical time-travel tale on its ear. It’s funny, clever, and serious eye-candy, and if you aren’t careful, you just might learn something.”

--TOM RICHMOND

Legendary MAD Magazine Illustrator

“Tony's one of the funniest guys I know, and this book will make him one of the funniest guys you know. I need more comics like this.”

--IVAN BRANDON

THE CANDY CANE THIEF

CLICK TO BUY CONTROPUSSY GN

Written by Emma Caulfield, and Camilla Rantsen. Art by Christian Meesey, letters by Thomas Mauer. Cover Art by Christian Meesey.

A modern cult classic from Emma Caulfield, the popular actress who portrayed Anya on Joss Whedon's BUFFY the Vampire Slayer, and co-writer Camilla Rantsen, comes Contropussy, a story about a cat with a major itch to scratch. By day she is a mild mannered feline, but by night she comes alive, adventuring in the city, eventually finding herself a pawn in political schemes. As subversive as the best Underground Comix of the 60’s but tapered with a sophisticated cosmopolitan flavor.

“This is a dangerous collection of brilliance and insanity. You are Not prepared.”

-Seth Green

“Stop thinking about how it has ‘Pussy’ in the title and just enjoy it.”

-Chris Hardwick

“Action…intrigue…beautiful, funny, moody art…and loaded with pussy jokes. What’s not to like? And I’m a dog person.”

-Tom Richmond

“What do cats do at night? This one smokes, sleeps with dogs and takes down whoremonger rabbits. Just like I’d always suspected.”

-Jane Espenson
