JUSTICE WARRIORS
I’m co-creating a new comic book series with artist Ben Clarkson out from Ahoy! Comics this summer. Justice Warriors is six issue mini-series of ultraviolet dystopian satire.
Outside the walls of prosperous Bubble City, two tense cops patrol the Uninhabited Zone, a vast slum where most of the population lives, many of them mutants. After his partner is killed by a self-driving bus, traumatized veteran Swamp Cop must teach naive rookie Schitt that the UZ can only be policed by breaking every rule!
Colored by Felipe Sobreiro, I am co-writing with artist Ben Clarkson as well as lettering and contributing backup features. Read a five page preview here!
REVIEWS
AITP Comics: “This is the type of comic that comes around once in a while and reminds you what the form can achieve.”
CBR: “A rich satirical tale of America's overconsumption and over-policing issues, where the elite conglomerates govern the many, wringing out people's wallets in a trickle-down economy.”
Graphic Policy: “A fantastic read that’ll have you laughing at the absurdity and then crying at the reality it skewers.”
Comics Beat: “sassy, surgical satire"
