Spy Island

ECCC Cancelled

Submitted by Chelsea on March 8, 2020 - 8:37pm

HEADS UP: Emerald City Comic Con has been cancelled. Like, several days ago, actually. I’m just only now getting around to updating my website. And honestly I don’t remember how to edit my events, so updating in the blog area instead. #OkayBoomer. Anyway, if, for some reason, you bought tickets to ECCC and are ONLY NOW hearing about this development - well you should really check your SPAM filter, because you should have gotten an email from ECCC. Also, you can get a refund! Google that. The convention is rescheduling (fingers crossed) for this summer. We’ll be there, if we can.

Oh! And also! Please - PRETTY PLEASE - pre-order a copy of SPY ISLAND from your local comic book store. (First issue comes out April 1, which sounds like a joke, but isn't.) Guessing our big SPY ISLAND ECCC launch might be complicated by the lack of an actual ECCC.

I will look into that whole “editing content” thing.

New project: SPY ISLAND

Submitted by Chelsea on January 20, 2020 - 10:36pm

My new comic book, SPY ISLAND, launches April 1. That sounds like an April Fool's Day joke, but it's not. It's going to be four issues. Published by Dark Horse. Same creative team as MAN-EATERS. Produced with my co-creator/co-conspirator, Lia Miternique, + Elise McCall, Rachelle Rosenberg, Joe Caramagna, plus a teen special guest or two.

Summary:

Nora Freud (no relation) is stationed on an island in the Bermuda Triangle because obviously it's in the interest of humanity to keep an eye on that shit.

If she can stay one step ahead of the island’s other spies, super villains, dimensional portals, tourists, and killer mermaids, she might just make it back to the mainland.

You can pre-order a copy at your local comic book store. If you are not sure if you have a local comic book store, Google “[INSERT THE NAME OF YOUR TOWN] local comic book store.” Comic book store retailers have to pay for the comic books they order, whether people buy them or not. So they love pre-orders. It helps them out a lot. And it helps us out a lot, too.

We can’t wait to share this project with you. Seriously.

P.S. We'll be at Emerald City Comic Con this year (March, 2020). We'll have advance issues of SPY ISLAND #1 (available nearly a month early!) as well as issues of MAN-EATERS #13 (pub date: March 4). So THAT'S neat.

If you're in the Seattle area, come say hi.
