Dynamite announced several August releases at the Diamond Retailer Summit this weekend, highlighted by the launch of the mini-series Jennifer Blood: Born Again, penned by Steven Grant (2 Guns, The Punisher). Peter Milligan’s Terminal Hero, the new Bob’s Burgers comic, the revival of Captain Victory and a second Frank Thorne’s Red Sonja Art Edition will all release in August as well.
Jennifer Blood was created by Garth Ennis and artist Adriano Batista, and Dynamite recently released the trade paperback of Jennifer Blood Vol. 4. Art for the new miniseries will be done by Kewber Baal (Jennifer Blood, Chaos Campus) with covers by Stephen Segovia (Dark Wolverine, Reign in Hell).
“I don't play with other people's toys much anymore,” said Grant, “but Jennifer Blood was too juicy a prospect to pass up. As one of Garth's greatest creations, she was pure psychopulp, that's what I love about her, and the psychopulp is what we're going for as we bring her back from the precipice after she has lost everything, and give her a new focus, a new home and a new direction. She used to be crazy, with a thick veneer of sane hiding it. Now she's chillingly sane, but it's crazy-sane.“
Dynamite previously announced plans to revive Jack Kirby’s Captain Victory, penned by Joe Casey ; now it has announced Captain Victory and the Galactic Rangers #1 will launch in August. Issue #1 will include interior art by Jim Rugg and Ulises Farinas, with a cover by Nathan Fox.
