I mentioned before, as this year is our 15 year anniversary, we are bringing back certain covers that have a special place in our readers’ hearts with some super limited alternate versions!
So… our first featured item for the month is something special. It is an advance preorder for the Stranger Con exclusive of our FANTASTIC FOUR #52 homage cover by Caanan White and Blond. FF #52 was the first appearance of Black Panther, so the second edition’s trade dress will feature Panther purple. And there will be only 52 copies of each!!! As you may remember there were two versions that replaced Sue Storm. One featured Morka Moa, which will be this StrangerCon edition. The Kickstarter version will feature Essessa! So you will want to get on that Kickstarter! See below!
SILVERS AND GOLDS
15 Silver Metal Editions of the Morka Moa variant are available on the dropdown for preorder. 10 more will be available on the Kickstarter along with 5 Gold Metals featuring Essessa. These will feature the original trade dress!
Caanan White’s Black Panther homage is not the only Caanan and Blond teamup we have cooking on the new Kickstarter, because their interiors are on the next volume of TALES OF ASUNDA as a highlight of the newest campaign! This is an oversized issue at 32 pages for NIOBE: She Tribe and it is one of the most beautiful and audacious Niobe tales we have ever done! Co-Written by myself and legendary South African actress Thuso Mbedu (The Woman King, Underground Railroad, Castlevania).
More on that next week, just know we have 4 beautiful new comics that include the aforementioned TALES OF ASUNDA Volume 2 #1 NIOBE: She Tribe, TALES OF ASUNDA Volume 2 #2 The Disciple, MORKA MOA #4, and the last chance to get a Kickstarter exclusive of TALES OF ASUNDA Volume 1 #4 Mother’s Hands by Tehani Farr. Cover artists will include Tehani, Jae Lee, Richard Thornsberry, Ivan Tao and more!
See you this Thursday for a celebration of Black History Month and our 15th anniversary on Instagram Live at 6 PM PST / 9 PM EST or on our YouTube Live HERE.
