Aspen’s Fifth “10 for 10” Title Is The All New Series BubbleGun
Press Release
03-17-13
Aspen Comics has revealed more info on their June release in their
successful “10 for 10” anniversary initiative that has been met with both
critical and commercial success. For their fifth release on June 12th, Aspen will be debuting an
all-new cyber-punk action-adventure series, BubbleGun,
by creator and writer Mark Roslan (Broken
Pieces) with art by Mike Bowden (Worlds
of Warcraft) and David Curiel (Avenging
Spider-Man). The solicitation for BubbleGun
reads:
They like the tech, but live for the high stakes! Sisters Molli and
Devyn, along with teammates Roman and Kyo—and a stockpile of cutting edge,
cyber-punk technology, form a confident team of mercenary thieves able to take
on the most formidable jobs around. Yet, when one cyber heist turns out to be
more than they bargained for, as a mysterious package and its contents threaten
to unravel the group to its core, the menacing worlds of corrupt industry and
deadly espionage is unleashed upon them!
Roslan discusses the new series:
“It's very hard to put into words how
excited I am for BubbleGun's release
this summer. I've been working on the book for over two years now and I can't
wait for everyone to read it. I really wanted to make a comic book that had
that fun and high-energy storytelling that I grew up reading. BubbleGun follows a motley team of
characters in a action-adventure story that focuses on the them, but is set in
the future with a nice shiny sci-fi veneer to it: advanced robots,
hover-cycles, neon lights, and laser guns mixed into crazy high-tech escapades.
Mike Bowden and David Curiel are a brilliant art team and both are really
bringing a new level to their work with this series.”
As with all of Aspen’s “10 for 10” releases, the publisher will be
offering a host of incentives for retailers and fans alike, including the
extremely affordable price of only $1 for the first issue, BubbleGun#1. Aspen
will also be offering a special Aspen Reserved Edition cover for BubbleGun #1 featuring art by Bowden and
superstar colorist Peter Steigerwald. Fans who reserve BubbleGun #1 by adding it to their pullbox with their local
