ASSASSINISTAS #1 writer Tini Howard

Octavia

artist Gilbert Hernandez colors Rob Davis cover Gilbert Hernandez (A) Sanford Greene (B/RI) Dominic Price and the Semester Abroad, Part 1 of 6 . Dominic Price is a college-age kid who just wants to spend the semester making out with his boyfriend, Taylor, in between rounds of TurboLight Fighter and maintaining a solidly passable 3.2 GPA. His mom, Octavia, formerly a badass actionmovie-quality bounty hunter, didn’t pay his tuition, because she had to get back in the business and spend 40K on black market weapons and body armor. And she’s bringing Dominic with her, because the alternative is making lattes for a semester, and he’d rather die. Good thing in mom’s line of work, dying is an option.

"I was mostly into hard rock bands as a teen in the 1970s and that carried through well into the 1980s, although I appreciated Prince and Michael Jackson as well as some of the other danceable music of the day. I had no interest in roller disco as disco was a disease to my ears except for the ELO/Olivia Newton-John collaboration Xanadu, which I felt was ELO at their peak period. So here I am drawing a comic featuring roller disco. Call it karma, I guess. The most important thing about the book to me is the characters, as with all comics I'm involved with." —Gilbert Hernandez, co-creator/artist, Eisner Hall of Fame Recipient

Gilbert

"We see the Assassinistas in two phases in their lives—the younger version of themselves, when they were mercenaries, which I describe as ‘Then’ and the older, settled-down versions of themselves years later, with kids and jobs, which I refer to as ‘Now-ish.’ Then is bright, wild, and (something I trust Gilbert to do so well) sexy, inspired by everything from Emma Peel to Foxy Brown to tales of the Go-Go’s on tour. As for Now-ish, it’s modern, cool, with bits of that same energy just desperate to sneak back into our characters’ lives. Our lead boys, Dominic and Taylor, are college kids, full of passion, emotion, frustration, and a search for purpose—which is often put off by the more immediate quest for video games and makeouts." —Tini Howard, co-creator/writer

cover Milt Gross and Friends Before “screwball” became a movie genre, it was a staple of other forms of American culture, including newspaper comic strips. Emerging from the pressures of a rapidly accelerating technological and information-drenched society, screwball comics offered a healthy dose of laughter and perspective. Comics scholar Paul C. Tumey traces the development of screwball as a genre in magazine cartoons and newspaper comics, presenting the lives and work of around two dozen cartoonists, with an art-stuffed chapter on each. Screwball offers a wealth of previously un-reprinted comics, unleashing fresh views of some of America’s greatest and most-loved cartoonists, such as George Herriman (Krazy Kat), E.C. Segar (creator of Popeye), Winsor McCay (Dreams of the Rarebit Fiend), Rube Goldberg (The Inventions of Professor Lucifer G. Butts, A.K.) and Bill Holman (Smokey Stover). In addition, readers will be delighted to discover previously “lost” screwball masters, including Gene Ahern (The Squirrel Cage), Gus Mager (Sherlocko the HC Monk), Milt Gross (Count Screwloose), George Swanson ($alesman $am), and many others.
