Top Cow Announces A Free Comic Book Day First
Ah, Free Comic Book Day. The day when you can head out to your favorite comic shops and get a bunch of free comics. It’s beautiful. Usually these issues are reprints, FCBD special editions, or preview issues, but Top Cow Productions is doing an FCBD first by releasing the full first issue of their new ongoing series, Aphrodite IX, on Free Comic Book Day this May. That’s pretty cool of them. Let’s hope the series is a good read.
Here’s the solicitation for Aphrodite IX #1, thanks to iFanboy:
Aphrodite IX #1
Written by Matt HawkinsPainted by Stjepan SejicFC 32ppSCIENCE FICTION/FANTASYA FREE COMIC BOOK DAY FIRST! Aphrodite IX #1 will be part of FCBD history as the “free first issue will be the actual 1st issue of the new ongoing series with the 2nd issue shipping in June. Top Cow’s fan favorite green haired heroine finally gets her own ongoing title. Waking up in the distant future, Aphrodite finds herself in a vastly changed world where the air isn’t breathable and she doesn’t recognize the various factions vying for supremacy. Navigating her own fragmented mind while attempting to re-integrate into society proves difficult when she is identified as a notoriously brutal assassin…but has no memory of ever killing anyone. Writer Matt Hawkins (Think Tank) has scoured the futurist blogs and books to create a plausible but fantastic world with painter Stjepan Sejic (Witchblade, Artifacts) who promise to deliver a science fiction epic unlike anything ever witnessed before!
