Roger Langridge Takes Readers Through the Looking Glass as Never Before with KABOOM!'s Snarked!
ROGER LANGRIDGE'S SNARKED! #1
(AUG110930F, $3.99)
Creators: (W/A) Roger Langridge
Solicitation: FIRST ISSUE! Roger Langridge is back! The Harvey Award-winner behind The Muppet Show and Thor: The Mighty Avenger returns for an all-new, side-splitting adventure that can only be explained as... Snarked! Journey with Langridge as he pulls the carpet out from under such Lewis Carroll classics as "The Walrus and The Carpenter", "Through the Looking Glass", and "The Hunting of the Snark", creating an all-new world of humorous grandeur. Join Princess Scarlett as she and her baby brother Rusty outwit the villainous royal advisors and team up with the infamous Walrus and Carpenter to set sail in search of their father, the Red King, who has been lost at sea for six months. It's a rip-roaring industry event you won't want to miss, featuring must-have connecting covers by Roger Langridge and a special 1:10 Thor: The Mighty Avenger homage variant, by fan-favorite Chris Samnee!
Appeal: Already a Harvey Award-winning and respected voice of comics for some time now, Langridge's work on both The Muppet Show and Thor: The Mighty Avenger have once again earned him multiple Harvey Award nominations this year (Best Writer and Best New Series for Thor: The Mighty Avenger and Special Award for Humor in Comics for The Muppet Show). Likewise, retailers can once again put the creator's storytelling talents to work for their shop with Snarked!
The $1 introductory Roger Landgridge's Snarked! #0 (JUN110963F), nearly sold out as of this entry, should have helped introduce readers of all ages to this title and set the groundwork for sales for the debut issue. And if you were successful selling The Muppet Show to younger readers, be sure to point out that the same creator is behind this latest series.
