Here’s something great for your Thursday afternoon — remember “Body Bags?” Jason Pearson’s creator-owned book featuring Clownface and Panda and a whole lot of mayhem? We haven’t seen it a long time outside of an Image release of the second trade last December (containing the 12-Guage stories), and Pearson himself hasn’t done too much in comics due to some personal issues.
Well, as revealed on Jason Pearson’s Facebook (with a hat tip to Robot 6), “Body Bags” and Pearson are back, and this is something to get very excited about. Pearson’s book was fast-paced, quirky, hilarious and action packed, and Pearson’s artwork is incredibly vibrant. It’s a book like no other, really, with a character relationship that pre-dates Millar’s Big Daddy/Hit-Girl in terms of family-to-violence ratio, so if you’re a fan of books like “Kick-Ass” and are looking to see what real comic carnage can look like, check out this cover for the “Body Bags” One-Shot:
Yeah. Exactly.
Pearson will be coloring this new volume of the series himself, and while a home for it hasn’t been released it shouldn’t matter — you’re going to want to pick it up regardless.
Find the first two trades of “Body Bags” from Image in stores now and get stoked.
