AHOY Comics is a new publishing venture from satirist Hart Seely, who had the vision to publish comics in a magazine format, surrounding by other material. In addition to tradition back-ups, there will also be prose (including some by Grant Morrison), poetry (written by Seely himself), and cartoons by Shannon Wheeler in each issue. With talent like Jamal Igle and Tom Peyer on board, the first issues are in the process of launching right now.

We’re thrilled to bring you an exclusive look at the AHOY offerings for January. Also, if you happen to be at NYCC this week, you can check out the AHOY panel:
