This issue: More of the SAME! What? The SAME?! Yes, the SAME level of over-the-top action-comedy, banter and monster-mashy goodness that’s made SKULLKICKERS a creator-owned hit. You want more than that? Okay, here goes: love potions, plant monsters, murdering fae folk and a dead ape. Buy it!

Pop culture blog Nerd City has a great little shout out about Skullkickers Vol. 1 posted up.
\”Skullkickers is an amazing book that combines D&D-esque action and themes with laugh out loud humor, hyper-stylish art and $#@%loads of onomatopoeia. If you love joking about slaying Orcs just as much as you love slaying Orcs, then this book’s for you.\”
