GlobalComix is proud to announce, in partnership with TPub, that Amputation Capital #1 is now available to read for free, only on GlobalComix. We've worked closely with TPub to ensure the best reading experience possible for the digital version of this new horror comedy, and we can't wait to see the feedback from readers.
Co-created by Raymond Tyler and Neil Gibson, Amputation Capital features stunning art from Andre Rizzo. You can read issue #1 right now, with additional issues coming out every other week until all five are online. To coincide with this, TPub will be running a Kickstarter project to fund the trade paperback edition.
"I couldn't have had more fun making this book with Neil and Andre,” said Raymond Tyler. “Previously working as a marketing influencer sparked this idea—the satire of professional managerial class and celebrity exploitation, about how we play certain roles in society and how those roles are unnatural ways to make ourselves more marketable. In Amputation Capital, characters aren’t just buying and selling ‘products’, they are the product.”
"TPub was one of the earliest adopters of GlobalComix, and has been an incredible partner since," said Christopher Carter, CEO and Founder of GlobalComix. "To have the opportunity to contribute to the launch of Amputation Capital is humbling and speaks to the faith Ray and his team have in GlobalComix. We can't wait to see how fans react to this unique entry into TPub's catalog."
When we were given the opportunity to work with TPub on this, we knew that the most important thing to focus on was optimizing the series for digital consumption. That meant ensuring that the lettering was clean and easy to read on all types of devices.
To accomplish that, GlobalComix's own @ArtCrumbs stepped up and helped re-letter the entire series. This was their first lettering project, and they knocked it out of the park.
"I had to read over it before lettering, and I simply could not put Amputation down. I had to read every issue before I could even work on it," said ArtCrumbs, Associate Community & Production Representative at GlobalComix. "It's that awesome of a bloody, dirty, and excitingly good read! I'm super thrilled to have gotten to work on a story that I enjoyed so much!"
You can read Amputation Capital #1 right now. Make sure to follow TPub here on GlobalComix for new release notifications, and head over to Kickstarter to sign up to be notified when the campaign starts.
