Volume 2 Heading to Stores!
After the overwhelming success of the debut graphic novel, Dynamite Entertainment and Dan Wickline are pleased to welcome fans back to the erotic adventures of Karma.
This September we’ll see this exciting love story continue and what happens as everything around them starts to change. Writer Dan Wickline (Grimm Fairy Tales, The Freeze) pulls inspiration from his own experiences as a professional photographer to continue this provocative drama. He’s joined by the beautiful art of Carlos Reno, who stunned fans with his work on the first volume. Superstar artist Stjepan Šejic painted the stunning cover.
While the first graphic novel introduced us to the stunningly beautiful Karma, a supermodel looking to expand her brand, and Alex, a professional photographer that specializes in product advertising, and showed us how they came together, that is only the beginning. Now the two have to turn that magical spark into a relationship in the midst of things changing all around them. Alex is gutted when the magazine he works for is bought out, but finds himself being pulled into a completely different direction. Meanwhile, Karma has to deal with someone close to her possibly leaving. And all of this gets upended even more when a child actor turned pop icon gets involved in their lives. Can this brand-new relationship survive all of this outside pressure?
This new volume deals with the real pressures a relationship must endure while growing, but also includes the wild, erotic adventures that Karma finds herself in, from a BDSM shoot, to a wild industry party to an intimate and sexy trip to get ice cream. The passion and adventure that drew these two together gets ramped up even higher in this new story.
“Finding love is only the first step,” said writer Dan Wickline. “Two people coming together is a very intimate and personal thing, but once the rest of the world finds out, a whole new kind of pressure gets added and we get to see how the new couple will handle it. Sometimes life has its own plans for you.”
Karma follows in the footsteps of hit erotic graphic novels such as Sunstone, Swing, and an extensive legacy by way of Wally Wood, Frank Thorne, Eros Comix, and more. Fans of Dynamite’s Bettie Page comics, and of course the legend’s real life racy modelling and photography, will enjoy this similar tale.
The book will be available in comic book specialty stores and book stores as a paperback, hardcover, or a limited signed edition by writer Dan Wickline.
