THIS SUMMER … START $#!&, GET BIT! Oni Press – the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997 – is proud to share the first lettered look inside SUPER MONDO MEGA MUTTS #1 (of 4), the blockbuster new series from powerhouse co-creators of Lost Fantasy, Curt Pires (Lost Fantasy, Fireborn) and Juan Gedeon (DC: The Jurassic League)! Kicking off with a colossally double-sized, 40-page milestone packed with first appearances, fur and fury this July, get ready as the 21st Century’s most raucously radical new team of anthropomorphic anti-heroes spring into action as they battle to save Los Angeles … and all of humanity!
“SUPER MONDO MEGA MUTTS is one of the most high-octane, accessible, and downright fun comics of my career thus far and I’m thrilled to be bringing it to life with Juan and the folks at Oni Press,” said Curt Pires. “Plus I’m selfishly excited to see Wolf, Frankee, Freddy, Griffy and Mojo-—all of whom are based on my real life family pets—reach the level of superstardom and international acclaim they deserve. Now they’ll be wanting the fancy kibble.”
One year ago, a fragment of an interdimensional civilization collided with Downtown L.A. – creating an impregnable no-man’s-land where the laws of physics no longer apply. Convinced that no human being could survive the terrain within, the US government’s most morally compromised contractors decided to explore the area codenamed “The Gleam” by sending in four research animals in the hopes of capturing its precious technological wonders. They were hoping to find a new kind of weapon. What they got instead was four radically transformed dogs with minds and a mission all their own. WOLF! FRANKEE! GRIFFY! FREDDY! Together with their brilliant mentor MOJO, the SUPER MONDO MEGA MUTTS are going to bring justice back to the avenues and alleyways where out-of-control federal forces and gangs powered-up by pilfered alien technology now reign. They thought they could put this band of outlaw misfits on a leash… Now the world is going to discover what happens when these mutts BITE BACK.
“On SUPER MONDO MEGA MUTTS I’m pushing the art to go from explosive and cute, grounded but cartoony,” said artist Juan Gedeon. “I wanted each character to have a clear shape and personality you can read instantly. I’m leaning into exaggerated action so every panel feels exciting.”
“This is a $400 million blockbuster told in 40 pages by two of the most gifted and driven creators rocketing through the industry today,” said Oni Press President & Publisher Hunter Gorinson. “Welding Curt’s blockbuster bombast to Juan’s explosively kinetic cartooning, this book isn’t just arriving in comic shops this July … It’s launching into them like a 10 megaton warhead. For anyone who loves comics, or loves dogs, or even better, loves comics about dogs that happen to be armed to the teeth and carrying an even bigger grudge, it’s chow time – come and get it!”
This summer, mutt up or shut up because SUPER MONDO MEGA MUTTS #1 (of 4) is going to take a bite out of comic shops worldwide on July 15th – complete with a killer pack of covers by series co-creator Juan Gedeon, alongside Alex Diotto (Indigo Children, A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts), Karl Kerschl (Gotham Academy), and David LaFuente (Ultimate Spider-Man)!
