Just because I've always liked that
Decoder Ring Theater offered the adventures of
The Red Panda (and sassy sidekick
The Flying Squirrel) in formats other than comic books, doesn't mean that the news of a
Red Panda comic book isn't welcomed with a fair bit of excitement over at TSOG HQ.
The following was posted on the
Decoder Ring Theater Facebook page earlier today.
Coming soon to a digital comic store near you! "Mask of the Red Panda", a 3-issue mini-series of pulse-pounding pulp perfection featuring the Terrific Twosome of Toronto! Written by Gregg Taylor, Art by Dean Kotz, published by Monkeybrain Comics. Here's your very first sneak peek!
Coolness. If you're unfamiliar with Kotz, you can sample his work on
deviantart and
his blog. As for Monkeybrain Comics, their website is
here and their books can be purchased from
comiXology.
This is welcome news indeed! I just discovered DRT in January of this year and have devoured both the audio and prose adventures of the Red Panda and Flying Squirrel (as well as Black Jack Justice). Red Panda comics are a natural fit and have been a long time coming, I say.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to take the time to get into BBJ but I really should. I love that noir stuff.
