Webcomic Looking For Group Comes To Dynamite
The webcomic series Looking For Group is going to be released as an ongoing comic series by Dynamite Entertainment. The series, written by Ryan Sohmer and illustrated by Lar deSouza, Hawk, Ryan Dunlavey and Ed Ryzowski will include strips from the very beginning along with bonus scenes from Non-Playable Character and Tiny Dick Adventures. The first issue will be released with covers by Ty Templeton and Becky Dreisdadt.
Looking For Group follows the adventures of Cale'Anon the elf and Richard the undead warlock, as well as their companions, through Fantasy, Pop Culture, and Gaming tropes, set in a reality and time unlike our own. It's a place where the eating of small children is not necessarily frowned upon; where beings of extraordinary power can destroy entire villages with only "because I could" as an excuse; where magic and adventure are as commonplace as setting fire to, and then reanimating, a chipmunk into a skeletal minion (it happens more than you'd think); and an epic journey can begin by an accident of fate.
Since its launch on November 26, 2006, Looking For Group has garnered significant media and industry attention and won the 2008 Shuster Award for "Outstanding Canadian Web Comics Creators." The webcomic is read by millions online every week, along with its two spinoff comics Non-Playable Character and Tiny Dick Adventures, both of which launched to rave reviews in 2014.
Looking For Group #1 will be solicited in the February 2015 Previews catalog and slated for release in April.
