Emma Kubert and Rusty Gladd Launch Inkblot From Image Comics

Emma Kubert, granddaughter of Joe Kubert, has been working steadily for DC Comics on DC Super Hero Girls, Teen Titans Go! and Raven, but is now launching her creator-owned series Inkblot with writer Rusty Gladd, launching from Image Comics in September.

Inkblot follows a powerful sorceress attempting to correct her greatest mistake—the creation of a magical cat that can travel through time, space, and reality. The cat threatens to unravel the fabric of the universe, doesn't care, and just won't listen!

"I've been working on Inkblot since I was a student at the Kubert school (about four years in the making). Growing up, I always thought comics were all about masculine super men, which wasn't quite relatable, so I turned to the world of fantasy, like Harry Potter, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer," said Emma Kubert. "I loved the fantasy genre so much that I knew one day, I'd have to forge a world of my own. The creation of Inkblot was an extremely collaborative effort between Rusty and I. We both work in the same studio, talking about plots, checking each other's work, and making sure everything fits seamlessly together. We each use our strengths to create our magically fun comic and epic fantasy world!"

Gladd added: "Expect the fabric of the universe to be held in judgement by a cat—a cat which can conjure any reality and travel through time, but is nevertheless a cat. Emma and I work as a team to put each stitch into the tapestry of Inkblot. Readers can expect the cat to behave erratically, to accomplish the absurd, and to be just as vindictive as it is cute and cuddly. It will lead others on adventures, save those in peril, and play with its food."

Inkblot #1 by Emma Kubert and Rusy Gladd will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, September 2nd.
