Last Chance to Preview Thumbs from Image Comics Before FOC

Published Fri, 10 May 2019 15:46:07 -0500

Image Comics has sent out a last chance preview of Thumbs, the new cyberpunk comic series from Sean Lewis and Hayden Sherman, before final order cutoff on Monday. Bleeding Cool Rumourmonger-in-Chief Rich Johnston listed the comic in his Thank FOC it's Friday column earlier today, noting that it is part of a "No Risk" promotion from Image, meaning it's fully returnable. The preview wasn't available then though, so now you have a second last chance to consider ordering it.

Check out the press release and preview below, and get your orders in by Monday or literally the entire comics industry will collapse. Look, it's a fragile system.

Thumbs #1 hits stores on June 5th.

PORTLAND, OR 05/10/2019 — Image Comics is pleased to reveal a first look at the highly anticipated new cyberpunk adventure series Thumbs, by award winning playwright and comics writer Sean Lewis (Coyotes, Saints, The Few) teams up with award winning artist Hayden Sherman (The Few).

The break-neck paced technology thriller is a must-read book perfect for readers of Christopher Sebela, Ro Stein, and Ted Brandt's 2019 Eisner nominated series Crowded or the buzzworthy Netflix phenomenon, Black Mirror. Thumbs #1 hits stores on Wednesday, June 5 and boasts a total of 40 pages per issue.

Imagine someone like, say, Mark Zuckerberg created his own army of tech-obsessed teens and directed them to take on the government. What would the fall-out be? Thumbs explores a high-stakes world where that—and much worse—can unfold. Charley "Thumbs" Fellows is a member of just such an army. Poor and raised by the influential MOM™ app, he finds himself in the center of a war.

Thumbs #1 (Diamond Code APR190011) will be available on Wednesday, June 5. The final order cutoff deadline for comics retailers is this Monday, May 13.

Thumbs #1 will also be available for purchase across many digital platforms, including the official Image Comics iOS app, Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, comiXology, and Google Play.
