Snipe File – A New Comic From Kathryn And Stuart Immonen
Written by Kathryn Immonen, drawn by Stuart Immonen, Snipe was a limited edition comic-stroke-art object limited to 100 editions and sold at comic conventions.
It has now been released as a ComiXology Submit title for $1.99.

Just in case it passed you by… Snipe.
