From Mattie Lubchansky, the acclaimed author of horror sensation Boys Weekend, comes Simplicity. A vibrant new graphic novel about a timid academic sent out from the walled dystopian security territory of New York City to investigate a cult in the wilds of the Catskill Mountains. For fans of dystopian sci-fi and horror including Bodies. This a strong LGBTQ+ entry into mind bending, generation spanning, storytelling.
But wait—there’s more!
Customers who preorder Simplicity at participating comic shops will receive a FREE and EXCLUSIVE one-shot comic set in the same world—Escape from Zillionaire Island!
For more on both of these stories and how they connect to each other, who better to explain than Lubchansky themself:
In Escape from Zillionaire Island, it’s the year 2081, and something has gone horribly wrong aboard the luxury billionaires-only space station Icaria, floating high above war-torn and climate-ravaged Earth. It’s up to IT Engineer Junior Class Petra Sturman and a crack team of its most disposable employees to suss out the problem before the Icaria falls out of the sky.
A fast-paced and fun one-shot comic, set in the world of Simplicity, that brings Mattie Lubchansky’s trademark blend of humor and horror to cult-like problems of capitalism.
Escape from Zillionaire Island is exclusive to customers that purchase Simplicity at their local comic shop. It cannot be purchased separately and will only be available at participating stores while supplies last.
Fans: We encourage you to reach out to your local comic shop and ask if they have a copy of Escape from Zillionaire Island to include with your preorder of Simplicity—on sale July 29th.
Retailers: If you are not already participating in this promo but would like to, reach out to your PRH Direct Market sales rep to see if Escape from Zillionaire Island is still available. Simplicity goes on FOC on June 30th.
