Cliff Bleszinski has a long history in the gaming industry, beginning at the age of 11. He will be working alongside writer Alex de Campi, known for works such as Dracula, Motherf**Ker! and Parasocial, as well as artist Sandy Jarrell, who has worked on titles such as Bombshells and Lynx. The trio have teamed up for Scrapper, a six-issue sci-fi miniseries comic book that will be published by Image Comics.
Scrapper promises to be a heartwarming tale that combines action-packed sci-fi with emotional depth. The story follows a stray dog named "Scrapper" and his friend "Tank" as they fight against the oppressive forces of a post-apocalyptic domed city. When the battle comes to Scrapper's home, he faces the prospect of losing what's most important to him while also uncovering a terrifying truth.
According to Bleszinski, Scrapper is inspired by the loss of his beloved Australian Shepherd Teddy and the subsequent love he found with his Pomsky Lady.
Co-writer Alex de Campi emphasizes that this story is perfect for pet lovers and those who have ever wanted to pet the dog in a video game.
Scrapper #1 is set to hit comic book stores on Wednesday, July 19th. The series will feature three different covers, which you can find below, along with some of the interior pages from the first issue!
Scrapper will also be available through various digital platforms such as Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
About The Author:
ComicBookMovie.com and Best Little Sites was the brainchild of Nate and a friend way back in 2002. Nate initially focused on the back-end programming and front-end design, but now manages the company and its associated sites as well, with a LOT of help from some very talented contributors.
Nate has loved comics from a very young age and continues to read them on a regular basis thanks to subscriptions to various titles (both Marvel and DC). He also loves movies, as his wife and children will attest. He's not overly critical of movies, so his reviews should be taken with a grain of salt as he's much more interested in being entertained and escaping the "real" world for a couple of hours than finding every conceivable plot-hole and character flaw in a film.
Outside of his guilty "nerdy" pleasures, Nate enjoys spending time with his wife and three boys, CrossFit, playing guitar, coaching youth sports and MMA (he spent a couple of years in the cage as an NHB fighter, but is now MUCH too old).
