Roy #1 Preview

 

This looks fun! Although I'm a little worried about the cows.  (Please folks: don't menace cows!)  Check out the debut of this upcoming series from Fantagraphics:   FANTAGRAPHICS PRESENTS THE NEWEST COLLABORATION FROM THE HERNANDEZ FAMILY: A BRILLIANT NEW COMIC FROM GILBERT AND NATALIA!

Fantagraphics is proud to announce we are publishing Roy #1, an uncanny new comic book series from Gilbert and Natalia Hernandez, on August 6th! The Hernandez family's role in the history of comics is undeniable. With Love and Rockets, Gilbert Hernandez, along with his younger brother Jaime (and occasionally his older brother, Mario) have pushed the boundaries of what comics can do. In Roy #1, the family's legacy expands, as Gilbert teams up with his daughter, Natalia! Fantagraphics very own VP, Eric Reynolds, had this to say: "Is there anything Roy can't do? Of course not, he's a comic book character, duh! In the hands of a master like Gilbert Hernandez, anything is possible, and Roy is the perfect vehicle for his limitless imagination. The Hernandezes are America's First Family of Comics, and that ROY #1 also welcomes Natalia Hernandez into the Love and Rockets fold makes the occasion extra special!" The first issue of Roy sees Gilbert’s mustached ball of positivity teaming up with the Little Stunt Boy to deal with Roy's arch nemesis — the Froat! Or, should we say: the Froats?!? They're multiplying, they’re wearing board shorts, they’re hopping, they’re popping. Roy has a plan, and that plan involves bringing in some for real Tier One Operators. Nuns!   Now, let's take a look inside:

 

Thanks to Fantagraphics for sharing this preview with us.
