Based on the story Monkey of Oz by Liam Browne and Daryl Cox, this beautiful cover was done by Oisin Roche. Its been a hectic few weeks for us here at Lightning Strike so we’d like to think everyone for their unending support, in particular, @FPDublin @SubCitycomics & @TheBigBang_ (who you can all follow on Twitter) so sharing our poster’s in their shops and to ICN and Comic Buzz for posting about the cover.
We’ve also got some more news regarding this summer’s conventions, which you can read about by clicking here.
