ComiXology Announces “Funny Creek” - Multiversity Comics

Via IGN, comiXology have announced “Funny Creek,” a five-issue limited series written by Rafael Albuquerque and Rafael Scavone, with art by Eduardo Medeiros. Set in 1985, the book follows Lilly and Andy, two kids who bond over their love of the titular Wild West-themed cartoon. After a terrible tragedy, Lilly becomes trapped within the world of Funny Creek, where “her cartoon hero, the Sheriff Clumsy, shows himself in a darker light than she expected.” The creative team also includes colorist Priscilla Tramontano, letterer Bernardo Brice, and editor Bis Stringer Horne.

Albuquerque and Scavone told IGN, “‘Funny Creek’ is a very dear project that we’ve been planning for years with Eduardo Medeiros, our longtime friend and partner in the Stout Club. In many ways, it’s a story about friendship. It’s also a story about growing up in a culture that idolizes violence, a place we all have been as children. It’s a very special project for the three of us, a story we believe needs to be told. So, it’s a pleasure to have it as our debut title on comiXology and Kindle across the globe.”

“We’ve wanted to collaborate in a new project for a long time and finally decided on a book aimed for young readers, which is not our comfort zone at all,” Albuquerque added. “While brainstorming ideas, heavy subjects kept coming to our minds, and we decided that we should not avoid, but embrace them — figuring out how an 8-year old kid would deal with things like loss, guilt and grief. That was the path where we found something unique and interesting for both young and mature audiences.”

“Funny Creek” #1 will released on Tuesday, August 4, with subsequent issues releasing weekly. It will be offered in both English and Portuguese, and you can read a preview now at IGN. Like all comiXology Originals, “Funny Creek” is available for free to subscribers of comiXology Unlimited, Kindle Unlimited and Prime Reading, and will also be available for purchase in print from Amazon.com.
