It’s preview time at BF and this time around we have a neat sneak peek at next week’s issue of Deadweights #5 from the ever delightful Ahoy Comics below. Let’s also point you once again to that BF Ahoy Comics interview from last year because it’s so good that, frankly, you can’t read it too many times.
On Wednesday August 7, acclaimed Syracuse-based comic book publisher AHOY Comics will publish DEADWEIGHTS #5, the latest issue of the buddy comedy about two unlucky henchmen trying to make their way in the world from writer Tyrone Finch (Swine, Station 19) and artist Sebastián Píriz (We Ride Titans). The comedic, action-filled six-issue series follows two members of a villainous team of evil mutants who are fired for their incompetence and try to go straight—but learn that life doesn’t get easier just because you’re wearing pants instead of tights. Each issue will feature a main cover by Piriz as well as a “mug shot” incentive cover by Richard Pace (Second Coming), which will form a linked image.
