Ride ‘Em Cowboy! ComiXology Announces Graphic Novel ‘Trick Pony’

ComiXology has announced an all-new digital-first graphic novel, Trick Pony, from GLAAD Award-nominated writer Greg Lockard (Liebestrasse), artist Anna David, letterer Lucas Gattoni and editor Will Dennis.

Arriving on February 28th, 2023 on Amazon’s Comixology Originals, here’s what this new book is all about:

“Together Lockard and David tell the emotional story of Jimmy Thomas, a gay rodeo star well past his prime. Jimmy is about to hit rock bottom when he receives an emergency call from his family alerting him that his father is in the hospital. Jimmy decides to head home with his trusty best friend, his horse Emmylou. While on the road he must confront the mistakes of his past, the monsters of his present, and come to terms with his life and future.”

Speaking about this new graphic novel, Lockard said:

“Trick Pony is a project that has been germinating in my head and heart for over a decade. It’s a love letter to all my favorite Western stories but through a distinctly modern lens. Jimmy’s adventure is about self-fulfillment on the path to making your dreams come true… and accepting that some shadows are going to follow you for life.

Trick Pony is a story I think all readers can relate to. At the core, it’s about the choices we make, who we become, and where we end up.”
