Going To The Dogs: Image Comics Announce New Sci-Fi Series ‘Scrapper’

Game designer Cliff Bleszinski (Gears of War, Fortnite) makes his comic book writing debut with co-writer Alex De Campi (Dracula, Motherf**Ker!, Parasocial) and artist Sandy Jarrell (Bombshells, Lynx) in new six-issue sci-fi canine-starring YA miniseries Scrapper.

“Science-Fiction-style action mixes with big emotions as stray dog Scrapper and his buddy Tank fight for justice against the totalitarian forces of a post-apocalyptic domed city. But when the fight comes to his home, Scrapper will face losing what’s most important to him—and gain a terrifying truth in the process.”

Here’s Bleszinski statement on the very personal inspiration behind this new book:

“Scrapper comes from the heart; first, the loss of my Aussie Teddy and then finding puppy love again with our Pomsky Lady. I truly hope everyone enjoys this deeply personal work.”

De Campi added:

“It’s been a joy to get back to full-bore, edge-of-your seat action writing in a monthly comic, even more so when I get to base it around such a wonderful cast of urban animals as we’ve created in Scrapper. If you have pets you love, or you’ve ever just wanted to pet the dog in a video game, this is the book for you.”

Billed as “Pride of Baghdad meets Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner in this action-packed Young Adult series filled with heart” Scrapper #1 will be available on Wednesday, July 19th from Image Comics with first look below:
