by Olly MacNamee
The erotic sci-fi comedy series Money Shot returns with a new series, Money Shot: Big Bang, and comedian/writer/actor Patton Oswald is co-writing along with writer and co-creator Tim Seeley (Local Man, Hack/Slash), webcomics creator and artist Garth Graham (A Polycule of Mars, Astroknots) colourist Kurt Michael Russell and letterer Crank!.
Money Shot: Big Bang will debut with a zero issue in January 2025 that will act as a recap on everything that’s happened so far in Money Shot, while also setting the stage for the hilarious new series the following month with the publication of Money Shot Big Bang #1 in February 2025.
Here’s the series synopsis:
“You ever see that second Ewoks movie? The one where they suddenly kill off all the characters from the first movie?! And you were like “Mommy! Whyyy oh god whyyy?” Well, this new MONEY SHOT arc is like that with a lot less body hair , somewhat more sex, and the same amount of people yelling for mommy. The XXX-plorers return just in time to witness the rise of an anti-sex death cult! Now it’s a race against time and the relay team includes alien strippers! All new artist Garth Graham joins OG writer Tim Seeley, and actual real funny person PATTON OSWALT!”
Speaking of the series, Seeley stated:
“Money Shot has always been about finding the right partners. Lots of partners. Friends. Strangers. Aliens with a dozen or so sex organs. And even beloved comedians and acclaimed webcomics artists! So, with BIG BANG, I’m positively throbbing to work with my friend and collaborator Patton Oswalt, and burning hot new (to print comics) talent, Garth Graham!”
Oswalt added:
“By being insanely over-the-top and on the outer rim of offensiveness, Money Shot actually lands squarely in the center of our current, deviant reality.”
Graham concluded:
“I came across Money Shot when Kurt Michael Russell was coloring the first couple of volumes and I remember being both delighted and surprised that ‘mainstream comics were getting so cheeky. Everything from a publisher is mainstream when you’re in webcomics, you see. So when Vault reached out, saying that Tim Seeley named me when asked what artist he wanted to work with most, I knew that the only appropriate answer was ‘oh god, yes!’ Money Shot is exactly the kind of funny, sexy comic that lives right in my wheelhouse. A perfect fit.”
Money Shot: Big Bang #0 will hit store shelves on January 15th, 2025, to be followed up by Money Shot: Bing Bang #1 on February 12th, 2025. from Vault Comics.
