Image Comics Announces Tyler Kirkham’s ‘Final Boss’ – A New Ongoing Series Based On ’80s Action Heroes And Arcade Games
by Olly MacNamee
Tyler Kirkham (Amazing Spider-Man, Green Lantern) and Image Comics have announced a new high-octane action series, Final Boss based on his love of ’80s action heroes and arcade games. Here’s the hype:
“Prepare for an over-the-top adventure that’s a high-octane nod to classic action stories. Trying to forge a new path, Tommy Brazen uses his newfound powers for various paid enforcer gigs and street fights, only to uncover a past far more complex than he ever imagined.”
Talking of the inspiration behind the series, Kirkham said:
“Final Boss is a culmination of everything I loved growing up as an ’80s and ’90s kid. From the fan-favorite action heroes and beat ’em up arcade games to the groundbreaking energy of early Image comics. It’s a no-holds-barred nostalgic action adventure!”
