Stranded Starlets And Pulp Mayhem: Image Comics Announces ‘Tigress Island’

by Olly MacNamee

Writer Patrick Kindlon (Gehenna, Stringer) and “wild-man” artist EPHK (Harpy) are about to unleash a new five-issue series, Tigress Island, “a down-and-dirty, bare-knuckled blast of pulp mayhem” from Image Comics.

“On Tigress Island, a crew of washed-up starlets finds themselves snatched, shackled, and shipped to a jungle hellhole ruled by a vicious, velvet-gloved she-devil of a warden. The only shot at freedom? Band together, break their chains, and outrun betrayal lurking around every corner.

This all-new story promises readers a sweat-soaked cocktail of action and attitude, dripping with danger, double-crosses, and explosive payback.”

A fun old school/new school adventure, Kindlon said of the series:

“This one is for every reader who isn’t getting enough flavor in their weekly comics haul. From concept to characters to execution, Tigress Island is unapologetic fun. High craft. Lowbrow. Awesome.”

EPHK added:

“We set out to capture the soul of 80s and 90s sexploitation “straight-to-video” movie classics and somehow ended up with so much more. No one is ready for this!”
