Ian McGinty, former artist forĀ the Bravest Warriors comic book, will makeĀ his creator-owned debut withĀ Z2 Comics on Welcome to Showside; this exclusive cover for “The Third Eye,” illustrated by Kate Leth, will adorn the first issue in the series. Here’s how McGinty describes the story:

Kit is a fun-loving dude who wishes he didnā€™t have a care in the world. But as much as he wants to skateboard, eat rad food, and hang with his buds like any kid would, well, his father is the Shadow King, Ruler of the Nexus, and that means sometimes Kit and his friends have to defend the town of Showside from ghosts, demons and monsters.

As for Kit’s friends, they’re a sorceress-in-training named Moon and aĀ Southern demon-hunter named Belle.

In addition to debutingĀ this comic, McGinty has also begun production on an animated TV pilot forĀ Welcome to Showside, for which he’ll serve as both showrunner and the lead voice actor.
