DEVIL'S DUE PUBLISHING

Following are Devil's Due Publishing's solicitations for February, with informaton coming from the publisher.

D3 TITLES

PENGUIN BROS. -- DIGEST

Written, art and cover by Josh Blaylock.

For the first time in almost a decade, the Pengiun Bros. return. Three teenage penguins living in Chill City, Antarctica are the ones chosen to become their city's heroes, and granted Super Powers. There's only one problem - they'd rather go to concerts, hang with girlfriends, and play video games. Self-published by Josh Blaylock in the mid nineties, "PB" was a small press success across conventions nationwide, but never received main-stream exposure. Includes issues 1-3, the never-before-printed issue 4, and an all new 8-page story and cover by Josh Blaylock. It's sleigh cars, super powers and homework in the Penguin Bros. TPB.

144 pages, black and white, $10.95.
