Spy Comics Presents the Invincibles #3: Ready for July 1 Release!

Special to DFG ONLINE!

Word is just in from DFG corporate head office that Spy Comics Presents the Invincibles #3 is in press and due for release, July 1, 2008! Co-publisher Dan Graves noted, "We realize the issue #2 was released a bit late, but we're happy to say that #3, the summer issue, is on track!" Mr. Graves also noted that #4, the fall issue should be available about mid-September. Issue #3 features part three of the "Battle of the Invincibles" and co-stars Holden and Bates, Glow Girl, and the Grim Avenger as they attempt to stop the assassination of Norbert J. Jangle, the mayor of Carnage City (and the former villain, the Jester), at the hands of Captain Nepto and his renegade band of heroes.

"We're especially happy that the cover is a collaboration by DFG founders Dan Graves and Darryl Andrews," said DFG production manager, Frank Daniels. "When Captain Nepto Prime changed directions and was set at an earlier period of Cap's career, the original cover proposed for issue one of Prime, by Darryl Andrews, proved to be unusable, as the costume worn by Cap is from a later period of his career, and therefore anachronistic. However, Dan designed a cover for Spy Comics Presents... that incorporates Darryl's Nepto/Jester picture quite nicely. We're very pleased with the results."

The current story arc is set to run through Issue #5 (the winter issue).

Story and art by Dan Graves, colouring by Flora Lovartalot. Cover by Graves, Andrews, and Lovartalot.
