“Garry Leach and myself created Monster Massacre for those who wanted their comics less ‘grim and gritty’ and more ‘sexy fun and crazy adventure,’ says creator Dave Elliott. “Whether you like your action-packed comics high-brow or low-brow, we’ve got you covered!”

Monster Massacre Vol. 1 comes with a special wraparound cover by Garry Leach (2000AD, Marvelman, Global Frequency, A1) and Sunny Gho (Superior, Ultimate Avengers, Stellar Labs).

The series will also be available to read day and date on the iPad, iPhone, Web, Android, and Kindle Fire, exclusively through the comiXology app and comiXology.com
