PETER PANZERFAUST #1 TAKES FLIGHT

PETER PANZERFAUST #1 Sells Out, Gets New Printing

PETER PANZERFAUST #1, the debut of the new Image Comics series that merges Peter Pan with a World War II adventure story, has sold out after being released in stores on February 14. It will immediately return to press for a second printing (JAN128112) due in stores the same day as PETER PANZERFAUST #2 (JAN120599), March 14.

In the first issue of this new ongoing series by Kurtis Wiebe (GREEN WAKE) and Tyler Jenkins, French orphans in Calais, a French city that has been heavily bombed by the Germans, encounter a charismatic American soldier. Inspired by his esprit, the boys find themselves trusting him with their lives - and learning that they can perform feats they would have never thought possible.

Comics reviewers have widely praised the debut:

“Peter Panzerfaust can only promise more action and intrigue amidst a magical story time backdrop on a monthly basis. Here, lost boys do indeed live forever.”
- JP Fallavollita, Biff Bam Pop

“Peter Panzerfaust captures the magic of Peter Pan and transports it into a story of brotherhood during war. Not only is Kurtis J. Wiebe’s story a great introduction to his new project, but Tyler Jenkins’ art masterfully brings that tale to life.”
- Jason Clyma, Broken Frontier

“Pick of the Week. If you’re looking for a jaunty boys adventure book with a vintage feel, but modern sensibilities, I can think of nothing on the comic shelves that will fill the need better than Peter Panzerfaust. “
- Josh Flanagan, iFanboy

PETER PANZERFAUST is a monthly, full-color comic book series published under Image Comics’ Shadowline imprint, available in comic book stores and multiple digital outlets.
