PORTLAND, Ore. 01/10/2025 — Image/Ghost Machine’s time-traveling adventure The Rocketfellers—by fan-favorite writers Peter J. Tomasi (Batman and Robin, Super Sons) and Francis Manapul (The Flash, Clear) with art by the Shuster Award and Inkwell Award winning Manapul and lettering by Rob Leigh—has sold out completely at the distributor. Both issue #1 and #2 of this exciting new series, set in Ghost Machine’s Family Odysseys universe, are being rushed back to print by Image this week in order to keep up with escalating demand.
In the picture-perfect 25th century, the Rocketfeller family—living a disconnected and emotionally-distant existence—discover a terrible secret: in their hands is the fate of humanity. Hunted down, the Rocketfellers enlist in the Time Zone Protection Program and escape to present-day Earth. If they can’t find a way to trust each other in this strange “ancient” world of today, they and our future will perish!
“Thank you to all the readers and retailers for embracing this book,” said Tomasi. “We’ve never been more excited about the future of this book and these characters!”
Manapul added: “This is just the beginning of an epic story. The Rocketfellers adventure gets even bigger and wilder with each issue!”
