TV Show-inspired “SuperMansion” comic series slated for release
Titan Comics announced that they are bringing SuperMansion TV Show to the comic book shelves via an all-new comic series. Based on the Emmy award nominated Crackle TV Show the series will be written by Barry Hutchison (The Beano) with art by Jake Elphick (Twisted Dark)
For release on 8 March 2017 to coincide with the TV show’s return, this brand-new comic book series is based on the stop-motion superhero animated comedy series from Stoopid Buddy Stoodios. Since premiering on Crackle, the series has captured audiences with its playful, yet acerbic commentary on the superhero genre.
SuperMansion follows the adventures of Titanium Rex as he struggles to live with and fight alongside the Millennial-aged, often lackadaisical members of The League of Freedom.
Synopsis on Titan Comics’ SuperMansion #1 reads:
After a battle with the evil Psy-Clone and his army of identical clones, the League is exhausted. Unfortunately, crime never rests, and they are immediately called to another emergency. Rather than rush off, though, they realise they can use Psy-Clone’s cloning machine to make duplicates of themselves and send them into battle instead. The clones turn evil and start running riot, and when Black Saturn reveals he has spent years developing ways in which to kill the rest of the League in case they ever go rogue, a horrified Rex kicks him off the team. The League is jailed, and it’s only when Black Saturn proves his loyalty by breaking in to free them that they find a way to defeat the evil clones once and for all!
Titan Comics’ brand-new SuperMansion #1 comes with six spectacular variant covers to collect from top industry artists including Jake Elphick, Juan N. Cabal (Wolverines), Fernando Leon (Tales of the TMNT), Zak Simmonds-Hurn (Kung Fu Panda), Matt Hebb (Home), and a photo variant.
