TONAWANDA, NY (March 8, 2019): Writer-artist Graham Nolan, acclaimed for his Batman run for DC Comics, as well as co-creating the Bat-villain Bane, is setting course for a return trip to MONSTER ISLAND!
Nolan is again teaming with Ominous Press to present RETURN TO MONSTER ISLAND, a sequel graphic novel to his signature series MONSTER ISLAND. The original MONSTER ISLAND was brought back by Ominous Press in a lavish, oversize hardcover Creator Edition, shot from the original art and filled with extra content featuring art by comics legends including Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez, Lee Weeks, and many more. Debuting on Kickstarter on March 12, which is Graham Nolan’s birthday, RETURN TO MONSTER ISLAND tells the long-awaited story of Navy pilots Duke and Mac once again visiting a mysterious island that is home to strange and dangerous creatures from across the galaxy.
“I’ve always dreamed of telling more stories about Monster Island, and now thanks to Ominous Press and the support of our Kickstarter backers, I’m getting the opportunity,” Nolan said. “I’m having the time of my life revisiting these characters, especially the monsters!”
RETURN TO MONSTER ISLAND will launch on Kickstarter on Tuesday, March 12. If successfully funded, the story will be published as a full-color 96-page hardcover, written and drawn by Graham Nolan. As a special companion volume, Ominous Press will also be offering a new, hardcover edition of the original MONSTER ISLAND graphic novel, for the first time printing the entire story in full color!
Graham Nolan and Ominous Press are offering up an exclusive preview of RETURN TO MONSTER ISLAND, revealing the eight-page preview story that kicks off all the action. Join Duke and Mac as they learn Monster Island has reappeared, forcing them back to the locale of their greatest adventure. It’s time to RETURN TO MONSTER ISLAND.
