David Liss Joins 215 Ink for Angelica Tomorrow


David Liss is a name that many comic book fans may be familiar with. He's put in work with Marvel on books such as Black Panter and Mystery Men, while also making his way as an accomplished fiction author. Turns out, he's got a lot more in mind and is teaming up with artist Allen Byrns for a new book called Angelica Tomorrow with 215 Ink. What's better is that the book is newly available on comixology.

"Allen and I have put together a series that, we believe, will appeal to a broad range of comics readers, but because it doesn't fit into established categories, it can be hard to find a publisher willing to put out a book like this," said Liss. "Angelica Tomorrow is the sort of cross-genre story that is perfect for an imprint like 215 Ink, which takes risks and tells different kinds of stories."

Angelica Tomorrow is a classic tale of teenage, paraplegic alcoholic meeting an amnesiac cyborg assassin. Three years ago, George Williams' life changed forever when a car accident left him paralyzed below the waist. Now, everything will change again after a nighttime encounter with deadly stranger who possesses incredible powers she cannot recall or understand. Only George knows that beneath the shell of the sweet and naïve girl lies a monster, but which is the real Angelica, and how long can George keep the killer hidden way? Pursued by ruthless spies, and a police officer seeking revenge, George and Angelica will find themselves tested in ways they never imagined.
