Do A Powerbomb is stepping back into the spotlight with a bold new presentation. The Eisner Award-winning series from Daniel Warren Johnson will be re-released in a black-and-white format that highlights the artist’s original line work.
Image Comics will publish the new edition across three issues, beginning this July. The format strips the story down to its visual core, offering a fresh way to experience the fan-favorite title.
A Showcase for Original Art
The first issue, Do A Powerbomb Black and White #1, will include a selection of collectible variant covers created by Johnson. The release focuses on the raw pen-and-ink artwork that defined the book’s original creation.
“Do A Powerbomb was the essence of a labor of love, and it all started with simple pen and ink,” Johnson said. “I’m proud to present this story in its very first iteration, in full black and white. What an honor to have this book back on the stands!”
A High-Stakes Wrestling Story
The story follows Lona Steelrose, an aspiring pro wrestler trying to step out of her mother’s shadow. Her mother is widely considered the best in the business.
Lona’s life shifts when a wrestling-obsessed necromancer invites her to compete in the greatest pro-wrestling tournament ever staged. The opportunity comes with a catch. The tournament is also the most dangerous.
Do A Powerbomb Black and White #1 arrives Wednesday, July 8. It will be available in comic book shops and on digital platforms.
