On behalf of everyone at Citizen Press, thank you all for joining us these last couple of months.  We hope these weekly previews have piqued your interest and have you eagerly anticipating the release of JOHNNY REPEAT in September. 

And if you’re just joining us, not to worry.  Previous sneak peak installments of JOHNNY REPEAT can still be found below.

Read them, relive them, pass the revolution on to your friends.

JOHNNY REPEAT is a 104-page black and white graphic novel with a cover price of $12.95 USD.  Available for pre-order in the July edition of Previews (Page 248, JUL063025), the book will arrive in stores September 2006.

I’m going underground for the next couple weeks to recharge my batteries and get the revolution back in order.  But when I return, look for news regarding launch parties, signing schedules, and more coming in September.

Take care, CITIZENS!

CITIZENS!  San Diego Comic-Con 2006 has come and gone and I need a serious nap.  But first, Citizen Press presents the penultimate chapter in its weekly series of sneak previews with “HOMELESS” (1.60 MB) by Jason James and another of our Brazilian exports, Bruno D’Angelo (Prey).

Jeronimus Stormcrow.  Is he the fabled dragonslayer he says he is?  A bum who’s played a game of Dungeons & Dragons too many?  Or something else entirely??? 

And just why does he say F@$% all the time?  The answer made me giggle more than once.

Past sneak peak installments of JOHNNY REPEAT can still be read below.

JOHNNY REPEAT GRABS THE FOURTH RAIL’S ATTENTION

Wednesday, July 5th, 2006

CITIZENS!  In his monthly “Down The Line” feature looking at the Previews offering for September, Randy Lander at thefourthrail.com gives a generous nod to JOHNNY REPEAT:

JOHNNY REPEAT looks like a hard book to describe.  It’s been tagged ‘cosmic noir’ by the publisher, and the sprawling cast of characters and time travel elements make that sound about right…. Color me very intrigued by the possiblities, and predicting this as a possible sleeper hit.”

I’ll take that kind of talk from Mr. Lander any day.  If you’re interested in reading his full list of September picks, you can find the complete article here.

JOHNNY REPEAT is a 104-page black-and-white graphic novel with a cover price of $12.95 USD, and can be found in the July issue of Previews out now (Page 248, JUL063025)! 

Pre-orders are due July 15th, CITIZENS.

DIAMOND ADDS TO ITS PRAISE OF JOHNNY REPEAT

Wednesday, July 5th, 2006

CITIZENS!  In addition to deeming JOHNNY REPEAT “Certified Cool” in their July edition of Previews, Robert Randle over at Diamond Comic Distributors says, “JOHNNY REPEAT is one of the freshest new titles I’ve seen all year.  It’s slick, clever and extremely hip.”

A Brand Manager and one of JOHNNY REPEAT’s earliest champions, Robert adds in his monthly Staff Picks write-up:

“You read it once to get a taste for the mystery — and the little joys of discovery it affords you — then you read it again, and again, each time learning something new; each time getting an additional level of enjoyment out of the book.”

Thanks for the love, Rob.  You can check out the full article here.

JOHNNY REPEAT - PREVIEW (5 OF 8)

Monday, July 3rd, 2006

CITIZENS!  Before we head off to the BBQ pits and singe ourselves with the sparklers, Citizen Press proudly presents “CAST AWAY” (1.43 MB) as part of our weekly JOHNNY REPEAT sneak peaks.  Written by Jason James and illustrated by rising star Mark Dos Santos (Western Tales of Terror), this chapter begins to unravel the mystery that is The Woman with No Name.

 

 

 

 

 

She knew Voltaire and Dom Perignon.  She belonged to an ancient and storied family of assassins.  And she’s spent the last 50 years hanging out with a whacked out Frenchman on a deserted island.  Confused?  Senses overloaded?  Pay attention, CITIZENS!  This chapter is one of my personal favorites.

Only three more weeks to go, CITIZENS!  And for those of you just joining us, the four previous installments can still be read below.
