COMING IN 2020!
A fusion of crime, war, jungle, romance, horror and science fiction comic book genres, Pinko Joe stars… Joe. He’s a troubled wage-slave from another planet turned police officer and Socialist crusader. In other words, he’s someone just like you and me?
We follow Joe across 240 pages as he battles gun-toting corporate raiders through a fictional 3rd term of an Eisenhower administration. Joe crashes cars, beats on capitalists, and dallies with ladies – but just as he’s winning the struggle against the nascent military-industrial complex, the Ultra-Capitalist arrives! This arch-villain future man has weapons and business models that are ten times more advanced, and eleven times more deadly!
Humorous political resistance in 4-color form, Pinko Joe is the new graphic novel by Christopher Sperandio (Fantagraphics Books, DC Comics) and is press-ready. It will make the perfect gift for that left-leaning socialist in your life!
In addition to the main story, there are some funny side-features, such as “Lil’ Trumpy” – a scamp who only speaks in Presidential tweets! Check out this spoiler-free sample!
