Welcome to Showside marks the creator-owned debut of Bravest Warriors artist Ian McGinty — and the title kicks off the new fall periodical line from Z2 Comics. Welcome to Showside takes readers on the adventures of Kit, a lovable kid with a monstrous secret: his dad is the Great Shadow King and he wants Kit to take over the family business of destroying the world.
“Kit is a fun-loving dude who wishes he didn’t have a care in the world,” McGinty explained. “But as much as he wants to skateboard, eat rad food, and hang with his buds like any kid would, well, his father is the Shadow King, Ruler of the Nexus, and that means sometimes Kit and his friends have to defend the town of Showside from ghosts, demons and monsters.”
With best friends Moon, a sorceress-in-training, and Belle, the latest in a long line of Southern demon-hunters, Kit fights a plethora of Nexus demons — and finally stands up to his Dad.
Standard editions of the comic will be available in comic shops and online on October 28 through Z2 Comics.
