With IWTC<\/em> artist Benjamin Dewey<\/strong><\/a>! Paul & Ben will be signing the special SDCC advance edition of their new graphic novel, I Was The Cat <\/strong><\/a>(general release August 6, 2014). With limited supplies of sweet-ass giveaway material!<\/p>\n

Allison Breaking is a talented journalist with her own blog and a lot of bills to pay, so when she receives an offer from a mysterious stranger named Burma to write his memoirs, it’s an offer she can’t refuse, not even with all the red flags popping up. But Burma is quite literally unlike any man Allison’s ever known – because he’s a cat. And this cat has stories to tell about how he (over the course of a few lifetimes) has shaped the world – and another, darker story that Allison must risk all to uncover… a story of what this particular cat has been doing with the LAST of his nine lives.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Nearly 30 years ago, Dark Horse rewrote the rules of licensed comics with the release of\u00c2\u00a0Aliens<\/em>, continuing the story lines of Ridley Scott’s iconic film franchise.\u00c2\u00a0Predator<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0and the iconic crossover\u00c2\u00a0Aliens Vs. Predator<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0followed, with each series practically outselling the last. Now, the publisher partners with Scott again, to bring sci-fi epic\u00c2\u00a0Prometheus<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0to comics.
