A luchador’s road to glory is a path fraught with danger…
Bear witness to the further exploits of La Mariposa in this collection of stories as the purple powerhouse meets a mystery atop a mighty mesa, battles a bloodsucking beast in a beleaguered barnyard, subdues a sweet-smelling skeleton and more! Also featuring a thrilling tale from the archives of the Sons of Justice!
Writer and artist James Lawrence continues his brilliant La Mariposa series with his latest Kickstarter for The Climb and Other Stories. Lawrence’s all-ages luchador series has been one of the most entertaining creations to arrive on the small press / crowdfunded comics scene in the last ten years. Perfectly capturing the modern, bright look of kids’ animation, expressive, fun characters and the crazed theatrics of wrestling and the near-myth status of Mexican Luchadors, along with questing vibe of video games, Lawrence has crafted a series that adults can secretly read again, right after they’ve finished reading them to their kids!
The climb is an action-packed 124 pages, collecting in colour for the first time all the stories created during The Demon Gauntlet webcomic era! Not only this, but James has taken the opportunity to collect a host of other stories that were originally created for other publications, making The Climb your junior comic completists’ dream book! There’s only a few days left to go on the Kickstarter, so don’t miss your chance to help La Mariposa: The Climb and Other Stories become a reality! This is an amazing collection of work from one of the self publishing comics community’s leading creators. You can find out more and back the book right here.
