CAPTAIN GINGER : THE LAST FEEDER #1 (Stuart Moore / June Brigman)

Le Capitaine Ginger et son équipage seront prochainement de retour chez Ahoy Comics pour une mini-série en deux numéros intitulée The Last Feeder.

As part of AHOY Comics’ fifth anniversary, writer Stuart Moore and artist June Brigman are teaming up again for a two-issue AHOY anniversary special, Captain Ginger: The Last Feeder, a new chapter in the sci-fi epic about cats in space.

The latest installment finds Captain Ginger and his crew scattered across a thousand light-years, facing the twin mysteries of the Captain’s long-missing fathe – and the final fate of the human race.

« I’d rather write Captain Ginger than anything else in the world, so I’m grateful to AHOY for giving us the chance to continue our story, » Moore said. "This time, we decided to tell a self-contained, Strange New Worlds-type adventure that, at the same time, tackles some of the biggest questions in the Captain’s universe. All his life, Ginger has wondered about his father, and all the evolved cats have wondered about the long-dead humans who created them. Now the answers are in their grasp – maybe.

« As always, June Brigman and Roy Richardson tackled this with all the feline love and knowledge any cat-lover could ask for. We were lucky enough to snag the legendary Walter Simonson for a cat-tastic variant. And never fear, dog lovers. We’ve got you covered too!. »

« It’s always nice to come home to Captain Ginger, » said Brigman said « Honestly, it’s a lot like my home, but with ray guns and spaceships. »
