IDW Publishing has announced a May launch for Cat Fight, from writer Andrew Wheeler and artist Ilias Kyriazis.
Here’s how IDW describes the book:
« Caught up in the glamor and excessive lifestyle of an international career criminal, Felix Lamarr lives only for the thrill of the next big score. Suddenly contacted by his estranged and wealthy grandmother, he is shocked to learn that she is a storied career criminal herself, the lithe and legendary burglar Kitty Midnight, and that she wants him to partner with her cat-themed associates on a lucrative upcoming heist. Unaccustomed to collaboration, Felix declines Kitty’s offer, but a shocking incident sends his life into a sudden, chaotic tailspin. Framed for murder and on the run from a mysterious syndicate, he leaps at full-throttle from one international hot spot to the next in a deadly game of cat and mouse! »
« I’m so excited for readers to escape into our world of glamorous adventure! Cat Fight is an action thriller about family and connection in an age of disconnection, a vacation from gray skies and ordinary lives, » Wheeler said. « The art team has done an incredible job bringing this breakneck ride to life. It’s John Wick meets Kill Bill meets…well, Cats! »
« The most exciting part of working on Cat Fight has been drawing breakneck, globe-trotting action sequences in collaboration with Avgo and Dennis Yatras, two incredibly talented Greek artists that I’ve had my eye on for some time now, » Kyriazis said. « Plus, I really do enjoy drawing cats, even though I suspect it may have made my own cat jealous. »
Cat Fight #1 will be available with covers by Kyriazis, Morgan Beem, Alex Moore, Veronica Fish, and Sweeney Boo.
