AMIGO COMICS preview new releases for 2017

EDITOR’S NOTE:  One of our new objectives for 2017 is to give more space to some of the smaller publishers that deserve more attention. We’ve had our eye on Spanish publisher AMIGO COMICS for some time.  They recently shared their publishing plans for early 2017 with us.  Read on, from their press release . . . . . . . .

Rogues vol 3: Hearts and Tombs TP 

Writer: El Torres
Artist: Juan José Ryp, Diego Galindo
Cover Artist: Juan Carlos Ruiz Burgos
ISBN Code: 9788416486199-51999
STL000933

Every story has a beginning... and this is how Bram and Weasel met for the very first time! The original tale featuring art by maestro Juan José Ryp, remastered, where our rogues have to fight an angry fire god — and get into a forsaken crypt full of gods also.

Includes the full stories "The Burning Heart" and "The Crypt of the Rotten Gods". INCLUDING the "gone missing in the Atlantic during transport" issues!!

"When you have this creative combination it's hard to produce a bad issue. I mean Ryp alone is worth a five, but the fact that the story is entertaining and well-plotted and the coloring adds to Ryp's artwork makes this one of the best titles out this week. The great part is, you don't need to have read any of the other Rogues! volumes to enjoy it."
