QUARTER KILLER is a New ComiXology Original Cyberpunk Mini-Series
ComiXology has announced a new comic mini-series called Quarter Killer. The 5-issue cyberpunk series comes from co-writers Vita Ayala and Danny Lore, artist Jamie Jones, and letterer Ryan Ferrier with themes “related to community, identity, and morality. Quarter Killer is about being more than what people have decided you are, about choosing your family, and living by your own code” according to Ayala.
“Meet Quentin Kidd AKA QK, an ex-corporate computer hacker who offers their services to those willing to pay them with old skool currency, specifically quarters, because quarters are untraceable. QK only has two rules: they don’t work for criminals or police, and no killing.”
Ayala further describes the origin of Quarter Killer in a press release:
“Quarter Killer started with the concept of Robin Hood in the hood, but cyberpunk and brown. When not working, QK tends to help solve problems around the hood, and help their friends keep out of trouble.”
Lore added:
“We are inhabiting a world which is all about Queer Brown Cool, and creating cyberpunk and Afrofuturistic worlds full of fun and energy. Jamie Jones was a natural fit to illustrate Quarter Killer. Jamie has developed a fun, rich, energetic world. His art reflects the cyberfunk hustle and flow of these characters, for pages that never feel stale or forced.”
Quarter Killer #1 joins the line of comiXology Originals and will be available on September 25 to Amazon Prime, Kindle Unlimited, and comiXology Unlimited members as well as anyone who purchases it. You can check out a preview below.
