ARON WARNER PUBLISHES PARIAH WITH
DARK
HORSE COMICS!
Academy
Award winner produces
webcomic-to-print
series!
JANUARY 15, MILWAUKIE, OR—As
announced at Comic-Con International 2013, Aron Warner, the Academy Award–winning producer of
Shrek, is bringing his acclaimed webcomic Pariah to Dark Horse
Comics!
Pariah is cowritten by Aron Warner and Philip Gelatt
(Petrograd), with artwork by Eisner-nominated painter Brett Weldele
(The Surrogates). Volume 1, which collects the webcomic, is available in
bookstores everywhere today.
In
Pariah, genetically engineered geniuses known as vitros are labeled a
terrorist cell after an explosion at a military weapons lab. The vitros are
rounded up and left on a decrepit satellite orbiting Earth. Now they must band
together and use their supergenius abilities to get back to Earth
safely.
Pariah will also see a brand-new, eight-issue
miniseries beginning next month!
Praise for Aron Warner’s
Pariah:
“A
group of hyper-intelligent teenagers called vitros suddenly find themselves
hunted by a society that has marginalized them . . . I was hooked by the fifth
page.”—Fanboy
Comics
“It
does have a lot of potential and ironically enough much of the story is about
untapped potential of highly intelligent teens being ostracized for, well, being
smarties.”—Comic
Bastards
“A good
read. The art is great, plain and simple.”—Eat
Geek Play
Pariah #1, the first issue of the new print
series, will be on comic shop shelves on February 26, 2014!
