BubbleGun-03-cvrB-Reserved_eBasAspen MLT’s newest issue of Bubblegun hits stores next week, meeting the half way point of this stunning 5 issue series. They like the tech, but they still live for the high stakes, and oh are those stakes getting higher! This issue the team squares off against Craine and his cybernetic ninja assault squad, as Vitadrone’s deadly powerhouse brings the fight down upon their headquarters. Along the way, the team learns the tragic sacrifice that their line of work costs, including a pair of life or death choices for Molli and Roman.

Join creator and writer Mark Roslan (Broken Pieces), penciler Mike Bowden (World of Warcraft, Ame-Comi Girls), and colorist David Curiel (Idolized, Avenging Spider-Man) on Aspen¹s next hit sci-fi, action adventure series. Covering this crazy cyberpunk package is the artwork of several amazing artists and one of the variants is surely rather unique! Mike Bowden provides the standard A cover, in all its bubbly gun action, while Eric ‘eBas’ Basaldua draws an incredibly sexy Reserved Edition cover. Of course, that’s not all, with a sketch version of eBas’ cover as a retailer incentive and a convention variant! Aspen already had Italian artist Pasquale Qualano provide the San Diego Comic Con variant for Bubblegun, and now another Italian Aspen artist, Paolo Pantalena, has drawn the variant cover for Montreal Comic Con (a variant limited to only 200 copies, mind you!). Colorists for these covers are David Curiel on cover A, Peter Steigerwald on the Reserved Edition B cover, and Mirka Andolfo for Pantalena’s Montreal Comic Con variant. Yet there is one more cover to this comic that is highly limited to just 100 copies. Bubblegun #3 cover E is a special marriage edition drawn by the highly skilled artist, Talent Caldwell. But why is this a ‘marriage edition’? It not only celebrates the recent marriage of writer Mark Roslan to his new wife, Aurore, but it features both of them on the cover! Talk about a beautiful way to commemorate a wedding, and an awesome variant cover for collectors. You can get an early peek at all of the covers and the first 4 pages of Bubblegun #3 down below, as well as pick up your own copy when it hits stores Wednesday September 18th.
