Don’t get the dreaded comic book FOMO! There’s been an epidemic of new creator owned comics that are cool, inspired, and immediately impossible to find. The only way to guaruntee your copy is to pre-order from your comic book store NOW.
We’re having an incredible time bringing Ali to life, along with the Los Angeles Skate Clan, the legendary Seven Skaters, and a haunted skateboard. Skate Ali is a collision of urban fantasy, cyberpunk, skateboarding, coming of age, romance, magic, California, and ghosts. Kelly Sue and I have been working on this one for over fifteen years. Fifteen years! And now Ali is REAL. Thanks to our editor and Ali's godfather,
@nottoochabyy , who never let her die.
From Dark Horse’s press release: “Skate Ali is a high-octane, genre-smashing sci-fi skatepunk saga about friendship, rebellion, and finding yourself when the world wants to knock you down...welcome to near-future Los Angeles—a neon-scorched city where skateboarding has been ruthlessly outlawed. But nothing stops Skate Ali.
“When Ali slams headfirst into the infamous world of underground skateboarding, she comes face to face with a crew of outcast skaters called the LA Skull Clan, and their masked leader, Skull Queen 9. Fueled by a magical force called the Rush, the clan pulls off explosive moves and defiant acts of resistance.”
