Skullkickers Meets The Sixth Gun This Week

If you picked up the latest issue of Oni Press\’ The Sixth Gun this week you may have noticed a surprising ad for our very own monster mashy series in the back.

Cross-company promotion like this is rare in the comic biz, but both creative teams are enjoying each other\’s series and felt that the audiences were quite compatible, so we set up an ad swap to see if we could cross-pollinate interest between readers. Skullkickers #7, arriving late May and kicking off our second story arc, will likewise have an Oni Press Sixth Gun ad in the back. Creator owned comics are all in the same boat and we\’re looking for every edge we can get in this market.

If you haven\’t picked up The Sixth Gun, you really should do so. Like SK, TSG recently released their first trade paperback so it\’s easy to get caught up. The Sixth Gun is a wild west fantasy-fueled adventure series with monsters, magic items and mayhem that\’s garnered fantastic reviews and goodwill from pros and fans alike. If you like Skullkickers, you\’ll almost certainly enjoy the Sixth Gun too. Read it, and tell \’em we sent ya. 🙂
