Las Vegas, the city of sin, vice, and bright lights is about to explode in the new BOMB QUEEN vs. BLACKLIGHT 1-SHOT! Coming hot on the heels of the red-hot BOMB QUEEN mini-series, this over-the-top satire is written by SCOTT WHERLE (Blacklight) and illustrated by Bomb Queen's JIMMIE ROBINSON with colors by JASON EMBURY.
This pyrotechnic one shot opens on Bomb Queen and Blacklight finding themselves in Las Vegas for conventions (a weapons convention and a comic con, respectively). The girls come to odds over the Intimidator, a weapon so deadly it's the only one of its kind and that's when the "catfight" ensues.
Shadowline founder Jim Valentino says, "We wanted to see what happens when Shadowline's resident good girl, Blacklight, faces down Bomb Queen, whose mini-series placed her at the top spot for baddest woman in comics. Scott and Jimmie found a story that will have everyone howling, and begging for more."
Fortunately even more Bomb Queen is on the way with BOMB QUEEN: WMD (WOMAN OF MASS DESTRUCTION) shipping in July and a second BOMB QUEEN miniseries coming out on the heels of this one shot.
Valentino warns, "Reports we get is that stores have not been able to keep Bomb Queen in stock and with a cover like that, forget about it, it's gonna fly off the shelves!"
BOMB QUEEN vs. BLACKLIGHT 1-SHOT is a full color 28 page book selling for $3.50 at braver comics shops everywhere this August.
