Dynamite Entertainment has announced the September debuts of a new creator-owned title, Ex-Con, a gritty crime drama written by Duane Swierczynski (Deadpool, Judge Dredd) and the highly-anticipated Dawn vs. Vampirella crossover that will be both written and drawn by Dawn creator Joseph Michael Linsner.
Keith Burns will provide the art for Swierczynski’s Ex-Con, a period noir that takes place in L.A. in the 1980s and follows the criminal exploits of Cody Pomeray, a con man with a special ability to read the thoughts of his marks. But once Cody is jailed he is forced to seek the protection of a local crime boss, forming bonds of dependence that quickly ensnare him in a much bigger and more nefarious scheme.
Individual issues of Ex-Con will be priced at $2.99 to give fans the chance to affordably sample the series. Fan favorite artist Tim Bradstreet will provide covers for the new pulp-drenched crime comic.
First announced last October (see "Dynamite Announces Dawn/Vampirella Crossover"), the Dawn/Vampirella crossover simultaneously celebrates the 25th anniversary of Dawn and the 45th anniversary of Vampirella. The great news for fans is the Dawn creator Joseph Michael Linsner will both write and drawn the crossover series that features two of the sexiest heroines in comics.
