Next week IDW and Top Shelf Productions will release F.A.R.M. SYSTEM, the latest project from creator award-winning comic book creator and graphic novelist Rich Koslowski.
In the Farm System, having an incredible and unique power is only the first step. Guided by an army of agents, managers, and experts, recruits must undergo rigorous psychological evaluations, harassment and sensitivity seminars, marketing, endorsement workshops, and costume design meetings, all to boost their chances of recruitment into an A-list superhero team.
These would-be superheroes are super-strong, but are they powerful enough for the big leagues? If superheroes were real, they’d be a lot like pro athletes. In this quirky graphic novel, go behind the scenes with all the heroes waiting for their big breaks.
Some recruits make “the Bigs”. Some have fleeting moments of glory, then lose it all. Some take “Blue Cowl” gigs as superpowered bodyguards for famous actors or powerful CEOs.
Some flounder in the System for years, never getting “the call”. And some find success by joining teams of a… less reputable ilk.
This book insightfully connects the fictional world of superhumans to the world of sports, show business, and even the comic book industry itself—all fields where the talented many compete desperately for a few precious slots.
F.A.R.M. SYSTEM is the perfect introduction to graphic novels for those folks who love superhero movies and shows but have never given the format a shot, fans of “The Boys”, Koslowski’s award-winning works, avid sports fans, and basically any bibliophile that loves a hilarious and action-packed page-turner.
