Coming to bookstores everywhere in September 2024 from BOOM! Studios who announced today that CURSED PIRATE GIRL: MALODIOUS MUTINY HC, a special collected hardcover more than a decade in the making, the hotly anticipated, beloved swashbuckling saga featuring the unique and unparalleled art and storytelling of Jeremy Bastian returns in a perennial collection of classic material, along with brand new art.
Cursed Pirate Girl, the beloved cult series, launched in 2012 with the story of young Apollonia, daughter of the governor of Port Elizabeth, who meets the enigmatic, no-nonsense Cursed Pirate Girl, a wandering adventurer on a quest to find her lost father, a dreaded pirate captain of the Omerta Seas. Since then, Cursed Pirate Girl’s wild and thrilling adventures have continued in the Cursed Pirate Girl graphic novel and special issue Cursed Pirate Girl 2015 Annual, garnering widespread acclaim for their intricately detailed illustrations evocative of Arthur Rackham and Gustave Dore’s fairy tale depictions.
The fiery Cursed Pirate Girl’s journey continues as she searches for her father, one of the captains of the dreaded Omerta Seas. Cursed Pirate Girl’s loyal companion Pepper Dice reveals that there’s still time to bring back her father, the Dread Pirate Captain Douglas! If she can escape the Sea King’s Palace with The Bright Star, will she be bold enough to enter The Devil’s Cave in the hope of bringing her father back? Or will the Devil Jonah and his minions stop her? The classic fantasy by Jeremy A. Bastian combines a keen sense of story and the unique art style reminiscent of 15th century engravings, making this a book not to miss.
CURSED PIRATE GIRL: MALODIOUS MUTINY HC will be available in comic shops September 18, 2024 and available in bookstores everywhere September 24, 2024. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers, including Kindle, iBooks, and Google Play.
