I had the pleasure of having Eric Palicki come on to talk about his new book Atlantis Wasn’t Build for Tourists coming to us from Scout Comics on August 17th. That’s plenty of time for you to ask your local comic shop to make sure they have a copy for you. Or later, the everything going on in the world has been messing with release dates all over the place.

Atlantis Wasn’t Built for Tourists is best described Scout does it on their website, because I’m afraid of giving out spoilers.

> When a drifter stumbles upon a small town trapped between a corrupt sheriff and the bloodthirsty monsters lurking in the countryside, his quest for a hot meal takes a whole new turn.

If you want to read other things from Erik you can go check out All We Ever Wanted and Maybe Somday, (a pair of anthologies from A Wave Blue World) you can find a bunch of his stuff on Comixology, or you can check out Eric’s personal website or on Twitter @ericpalicki or Instagram conveniently also @ericpalicki.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
