Issues #1 and #2 of the popular comic series GROMMETS by Rick Remender, Brian Posehn, Brett Parson, and Moreno Dinisio have sold out once again.
The press release follows:
Media Release -- Issues #1 and #2 of the beloved Grommets by The New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender (Napalm Lullaby, Deadly Class, LOW), fan-favorite comedian and writer Brian Posehn (Rifters, Deadpool, The Mandalorian, Scotch McTiernan: Holiday Party), artistic powerhouse Brett Parson (Tank Girl), and colorist extraordinaire Moreno Dinisio (Black Science) have sold out yet again. Image Comics will rush both issues back to print this week in order to keep up with growing demand for the series.
The Grommets #2, second printing will feature brand new cover art by Parson.
Grommets takes readers on the '80s-infused journey of a young Rick who starts a new school and tries desperately to find his place amongst the cliques of foul-mouthed high schoolers of the Sacramento suburbs. Skateboarding provides him with an opportunity to make some 'cool' new friends—but he soon finds out that they may not be as 'cool' as he (or they!) first thought.
Perfect for fans of Freaks & Geeks and Dazed and Confused, Grommets is at once an authentic look at punk rock and skater culture and a snapshot of the generation that turned skating into a worldwide phenomenon. It's a heartfelt story that follows two friends from troubled homes as they navigate their damage in an era when no one cared.
Grommets #1, third printing (Lunar Code 0524IM931) and Grommets #2, second printing (Lunar Code 0424IM990) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, September 4.
Grommets #3 Cover A by Parson (Lunar Code 0524IM306) and Grommets #3 Cover B 1:10 copy incentive by Parson (Lunar Code 0524IM307) are available now at comic shops.
Grommets #4 Cover A by Brett Parson (Lunar Code 0624IM303) and Grommets #4 Cover B 1:10 copy incentive by Chuck BB (Lunar Code 0624IM304) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, August 28.
Grommets is also available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
Select praise for Grommets:
"Grommets captures the raw feeling of being an outcast kid in the 1980s, and why skateboarding became such a sacred salvation to a lucky few. The graphics, attitudes and language of that era are represented with a rare authenticity that will leave you wanting more." —Tony Hawk
"A truly unique tone in the marriage of script and art that is equal parts cartoonish and sincere to deliver some big laughs and surprising depths." —ComicBook.com
"Tackles a weird time in music and culture with the utmost integrity, hilarity, and passion to spare." —AIPT
"A humorous examination of the terrors of adolescence…and the euphoria of finally finding a close friend. Definitely a breezy, summer read." —Graphic Policy
"A heartwarming and visually wonderful look into a tiny slice of '80s nostalgia that will ring true for anyone who's experienced what it's like to find friendship in otherwise hostile environments." —Major Spoilers
"Will a younger generation get what I got out of Grommets #1? I could see doing for them what movies like Stand By Me that existed in a different time but told a story I wanted to be part of, because of the characters it created and the story it told. At the end of the day, a good story is a good story, and so far this is shaping up to be just that." —Nerd Initiative
