NEW BOOK! In one week, you can read the first issue of “Nice Jewish Boys”, an original Jewish suburban crime comic by me, John Broglia, Ellie Wright and Sarah Litt via @comixology Originals!

“A lower stakes Jewish Sopranos", the five issue mini-series is about Jake Levin, a Modern Orthodox Jew in Teaneck New Jersey, struggling to pay his bills, who gets drawn into a triangle of secrets when he moonlights for his best friend -- a kosher "caterer-turned-criminal" who's wanted by the FBI thanks to their other friend , a failed entrepreneur-turned-informant.

Brotherhood, bar mitzvahs & betrayal in New Jersey.

ABOUT THE BOOK Years ago, a boxing champion named Mammoth was exiled and imprisoned. Now, a decade later, he’s ready to return to the family, title and country he’d left behind…though all have passed him by. But before he can return, Mammoth has to escape. And every escape has a story. This, then, is the beginning of that story. Kings and Canvas, an original boxing fantasy tale, explores the lengths a man will go to find purpose after life, liberty and career have passed him by. “Game of Thrones meets Rocky Balboa”—but with sea dwarves, pirate referees and talking, boxing dragons—Kings and Canvas journeys across the frontier of a changed America in which honor is gained not by using guns or swords, but rather fists, wits and the courage to change. It’s a world in which man, beast and champion stride battlefields and either raise their gloves in triumph…or taste canvas in bitter defeat.

Thanks for your support—pledge using this link, reblog this post and and let's keep it going!!!

“The Phoenix Chase” Sends Kid Omega After the Powers of the Phoenix Force

Aconyte Books and Marvel Comics’ “School of X” line has a new novel coming out. The Phoenix Chase hails from Neil Kleid.

“Kid Omega’s latest scheme to set up his own mutant school goes horribly awry when mysterious aliens called the Remaining kidnap his “students,” demanding a rare Phoenix Egg—source of the awesome Phoenix Force—in exchange for their lives. Wildly out of his depth, Kid Omega turns to Cyclops for help. He gets a ride with space pirates the Starjammers, and someone more responsible: Cyclops’ brother Alex “Havok” Summers. Their mission: rescue the students, recover the Egg, save the day. But it won’t be easy. Galaxy-hopping sleuthing, heists, and action lead the X-Men to clues that reveal a monstrous plot using the Phoenix Egg to ultimately conquer the universe.” (Marvel Comics)

The Phoenix Chase: A School of X Novel goes on sale on May 16, 2023.

Judas Priest: Screaming for Vengeance graphic novel — out on January 25th!

Hey Neil, what’d you work on while you going through chemo for Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in 2021?

Well, I teamed with @rantzclutter, @christophermitten, Dee Cunnife and Z2 Comics to create an original #graphicnovel based on the album Screaming For Vengeance by heavy metal icons #JudasPriest, releasing to comic book shops in TWO WEEKS, on January 25th. You can still preorder it NOW HERE. It’s going to be glorious.

The #Hellion rises in comic shops 2 WEEKS from today, #comicbook and #heavymetal fans! Experience a sci-fi tale that’s been called by some as “#Moebius meets #Deadwood."

500 years from now, a ring of cities will orbit high above the surface of a dead world, controlled by a ruling elite that maintains power through manipulation and brutality. When a naïve engineer inadvertently threatens the status quo with his vital scientific discovery… A BLOODSTONE... he is betrayed by those he trusted and cast out to the broken planet below. In the wreckage and desolation of a broken world where every day is a battle for survival, he must choose between accepting his new life in exile… or SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE.

The day I launched a book during a massive insurrection.

I know we're all thinking about what happened two years ago...

...the release of Savor by me, John Broglia and Frank Reynoso from Dark Horse Comics! You can still buy and read our young adult culinary adventure graphic novel, a book I wrote for my now daughter about an adventuring chef who must face five deadly restaurants, assemble the ultimate knife, and defeat a band of pirate cooks to save her island and the woman she loves.

Warrior chef Savor Batonnet has returned home, to the island of Earth's Oven, after years away. When she learns that a crew of demonic pirate cooks has captured both the island and her family, Savor has to take on her very first quest as a newly minted hero! But are being called a hero and a handful of skills all the ingredients she needs to face five deadly restaurants, forge the world's most powerful knife, save both her parents and the woman she loves?

PROTIP: Never launch a book on the day our nation's capital comes under attack. Just sayin'.

Thanks for checking it out!
