The Legend of Ninkasi: Rise of Craft signing was a success! Things were signed! Beer was consumed! The word was spread about a radical, hilarious, beheading-filled beer comic! Thanks to @darkhorsecomics for having me! And thanks to Jamie and Nikos for being amazing collaborators on this project—they really let me cut loose!

My first signing as a writer. Definitely a moment!

DARK HORSE COMICS AND NINKASI BREWING COMPANY LAUNCH PARTNERSHIP

Written by Jim Gibbons (CORPUS: A Comic Anthology of Bodily Ailments) with art by Eduardo Francisco (Aliens: Defiance), Legend of Ninkasi: Rise of Craft will be available for purchase at NinkasiCon next spring along with a beer featured in the comic. In Legend of Ninkasi: Rise of Craft, the citizens of the medieval kingdom of Eugenia subsist in a listless stupor because the evil King Blüdweisen is holding them hostage. He’s outlawed craft beer and serves only his terrible-tasting, mass-produced brew. Sensing some corruption of the spirit of beer, Ninkasi, the Sumerian goddess of fermentation, and her faithful companion Tricerahops travel through time and space to investigate these dark portents. There they meet two brewers who they inspire to rebellion—a rebellion against horrible beer . . . and zombie vikings!

Really psyched I can finally talk about this! It was a TON of fun to write and I think beer and comics fans are gonna love it!
