/BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA #1
(W) Eric Powell (A) Brian Churilla
WHY WE LOVE IT: BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA is one of our favorite cult-classic films because it mashed together '80s action and supernatural fantasy movies with '70s kung-fu flicks. This is the first time any new BIG TROUBLE stories have been told, and we have the film's original directer, John Carpenter, working with Eric Powell (THE GOON) on the story. You can't beat that!
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: Eric Powell is a huge fan of BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA, so the sense of humor and over-the-top action he brings to THE GOON will be all over this book. Plus, Brian Churilla's (THE SIXTH GUN) art on this perfectly captures the outrageous world of BIG TROUBLE.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Jack Burton, a macho, truck-driving adventurer, finds a stowaway hiding on his rig, "The Pork Chop Express", but that soon becomes the least of his troubles. He helped his best friend Wang save his fiancée from the clutches of a demon, but now the wedding has been invaded by more evil forces with one thing on their minds-revenge against Jack Burton!
One of the all time greatest things to ever be put on film returns in the form of a John Carpenter overseen, Eric Powell written comicbook with astounding art from Brian Churilla!! Picking up directly from the events of the movie, Jack Burton is once again drawn into a supernatural plot of deviously diabolical depths that threatens the happiness of his friend's lives once more!! I am beyond excited to see this universe continue (in any form) and with Eric Powell at the helm, you know it's gonna be goofy, violent, but above all--FUN!!
