PLB Comics Announces Exclusive Cover for Baltimore Comic-Con

PLB Comics will be in Baltimore for Baltimore Comic-Con. They'll be showcasing their work, hoping to make an impression on eager young convention goers. Part of that showcase will be an exclusive variant cover of Gideon and Sebastian: Predators and Prey #2 for only $3.

The series follows the exploits of Father Gideon West, a grizzled Vampire-hunting priest who is haunted by a horrific past, and Sebastian, a happy-go-lucky Vampire bitten in his prime who has volunteered to help the Vatican exterminate the Vampire menace. This odd couple rip through vampires while constantly taking jabs at one another, all the while harboring a grudging respect for each other.

The book is presented in an anthology style, with a collection of indie artists all giving their own unique perspective to the characters. Josh and Mathew Shockley, Nikkol Jelenic, Nathan Milliner and James Dufendach have all lent their creative talents to this issue.
