COSPLAYER VERSUS SHARK #1 (ONE SHOT)

Cosplayer! Versus Shark #1 is a brisk, self-aware mashup of pop culture, cosplay and pulp horror. When a beloved comic creator is devoured by a massive shark, a band of cosplayers teams up with a washed-up TV superhero to hunt the killer. Pat Jankiewicz, a Saturn Award-nominated writer and actor, crafts a zippy, playful narrative that leans into fan-centric humor without losing momentum. Shaun Spanky Piela handles the art and covers with kinetic energy, delivering bold character moments, splashy action, and sharp visual gags across 48 pages of color. This one-shot introduces a cheeky premise with a clear, self-contained arc, making it easy to pick up without prior issues while hinting at the world’s playful possibilities. A lively blend of genre homage, clever dialogue, and uproarious set pieces, it’s ideal for readers who love comic-book humor, spectacle, and inventive mash-ups.
