Cat-astrophe In Space? Preview Captain Ginger #1 From Stuart Moore, June Brigman & AHOY Comics
by Olly MacNamee
In Captain Ginger #1, from AHOY Comics, we are given a sci-fi scenario in which cats inherited the Earth. Well, not quite, bit it wasn’t no damn dirty apes as I had been led to believe by the talkies.
Written by Stuart Moore with art by June Brigman, inks by Roy Richardson and colours by Veronica Gandini, Captain Ginger #1 is out October 17th, but we’ve been given an early preview which you can curl up and cuddle with.
Like The Wrong Earth, this looks to be lots of fun, with additional content too from Grant Morrison and Phil Hester. That’s one roster of talent right there.
When the human race died out, the cats inherited the Earth! Or at least one starship. Now the intrepid Captain Ginger struggles to keep his fellow felines united against a hostile universe. But there’s a rival for Ginger’s authority: his second-in-command, the savage Sergeant Mittens! Thirty-five pages of comic adventure—with a bite—created by writer Stuart Moore (Deadpool the Duck, Batman: Noir Alley) and artist June Brigman (Power Pack, Star Wars novels).
