Wise Wizard Games announced the launch of Wacky Wizard Games, a new brand imprint focused on family-friendly, lightweight games. Three games are planned for release in 2024 as part of this new brand imprint: Star Realms Academy, Caution Signs, and Pack the Essentials. If you are interested and attending PAX Unplugged they will have prototypes of Caution Signs and Pack the Essentials. "We are super excited to be adding this new family friendly product line to our catalog. We wanted to maintain the focus of Wise Wizard Games on strategy card and dice games with geeky themes, and have created Wacky Wizard Games as an umbrella for lightweight games with a more whimsical, cute vibe," shared Debbie Moynihan, COO of Wise Wizard Games. Star Realms Academy Forge your own star realms, overloaded with cuteness! A kid friendly but still fun for grown-ups version of the popular Star Realms deckbuilding game for 2 players. A little less math, no reading necessary, but still tons of fun!

THE FUTURE OF C.O.W.L. HANGS IN THE BALANCE

Things get tense for the superhero labor union in this third issue of the new series people are calling Mad Men-with-capes

“American history gets overhauled in C.O.W.L., a new series about the superhero labor union of 1960s Chicago that’s been described as Mad Men meets Avengers.” 
—The Hollywood Reporter

“This is no rebooted Justice League or X-Men. The characters deal with strikingly real issues.”
—The Chicago Sun Times

The third issue of Kyle Higgins (Batman, Nightwing), Alec Siegel (Captain America, Avengers), and Rod Reis’ (Justice League) all-new ongoing series C.O.W.L. reveals an unexpected plot twist and things become dire for the threatened superhero union. Likened to popular television shows Mad Men and The Wire, C.O.W.L. explores heroes in a time of tumultuous change, as they struggle to combat corruption, navigate politics, and maintain the public’s faith.


In C.O.W.L. #3 readers will learn more about Radia and her struggle to gain respect in the the organization and the city. Geoffrey discovers that C.O.W.L.’s future is anything but guaranteed and that its survival hangs in the balance. At the same time, John’s investigation into the union takes a much darker turn.

"With 11th hour negotiations failing, C.O.W.L.'s future has never been bleaker…” said Higgins. “Which makes this quite the turning point for the book. This isn't a series about the birth of the first superhero labor union—it's a series about the death of it."

"With all the plot and betrayal, the tone of the series will get darker and this will definitely be reflected in the art..." added Reis. "You can expect more red in the future issues!"

"Geoffrey Warner, Radia, and John Pierce make decisions in Issue 3 that are going alter the course of their lives—as well as C.O.W.L.'s future," hinted Siegel. "To say things are about to get more complicated is an understatement."

C.O.W.L. #3 arrives in stores on 7/30, and will be available for $3.50. It can be pre-ordered with Diamond Code MAY140700. The final order cutoff deadline for retailers is 7/7.
