Image
In recent years, CMON has built a reputation for creating some of the most beloved board games in the industry. Titles like Zombicide , Dune , Cyberpunk 2077 , Cthulhu: Death May Die , Arcadia Quest and Marvel United have garnered a dedicated fanbase, many of whom have supported these games through Kickstarter campaigns and retail purchases. However, CMON's recent decision to make exclusive content for these games available only at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) has sparked significant outrage among its loyal supporters. The Exclusivity Issue At the heart of the controversy are the exclusive expansions and content for Zombicide: White Death, Cthulhu: Death May Die, and Marvel United. These exclusives include: Zombicide: White Death TMNT Expansion: Featuring comics and Rocksteady and Bebop miniatures for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion.

Another Early Preview of @ImageComics Oddly Normal #1 by @OtisFrampton


ODDLY NORMAL—WHAT IF ONE WISH TURNED INTO YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE?

An all-new fantasy adventure begins with the snuff of a birthday candle

Cartoonist Otis Frampton brings to life the world of ODDLY NORMAL. Oddly’s life is an unhappy blend of the magic and mortal worlds, but just when she thought life couldn’t get anymore miserable, one innocent wish throws her life asunder. With her safety abruptly thrown into great peril Oddly must travel to the land of Fignation to try to save her family and get back the life she took for granted.


Filled with steampunk-esque creatures, magical new alliances, floating dirigibles, and a nefarious mystery, Oddly’s adventure is anything but normal. ODDLY NORMAL is a witty, world-building fantasy sophisticated enough to enchant adults and whimsical enough to inspire the imaginations of younger audiences.

"I'm looking forward to taking readers on a fun ride," said Frampton. "Fignation is the collective imagination of humanity and Oddly is going to be stuck there for a while. Monsters, magic, super-heroes, time-travel... expect all of it in Oddly Normal."

The first issue of ODDLY NORMAL arrives in stores 9/17 and will be available for $2.99. It can be pre-ordered using Diamond Code JUL140443. The final order cutoff for retailers is TODAY, 8/25.

Check out the first 5-page preview of Oddly Normal.
