Internationally renowned publisher Humanoids revealed today an exclusive first look at the rocking new graphic novel BLACK CAT SOCIAL CLUB from Annie Award-nominated writer Christopher Painter, highly acclaimed artist Bob Quinn, colorists Meg Casey and Fred C. Stresing, and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, about a trio of punk rock witches who cast spells with their songs to battle corporate demon jerks, defeat rival witch bands, save the world, and get to the next gig, available in stores April 25. 

The BLACK CAT SOCIAL CLUB have been at this "band thing" for a while! But despite their kick-ass skills (and some enchanting spells), they’ve been struggling to get their big break. When a band member sells her soul to a demon for more magical power, they find out that their magical success may actually be a part of a demonic plan fueling the end of the world… 

If you've ever wished Josie and the Pussycats had more demons or Buffy was fronting a punk rock band, you've found your next favorite book in BLACK CAT SOCIAL CLUB.

Christopher Painter is a two-time Annie-nominated writer of films, television, games, and theme park experiences, including Disney’s Dreamlight Valley. He's worked for the Walt Disney Company, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, Warner Bros., and MGM.

Bob Quinn used to make video games, now he writes and draws comics. He’s drawn titles including: Alligator Loki, Uncanny X-Men, Ms. Marvel, Red Sonja, and the Lone Ranger.
