Scott Pilgrim creator BRYAN LEE O’MALLEY heads over to Image Comics for SNOTGIRL
New York Times bestselling writer Bryan Lee O’Malley of Scott Pilgrim is back with a new ongoing series titled SNOTGIRL, featuring artwork by newcomer Leslie Hung. The series that lunches this July is about Lottie Person, a gorgeous, fun-loving social media star with a seemingly perfect life-but deep-down is really just a gross, allergy-ridden mess. The new ongoing series enters a world of snot, blood, and tears.
“Lottie Person is an extreme example of someone whose online persona is a calculated performance. She’s gorgeous, she has great hair and clothes, she has the perfect apartment in downtown Los Angeles,” said O’Malley of the main character in a recent interview in Image+ Magazine. “By all appearances she’s flawless, but she’s an introverted weirdo on the inside.”
Leslie Hung incorporated current brands and fashion elements into the story and said her art strategy, “It was important to pay attention to brands, but also to the people who wear those brands in day-to-day life… All the characters kind of have their own thing going on, but as events unfold, I hope people are able to see when things start to shift, and I’m definitely letting the situations dictate the details.”
Catch the new ongoing series Snotgirl at your nearest local comic book shop this July.
