Image Comics Sends "Motor Crush #1" Back to Press

MOTOR CRUSH CAPTURES BATGIRL FAN FOLLOWING

#1 issue rushed back to print

MOTOR CRUSH #1—by Brenden Fletcher, Cameron Stewart, and Babs Tarr of Batgirl of Burnside fame—launched to instant success and immediate critical acclaim this week and Image Comics is sending it back to print in order to keep up with customer demand.

By day, Domino Swift competes for fame and fortune in a worldwide motorcycle racing league. By night, she cracks heads of rival gangs in brutal bike wars to gain possession of a rare, valuable contraband: an engine-boosting “machine narcotic” known as Crush.

MOTOR CRUSH remains available for purchase across all digital platforms, including the Image Comics website (imagecomics.com), the official Image Comics iOS app, Comixology’s website (comixology.com), iOS, Android, and Google Play.

MOTOR CRUSH #1, 2nd printing (Diamond Code NOV168052) and MOTOR CRUSH #2 Cover A by Tarr (NOV160629) and Cover B by Stewart (Diamond Code NOV160630) will be available on Wednesday, January 11th, 2017. The final order cutoff deadline for comics retailers is Monday, December 19th, 2016.
