Sugarshock one-shot
The CBR page for Dark Horse's October solicitations has the blurb and cover for this issue
The blurb: I love the sound of those extra 14 pages.
"SUGARSHOCK
Joss Whedon (W), Fabio Moon (A/Cover), and Dave Stewart (C)
On sale Oct 21
FC, 40 pages
$3.50
One-Shot
Originally presented in the first online issues of MySpace Dark Horse Presents, for which it won the Eisner Award for Best Web Comic, Sugarshock tells the story of a rock band led by charismatic but crazy Dandelion Naizen, a hyperactive singer/songwriter possessed of a mean hatred of Vikings (don't ask) and a mission for a secret government agency that may only exist in her head. But when her band, which includes a robot bass player, is enlisted in an intergalactic battle of the bands--emphasis on battle--Dandelion gets to prove herself as both singer and soldier.
This is Joss Whedon at his funniest and most hyperactive, with writing that bursts off the page in a way seldom seen in comics. Multiple Eisner Award winner Fabio Moon delivers the outrageous story with equal energy, as well as providing a fourteen-page look at his process, with never-before-seen character designs, page layouts, and promotional images.
Joss Whedon's Eisner award-winning story gets its own comic!"
