Writing the new series are Carlos Guzman-Verdugo and Alejandro Verdugo, co-creators of the indie comic Time Cheetah, with Adventure Time veteran Jorge Monlongo providing art. The first issue features cover art by Sara Richard (above), as well as variant covers featuring a photo from the original movie, and artwork from Monlongo.

“Napoleon Dynamite is a pop-culture staple, a coming-of-age cult classic that spoke to the weirdo in all of us. It’s an honor to have the chance to expand on the lives of Napoleon, Deb, and Pedro — characters that continue to resonate to this day. I still see people wearing ‘Vote for Pedro’ t-shirts!” Verdugo said in a statement about the series.

Added Guzman-Verdugo, “With this new story, we’re focusing on matching the movie’s unique tone, finding that perfect blend of oddball comedy and charming slice-of-life drama. It’s certainly been a challenge but one we’re sure will pay off for longtime fans.”

The series will launch in September.
