BAD CAT makes waves at lake tahoe comic con
At this year’s South Lake Tahoe Comic Con, a new player in the comic book publishing scene made waves: Bad Cat Comics. Founded by David Jung, this company has quickly captured the imagination of attendees and comic enthusiasts alike. Their innovative approach to storytelling and vibrant artistry has not only made them a standout at the convention but has also led to an invitation to return next year and host a panel where they will share insights on the journey of launching a comic book publishing company, discussing the challenges they faced and the strategies that led to their rapid success.
At the helm of Bad Cat Comics is David Jung, a seasoned professional with a rich background in the entertainment industry, working for major studios like Paramount and Disney, before transitioning into writing and directing films and documentaries. The birth of Bad Cat was fueled by Jung’s lifelong love of comic books.
His vision for Bad Cat Comics is to create uniquely imaginative tales that focus on science fiction, fantasy, horror, and adventure. Their debut is "The Kraken," a seven-issue limited series that blends imaginative storytelling with striking visuals. The series is illustrated by the talented Steven Yu, whose artistry brings a fresh spin to the age-old mythology of the legendary sea creature. "The Kraken" reimagines the myth through a contemporary lens, inviting readers to dive into a world filled with adventure, mystery, and the unknown. The series has been praised for its imaginative plot, making it a perfect introduction to Bad Cat Comics' unique brand. Attendees were drawn to their booth, eager to pick up copies of "The Kraken" and meet the creators behind the magic. The buzz around the series was palpable, with fans expressing their excitement over the engaging storytelling and stunning artwork.
With plans for future projects and an expanding portfolio, Bad Cat is committed to pushing the boundaries of comic storytelling.
