"Rockstar Scientists is an intriguingly deranged pop culture/science fusion." - Mark Clapham, Warhammer 40,000 and Doctor Who novelist
The King is dead. Long live the queen. Introducing El, the world's most famous star, on an Earth where scientists rather than musicians command the adoration of millions with wealth to match. Rarely affording them the respect they deserve but often saving the planet along the way. These adventurers and pioneers may not play guitar but they hit the notes and bang the drums that change the face of history.
Born of creator Kenny Jeffery's love for music, science and comics, Rockstar Scientists is a action packed, time bending adventure no matter what order its read in. "It was important that anyone could pick up any issue and build out the story from there". The first series consists of five issues all with pencils and inks from up-and-coming artist George Zapata, and colors by Crimzon Studio's Amit Ghadge. Also included is a back up tale drawn by Jordan Cutler and starring Professor Peaks, Rockstar Scientists' resident expert on everything from falsetto to fauna.
Rockstar Scientists #1 will be available at Graphicly.com as well as the Graphicly iPhone, iPad and Android applications. For more information and to download, please visit http://bit.ly/xkBLeb
About the creators
The first and still most read comic in Kenny Jeffery's collection is Uncanny X-men #324. This single issue instilled a life long love of everything X. Now armed with twenty five other letters and some punctuation, Kenny lives in the South of England where he gets to supplement his earnings with luck and sanity by writing, illustrating and designing comics.
George Zapata isn’t sure when his journey into comics began. Since the beginning though he knew he had pencil and ink in his blood (it was a freak accident involving very little understanding of gravity and stairs). After honing his skills at the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic art, he made his comic debut in the SIX anthology as penciller and inker of 'The Altruist'.
Having graduated from the Bournemouth Arts Institute, Jordan Cutler now works as a freelance animator and indie game developer.
Amit Ghadge is creative director at Crimzon Studio, a group of passionate colorists and post- production designers based out of Mumbai, India.
