Sneak Peek: The77 Issue 3

The guys at The77 have kindly given me a sneak peek at the lineup for issue 3 of their successful new anthology comic.  As you may know from my review, I felt that issue 2 had improved on the groundwork laid in the debut issue and looking at the contents of issue 3 it certainly looks like that improving trend will continue.

The exciting news is that following the outstanding success of issue 2's funding, the team at The77 have made the decision to publish every two months. I personally think this is great as it means less time waiting between issues to find out what happens in the ongoing stories.


At the time of writing, it seems that their confidence is justified, as the Kickstarter for issue 3 went live on Friday and reached its target in just a matter of hours.  You still have time to get onboard as the Kickstarter ends on 6th September with issue 3 hitting doormats mid October.
