‘Arcade Kings’ ascends to the throne at Skybound in May

Dylan Burnett writes and draws a new series about ‘video game infused fighting’ that kicks off in May.

Burnett will be joined by colorists Walter Baiamonte and Sara Antonellini on the series.

But it’s a very well-done comic, especially for one they created in just 24 hours — or almost, anyway. Gillman still has a few pages left that they were hoping to finish today. Here’s the first page:
