"REVVVelations" by Yates and Yan [Mature Readers Only!]

Online Comic:

REVVVelations by Jolyon Yates and Stan Yan

Imagine the future of this country where corporations have usurped control of the states; where corporate mercenary war fallout has left humanity rampant with genetic mutation; AND, where your TV remote has an on/off button, volume control, and only ONE channel… because you only NEED one channel for the craze that’s sweeping the nation: the RACE!

This is the world of REVVVelations. Enter Moose and Essie, our fearless guerilla TV broadcasters – chased by FCC agents into the CoorGen Mountain Regional Race. These two archrivals are forced to put their social and professional differences behind them and join forces, battling their personal ghosts, to stay alive -- but more importantly -- professionally viable in their quest to deliver REAL news!

REVVVelations is an action adventure jam packed with humor, reliousity, romantic tension, and mutant disfigurations.  Oh, and YES, there is cannibalism, but it’s really not polite to talk about, even though everyone knows it happens.

The Potlatch Infestation by Stan Yan

As co-publisher for Potlatch: Comics to Benefit the CBLDF, Stan Yan ended up with an inordinate number of these books in his basement.  So, in the past few years, he's tried to turn that to his advantage by offering it as an enticement for FREE to folks at conventions with any purchase.  Much to Yan's surprise, people have become growingly suspicious that they are getting something that big for free.  Whadda they have to worry about?  That's what this story, The Potlatch Infestation is about.  Starring characters from Yan's The Wang graphic novels.

Stan Yan grew up in Denver, Colorado and went to school at the University of Colorado in Boulder where he got his bachelor’s degree in accounting.  Due to the lack of sex-for-recruiting for accounting students, Yan’s life took the tragic turn into sales for the securities industry, where he has wallowed in ethical poverty on-and-off for the last thirteen years.  Yan takes his frustrations out by penning graphic novels such as The Wang as well as a daily financial webcomic called, The Tickle Tape.

(One) of Denver’s best comic artists” ~Kyle MacMillan, Denver Post
