For the first time ever, the entirety of Blue Monday will be collected in an impressively massive one volume tome from Image Comics. Blue Monday: Germfree Adolescents all of the previous mini-series’and one-shots originally published through Oni Press, as well as rare short stories and behind-the-scenes material never before seen. This seminal series sometimes referred to as “Archie Comics on crack” became a huge cult hit, and now a whole new generation of comic fans can experience the adventures of Bleu L. Finnegan and all her friends, but that’s not all.
Blue Monday is returning with an all-new series from original creator Chynna Clugston Flores! Blue Monday: Thieves Like Us reunites the world with Bleu, Clover, Victor, Alan, and the entire gang from Fresburger, California in all new adventures. But wait, there’s more.
Chynna also announced an all-new series of Scooter Girl, her classic inspired by southern California Mod and scooter culture. Big man on campus Ashton Archer has everything a guy could want; a huge family fortune awaiting him, expensive clothes and gadgets, and a slick Vespa. Everything is perfect, until Margaret Sheldon pulls up on her Lambretta, and everything falls apart.
“I am extremely excited to be announcing that Blue Monday and Scooter Girl are back to print with Image Comics,” said Clugston Flores. “These series are near and dear to my heart, I’m hoping that not only new readers will embrace them, but that original fans will be pleased to see these sharp new collections as well as brand new Blue Monday material. There’s a lot in store, a lot of laughs, and a hell of a lot of fun to be had!”
More Blue Monday and Scooter Girl will be available as soon as a street date is announced.
