The Lab is one of the new comics publishers hoping to make a splash in ’25 – The Beat exclusively unveiled their debut line-up of graphic novels just a few weeks ago – and they’re also headed to this week’s ComicsPro meeting, with Essentials co-writers Luke Arnold & Doc Wyatt in attendance. They’re giving away the Super Science: Chapter Zero comic Exclusive Edition (Tula Lotay cover, LTD 300), postcards, and limited quantities of the Snuggles plush puppet – based on The Essentials. I think we have our first coveted promo piece.
One of the projects The Lab is spotlighting at their presentations is a Super Science Chapter Zero one shot that will have a ComicsPro exclusive cover by Tula Lotay.
Super Science: Chapter Zero (One-Shot)
Just in time for Free Comic Book Day, this promotionally priced $0.99 comic presents an exclusive 22-page story that leads into THE LAB’s upcoming original graphic novel SUPER SCIENCE!
Super Science: Chapter Zero introduces a world turned on its head by the Amethyst Incident—a mysterious catalyst that empowered tinkerers, inventors, and disruptors to create mind-bending scientific marvels overnight. In this chaotic new reality, readers meet a human-cat hybrid named Karen as she infiltrates a high-society sex party in Los Angeles. Her mission? To steal top-secret tech from eccentric billionaire Burt Montague. Blending high-concept sci-fi with razor-sharp comedy, this prelude sets the stage for the upcoming original graphic novel. Blending high-concept sci-fi with razor-sharp comedy, Super Science: Chapter Zero takes a satirical look at the absurd, often disastrous consequences of unchecked innovation.
