# Welcome to Showside

**Welcome to Showside** is a new comic book series coming out this **October.** It’s created by **Ian McGinty**, who is known for his work on the **Bravest Warriors** comic series. The book will be published by **Z2**, a newer publisher who is big on letting creators tell unique and interesting stories.

**Welcome to Showside** will featured the adventures of **Kit**, a loveable (and totally adorable) kid with a big secret: His dad is the great **Shadow King** and he wants** Kit** to take over the family business of destroying the world. **Kit** isn’t really the take over the world type – he much prefers fun things like skateboarding, eating rad food, and hanging out with his friends. Since his dad is a total baddie, sometimes **Kit** and his friends need to team up to defend the town of **Showside** from monsters, ghosts, demons, and other evil do-ers.

We’ll keep you posted with more info and hopefully some sample pages as the comic gets closer to release – but it seems like it’s gonna be a pretty great series. Maybe it’ll even fill the** [Teen Dog](https://www.yayomg.com/teen-dog-final-issue/)** shaped hole in our hearts.

Update: BIG NEWS! **Welcome to Showside** is getting an animated pilot – which meaaans if it gets picked up, it’ll be a real live cartoon!
