A graphic novel written by Greg Pak based on the songs of Jonathan Coulton. Art by Takeshi Miyazawa, colors by Jessica Kholinne, letters by Simon Bowland. Buy it digitally at Comixology!
Big news! I’ve opened the Greg Pak Shop, an online store where you can buy signed copies of my books!
If you place an order by the end of day, Friday, December 12, we’ll do our best to get it to you before Christmas. Hot tickets right now include the signed “Code Monkey Save World” graphic novel, available here for the first time in an online store, and signed copies of “Storm” #1.
Enjoy!
I’ll be a guest at the Comic Book Club live show in New York City at 7 pm on Tuesday, December 9. It’s at Fontana’s Bar, 105 Eldridge Street between Grand and Broome, and it’s FREE!
It’s a fun show that I’ve done many, many times over the years. It’s a talk show format, with lots of hijinks and laughs and audience participation and even a bit of serious comics talk!
I’ll also have copies of “Code Monkey Save World” and maybe “Make Comics Like the Pros” for sale!
Come see, come see!
If you missed out on snagging a T-shirt during the “Code Monkey Save World” Kickstarter, this is your lucky week! We’ve launched a Teespring campaign where you can order T-shirts, long sleeved tees, and even hoodies.
So if you have a Code Monkey in your life who needs a shirt or hoodie, check out the campaign today!
Teespring also says T-shirts will be delivered to US addresses 7-10 days after the campaign ends on December 17, so while we can’t guarantee it, there’s a decent chance the shirts will arrive before the holidays.
Enjoy!
Happy Independence Day! Which also happens to be a great day to buy some indie comics written by yours truly!
Today you can buy the first four issues of my TUROK: DINOSAUR HUNTER book, drawn by the great Mirko Colak, for just 99 cents a pop at Comixology! Check it out here.
You can also get all four issues of CODE MONKEY SAVE WORLD, brilliantly illustrated by Takeshi Miyazawa, as part of the $24.99 Monkeybrain Independent’s Day Bundle at Comixology, which also includes indie hits like BANDETTE, KINSKI, and D4VE. Check it out!
If all you want is CODE MONKEY SAVE WORLD (or any of the other individual Monkeybrain books), you can get them for 1/2 off by entering the code “INDIE” at checkout. Details here!
I’m pretty darn proud of both TUROK and CODE MONKEY SAVE WORLD. Get TUROK if you want to see a Native American in 1210 AD deal with the arrival of Crusaders who use dinosaurs as weapons of war. And read CMSW if you want to see a monkey and a supervillain team up in a story based on the songs of internet superstar musician Jonathan Coulton.
Big, fun stuff to write — I hope ya enjoy reading it!

Hey, friends. It’s a big Wednesday for me — three of my books hit stores! Hope you’ll consider checking them out. And if you’re in NYC, please come see me tonight from 6 to 8 pm at JHU Comics!
TUROK DINOSAUR HUNTER #1 is the story of an exiled Native American persecuted by his own tribe whose world turns upside down with the arrival of dinosaurs. The book is illustrated by Mirko Colak with colors by Lauren Affe and letters by Marshall Dillon. Nate Cosby is our fearless leader and editor.
A few excerpts from reviews:
“…a world arrives fully realized on the page with endless potential.” — Den of Geek
“Thanks to it’s outstanding creative team, and a fresh approach, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter #1 is more than just a reboot, it’s a victory lap for everyone involved!” — Comics: The Gathering
“Pak gives a deeply emotional driven story that sets up the future of the series perfectly. I also loved the soft spoken nature he gave Turok, and the way that the English language was classed as the foreign language amused me.” — Unleash the Fanboy
Grab it from your local store, nab it on Comixology, or get it via mail order from Dynamite!
ACTION COMICS #28 continues the exploration of the world of Subterranea, where Superman and Lana Lang learn of an entirely new threat — and spend a little more time with each other. Art by Aaron Kuder and colors by Wil Quintana.
The Comic Current calls the book “flawless” and All-Comic.com gives it five stars.
Grab it at your local store or nab it on Comixology.
Finally, CODE MONKEY SAVE WORLD #3 is now available at Comixology! Here’s the solicit: “Code Monkey joins Skullcrusher and the monsters of Villainy Affiliated, LLC in hopes of saving his office crush Matilde from the clutches of Laura the Robo Queen. But who ever said Matilde actually needs saving? Shocking revelations await you on Chiron Beta Prime!”
Art by Takeshi Miyazawa, colors by Jessica Kholinne, letters by Simon Bowland, and based on the songs of Jonathan Coulton.
