Synopsis

• One man versus every mascot in professional sports ― THEY WILL ALL BE PUNCHED! It’s kick-off time for this year’s most action-packed and hilarious comic! "Fearless" Chuck Fairlane was football’s fastest rising star, but his career came to a screeching halt when he was expelled from the league after goin’ HAM and causing the biggest brawl in the history of sports. Years later, Chuck has found peace as a high school football coach, until costumed mascots begin attacking him for seemingly no reason. Before long, Chuck's going to discover that you can't run away from the past ― but you CAN punch it square in the face!

About the Authors

Chad Bowers is a comics writer and creator from South Carolina. With cowriter and pal Chris Sims and artist Scott Kowalchuk, he created the Yalsa–nominated original graphic novel Down, Set, Fight! for Oni-Lion Forge. With Sims, Chad’s other credits include the fan-favorite Marvel Comics series X-Men ‘92, Infinity Wars: Sleepwalker, Guardians of the Galaxy: Monsters Unleashed, and the best-selling original graphic novel Deadpool: Bad Blood. He’s also written and produced comics for PBS, Image Comics, IDW Publishing, Dynamite Entertainment, and BOOM! studios. After years of being encouraged by his high school’s coaching staff to join the football team, Chad played exactly two games before all agreed maybe he’d be better off pursuing his passion for making comics. No mascots were injured in either game.
