Jawbreakers (Comic Book) | comment |
Written by Richard C Meyer with art by Jon Malin (pencils), Brett Smith (color), and Ethan Van Sciver (cover and additional art), Jawbreakers is a series of indie graphic novels that focus on a retired team of ex-superheroes who now find work as mercenaries. It is published by Meyer's press, Splatto Comics.The first volume of the series, called Jawbreakers: Lost Souls was available to fund on Indiegogo in 2018. It held for a few months the record for a crowdfunded comic book, raising the then-unthinkable sum of over $400,000 note To get a sense of the scale of this achievement, before Jawbreakers, crowd-funded comics very rarely broke past $10,000 and were considered a scandalously roaring success if they approached the $50,000 mark.. The final amount covered several times over the original goal, and the finished product was shipped to the project backers in February and March of 2019.The initial volume was followed in 2019 by Jawbreakers: Gød-K1ng, in 2020 by Jawbreakers: Grand Bizarre, and in 2022 by Jawbreakers: Forever; all also funded on Indiegogo. | |

Stripperiffic: Xaxi's outfit, of course. It's basically just a few thin strips of cloth covering her naughty bits. | |

Names to Run Away from Really Fast | |
Jawbreakers (Comic Book) / int_60fa92ac | comment |
Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Most of the Jawbreakers have cool and/or threatening sounding names. You've got Hellpriest, Devil Dog, Kuffz, Knife-Hand, and Kill-Switch. Humorously, their leader goes by the comparatively mundane and unassuming name of Silkworm. | |

Ascended Extra | |
Jawbreakers (Comic Book) / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Averted. After the positive reception Xaxi had with his fans, Meyer announced he had reworked the script to make her a central part of the plot instead of just a one-off character meant to provide exposition and Fanservice. However, the fans then got worried she would distract from what is supposed to be a simple but fun comic about a G.I.Joe-like team fighting a giant gorilla, so Meyer cut her character once again. Although she still has a bigger role than in the original script. | |
