The popular webcomic America Jr. is coming to trade paperback and Image Comics has been able to nab actor Gregory Itzin to write the intro. Fans of the FOX television series 24 will know Itzin as President Logan from the series. Why Itzin for the intro?
“We’re thrilled to have Gregory involved!” beams co-creator Todd Livingston. “He’s the ideal choice to write the book’s introduction…other than, you know, the actual President. Plus, not only was he on ’24’, but ‘Firefly’ and three different Star Trek series, so working with him totally satisfies my inner-geek.”
America Jr. follows a tiny town that discovers it is no longer a part of the United States, and chronicles the citizens’ hilarious misadventures while attempting to emulate the U.S. government.
America Jr. collects the first 150 strips of the daily online comic and is created by Todd Livingston and Nick Capetanakis. America Jr. arrives in store July 18th.
