Shannon Wheeler signs three book deal with BOOM! Studios

It’s no secret that BOOM! Studios and Too Much Coffee Man are chummy with one another, so it isn’t totally surprising to see word arrive from the company that Too Much Coffee Man is coming to BOOM! Town! in a three book deal.

“There are few names in the indie comix scene bigger than Shannon Wheeler, and I’m honored to be working with him again,” says BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Matt Gagnon. “We’re excited to have Shannon’s signature creation, TOO MUCH COFFEE MAN, and his other projects join the “BOOM! Town” line and will be putting a lot of muscle into making these books something comics and humor fans will not want to miss!”

The Too Much Coffee Man three-book deal kicks off this fall with an all-new graphic novel, Grandpa Won’t Wake Up.  Then, next winter fans will see Too Much Coffee Man: Cutie Island & Other Stories, and will conclude with the follow up to I Thought You Would Be Funnier – a collection of rejected New Yorker cartoons.
