Mudman’s protagonist, Owen Craig, is a distinctly British superhero. As a teen in an English seaside town, he feels like he’s different and soon discovers just how different he is. With his body suddenly (and literally) turning to mud, Owen must learn to control it before he gets trapped in his tiny little hometown once and for all.
Image Comics Publisher Eric Stephenson has praise for Mudman:
Even after producing amazing work over the course of almost 20 years, Paul Grist remains one of comics’ best kept secrets. MUDMAN is just the latest example of Paul’s wonderfully unique sensibilities, and following the rave reviews the early issues have received, we want to this is something new readers can discover at any time.
Mudman is a full-color comic, released monthly, for US $3.50 per issue and is available in print and digital platforms.
