Gaming visionary Cliff Bleszinski and superstar scribe Alex de Campi are launching the second issue of their dog-centric comic series Scrapper today! This personal story of love and loss mixes sci-fi action and mystery with friendship, thrills, and a delightful dose of man’s best friend!
Following the critical and commercial success of issue #1, Scrapper #2 picks up with Scrapper reeling from the loss of his home and with dozens of S.M.I.T.E (Special Monopoly for Industrial Tech & Engineering) stormtroopers on his tail. At the same time, his buddy Tank recruits the city’s other critters to give him a paw (or wing). From bombastic action to heartfelt moments, Scrapper #2 has it all!
This second issue features art by new series artists Ryan Kelly and Jordie Bellaire, and they’ll be the art team for the remainder of Scrapper’s six-issue run. In addition, Eisner award-winning artist Juan Ferreyra continues to provide stunning covers for each issue along with the collected hardback that is available in early 2024.
Here’s what folks are saying about Scrapper:

To celebrate the launch of Scrapper #2, Cliff is holding an in-person signing at Ssalefish Comics in Greensboro, North Carolina, on Saturday, August 26th, from 12 pm – 3 pm EST. Cliff is bringing along a cosplay item for dogs to try on, and the store will be collecting food & toy donations for the Guilford County Animal Resource Center.
