Vault Comics has announced that actor/comedian/comics creator Patton Oswalt has joined the team of MONEY SHOT: BIG BANG. Co-written with series creator Tim Seeley, and featuring Garth Graham on illustration, Kurt Michael Russell on coloring, Crank! on letters, and Tim Daniel on design, this shocking new sequel is one of the most engaging sex and science-fiction comedies in comics today, meant for titillating tentacled moments of hilarity and over-the-top acts of some sort of sex positivity.
“Money Shot has always been about finding the right partners,” says Seeley. “Lots of partners. Friends. Strangers. Aliens with a dozen or so sex organs. And even beloved comedians and acclaimed webcomics artists! So, with BIG BANG, I’m positively throbbing to work with my friend and collaborator Patton Oswalt, and burning hot new (to print comics) talent, Garth Graham!”
“By being insanely over-the-top and on the outer rim of offensiveness, Money Shot actually lands squarely in the center of our current, deviant reality,” added Oswalt.
“I came across Money Shot when Kurt Michael Russell was coloring the first couple of volumes and I remember being both delighted and surprised that ‘mainstream comics were getting so cheeky, said Graham. “Everything from a publisher is mainstream when you’re in webcomics, you see. So when Vault reached out, saying that Tim Seeley named me when asked what artist he wanted to work with most, I knew that the only appropriate answer was ‘oh god, yes!’ Money Shot is exactly the kind of funny, sexy comic that lives right in my wheelhouse. A perfect fit.”
Here’s the official… description… of sorts for #1:
You ever see that second Ewoks movie? The one where they suddenly kill off all the characters from the first movie?! And you were like “Mommy! Whyyy oh god whyyy?” Well, this new MONEY SHOT arc is like that with a lot less body hair , somewhat more sex, and the same amount of people yelling for mommy. The XXX-plorers return just in time to witness the rise of an anti-sex death cult! Now it’s a race against time and the relay team includes alien strippers! All new artist Garth Graham joins OG writer Tim Seeley, and actual real funny person PATTON OSWALT!
Amazing. The comic series will debut with an issue zero in January 15th, 2025 that will serve as both a synopsis issue, but also, as one that sets the stage for the new story. MONEY SHOT BIG BANG #1 will then launch just in time for Valentine’s day on February 12th, 2025.
If that weren’t enough to check this out. Well, then you can actually pull back on our archives and actually read the first issue of the original MONEY SHOT right here on The Beat.
