Craig A. Taillefer's Wahoo Morris returns in Trade Paperback format

In October 2006 Craig Taillefer's acclaimed series Wahoo Morris returns in it's first Trade Paperback collection.

With four self-published issues and one re-print at IMAGE Comics, Wahoo Morris won a devoted following for it's quirky character driven saga of an indie rock band trying to make it big. The title also achieved critical acclaim from retailers and media alike. "I have been amazed by the response to Wahoo Morris," said Taillefer. "There seems to be quite an audience hungry for the kind of character driven stories I am telling."

The first Wahoo Morris Trade collects the four previously printed singles issues, and then beginning with future volumes - two are in the works already - Craig is going to follow one of the newer business models for a serialized comic that's being explored these days, with Wahoo Morris going more or less direct to trade paperback format from it's sterilized web comic form at Modern Tales.

"Adopting a direct to trade format for Wahoo Morris is a logical one," said Taillefer. "As I have been serializing Wahoo Morris as a web comic at Modern Tales dot.com for the past two years, it really was a backwards step to then serialize the story again in singles format. All of the new story and art will from now on be going directly to trade paperback collections and skipping past the single comic stage."

To facilitate new readers coming on board, and to make the decision to order even easier, the first chapter of Wahoo Morris Book One (originally presented as issue #1 of Wahoo Morris) is available as a free PDF download on the Internet at 'www.wahoomorris.com'.

Craig A. Taillefer is a comic book veteran, best known for his long time work on Elfquest, and was short-listed for the Russ Manning New Talent Award in 1999 (disqualified on the technicality that he was a veteran by then already and not a new talent)

Wahoo Morris Book One is a 96 page, black & white, Digest Size (5.5x8) Trade Paperback with color covers . Retail price is $9.99 and is available for pre-order in the August Edition of Previews from Diamond Comic Distributors under Too Hip Gotta Go Graphics.
