THE LITTLEST FIGHTER from Eisner Award nominee JOEY WIESER (Mermin, Ghost Hog, Dragon Racer)! Perfect for young fans of kaiju monsters and epic fight scenes, THE LITTLEST FIGHTER promises heroes, battles, and a quest to take down the strongest fighter in the world…don’t miss THE LITTLEST FIGHTER when it battles into bookshops next spring!
Midway through The Littlest Fighter, we find ourselves deep inside a mysterious forest. I like this location a lot, it was very fun to draw. Every time I felt like I’d drawn enough on a page, I’d take a second, then come back and draw some more.
Ash, a novice fighter about the size of a human kid battling giant monsters across the land, has started to make a BIG name for himself as he defeats champion after champion, despite his small size. He’ll fight anyone, even if it means destroying a few buildings or villages along the way. When he stumbles across Dot, a young villager who wants to put an end to the destructive fighting, she urges Ash to put his battling days behind him.
But Ash has big battles on the brain! He has his sights set on finding and defeating the Legendary Champion, an old battler who mysteriously disappeared from the fight scene at the top of his game. Dot and Ash set out to find the Legendary Champion and learn about the surprising reason the epic giant doesn’t fight anymore.
Join Ash, Dot, and all the fighting champions in the fast-paced, action-packed graphic novel The Littlest Fighter when it arrives in bookstores everywhere this spring!
