FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Hyper-Stakes and High Energy: “Shonen Punx! Vol. 1” Set to Hit Shelves February 1, 2025

[ANAHEIM, CA] — Andeh Pinkard, the creative force behind the genre-blending webcomic sensation, is thrilled to announce that Shonen Punx! Vol. 1 will officially make its print debut on February 1, 2025.

Described as a collision of “Mid-Life Crisis, Punk Rock, and Permanent Chaos,” Shonen Punx! follows the increasingly complicated life of Chiitsu Pinkada. As the xennial owner of the best (and perhaps only) comics and records shop on the “left coast,” Chiitsu’s ordinary life is upended when his mad-scientist siblings, Moz and Boi, steal a super-advanced bio-mecha girl named Eva.

The catch? They based Eva’s personality on Chiitsu’s high school “dream girl” OC. Now, with retro mechas and psycho androids hunting Eva down, Chiitsu’s work-life balance is officially a thing of the past.

Where to Purchase

Fans can now pre-order the first volume of this sci-fi/comedy epic through major retailers and local shops:

• Online Retailers: Pre-orders are currently live at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
• Local Comic Shops: Readers are encouraged to request the title at their local bookstore. If the shop uses Ingram, they can easily order the volume for you.
• Libraries: Shonen Punx! is available for library acquisition nationwide. Librarians can add this title to their graphic novel collections using ISBN: 979-8-9944377-0-4.

About the Series

Originally a popular webcomic, Shonen Punx! is a high-energy reboot of Pinkard’s earlier “Shonen Punk” works. It combines the aesthetic of 90s/2000s “weeb” culture with the gritty, rebellious spirit of alt-punk. Featuring a cast of “worst-ever” shop staff, retro-mecha action, and sci-fi harem tropes turned on their head, Volume 1 is the definitive beginning of the chaos.
