From PaperCutz
PaperCutz1 and Mad Cave Studios2 have announced the release of a new original graphic novel coming out in December 2023 - The Digital Lizards of Doom. From what I have seen, this looks like an excellent read, with some crazy art accompanying the story. Check out the details below.
Join the Digital Lizards of Doom on an unforgettable action adventure through the cosmos!
When a magical trickster secretly traps an entire universe inside a video game world, a young warrior named Dizzy Doom must search for answers to unravel the mystery. But as villains from another galaxy come to attack his kingdom, Dizzy is forced to make an unlikely alliance with a mysterious ninja and cyborg cat pirate. Dizzy’s ideology will be tested, as he comes to realize everything is not always as it seems.
“Everyone is born with a super power,” said DLOD creator Gabriel Valentin3. “It’s called the power of imagination. And Digital Lizards of Doom is here to celebrate that creative wonder, while teaching life lessons that kids of any age can take with them into their day-to-day lives.”

Everything from commercial film and TV production, to songwriting and show hosting. Valentin has spent over a decade touring and performing on major stages across the world, but prefers to be more of a “behind the scenes” sort of guy.

Gabriel spends most of his free time at the beach in his hometown of San Diego, and partnering with ComicBooks For Kids, a non-profit organization that distributes comic books and toys to more than 200 children’s hospitals in the United States and the United Kingdom.
