April 4, 2005, Ft. Lee, NJ - This coming Wednesday, April 6, 2005, Kandora
Publishing's first title, Barbarossa & The Lost Corsairs #1 hits the stands. The
launch of Barbarossa & The Lost Corsairs marks the return of pirate comics to
comic stores. Like all Kandora Publishing titles, Barbarossa & The Lost Corsairs
#1 will feature 32 pages of story and full color art for the cover price of
$3.50.



Barbarossa & The Lost Corsairs is written by industry veteran Brian Augustyn
with art by H.S. Park, colors by Transparency Digital and letters by Dave
Lanphear. Barbarossa and the Lost Corsairs #1 begins on the high seas of Earth
during the Middle Ages but winds up on a strange world in which the waterways
are filled with giant, dangerous sea monsters. Barbarossa and his crew must
figure out where they are, how they got there and how they can get home. But
first, they'll pillage and plunder as much as they can.



"It seems like it has been forever since we started working on Barbarossa & The
Lost Corsairs #1," said Ken Choi, Kandora Publishing publisher. "I'm just really
excited that the fans will finally get a chance to see and read what all of us
here think is a great pirate adventure story. And I'm really looking forward to
seeing what type of feedback we get from it."
