Preview: Sweet Lullaby #2
Darby Pop Publishing is presenting a new series called Sweet Lullaby, an all-new sexy spy thriller co-created by writer AJ Scherkenbach and artist J. Briscoe Allison.
Prior to the trade paperback (graphic novel) of Sweet Lullaby releasing in March 2017, Darby Pop is releasing individual floppies digitally.
Logline: Sweet Lullaby is a blackly comedic spy-thriller cum dysfunctional-family drama set within modern suburbia. Imagine that the girl-next-door — sweet, friendly, and beautiful – is also a somewhat-sadistic government assassin… trying to lead a “normal” life even while taking lives.
Issue #2 Synopsis: DADDY’S LITTLE GIRL – Lullaby and Z are off to Vegas for a father-daughter weekend of clubbing, drinking, and killing a political extortionist. But, Lullaby becomes distracted when her boyfriend, Vladimir, confesses the depth of his feelings for her. And Z finds himself wondering if his sweet Lullaby has become a liability…
What’s It Like?
Sweet Lullaby is a spy-thriller caught in the crosshairs of such films as The Professional, The Big Hit, and The Long Kiss Goodnight; and such TV series as Nikita and Alias. Sweet Lullaby is an action/adventure series with covert-but-shocking homicides and dark humor — even as its main character struggles to balance a “normal” life with taking lives.
