Get ready to rev up your engines for the next thrilling adventure as Oni Press, in collaboration with entertainment giants Nacelle and Maximum Effort, unveils the highly anticipated BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1, hitting shelves this July. This new comic series begins an exciting chapter in the Nacelleverse, featuring everyone’s favorite animation icons who tear up the Red Planet’s most challenging terrain.
Written by the talented Melissa Flores (known for Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers and Spider-Gwen: Smash) and illustrated by Eisner Award-nominated artist Francis Portela (of Green Lantern fame), BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1 promises an exhilarating journey into the origins of these legendary characters.
“We’re diving into the Nacelleverse!” said Flores. “The Biker Mice are a trio of Martian mice fighting to protect the home they love from being defiled by an egoistic corporation. They are pushed to the limit and must decide how much of their lives they will give up to save the world they love. Just three planets away, we will show how complicated and nuanced these characters are, even if they seem so different on the surface!”
Join best friends Throttle, Modo, and Vinnie, three motorcycle-riding mice who call Mars their home, as they embark on an epic quest to defend their planet from the ruthless Plutarkians. When these extraterrestrial invaders threaten to strip Mars of its vital resources, the Biker Mice from Mars must rise and fight back to ensure the survival of their world and the freedom of the entire solar system.
Nacelle Founder and CEO Brian Volk-Weiss shared his excitement, saying, “We hope you’re ready for alien mice, crime bosses that smell like cheese, and copious amounts of hot dogs! Let’s rock and ride!”
Alongside the comic series, Nacelle is developing a new animated series directed by Brian Volk-Weiss with a star-studded team of executive producers, including Ryan Reynolds and others. The summer’s most anticipated return of Biker Mice from Mars will feature covers from exceptional artists Dustin Weaver, Juan Gedeon, Roger Cruz, Ramon Villalobos, and Francis Portela.
