New Releases by Jeff Parker

THE CALL OF THE WILD! After getting a report of a children’s scout troop in trouble, Officers Hopps and Wilde head to Tundratown on the outskirts of Zootopia to investigate — and their appearance doesn’t sit well with the local Grizzly clan! The ZPD partners reassure the bears that they’re only checking up on the wayward scouts, who are busy honing their survival skills. But as Nick helps the kids out by drawing on his own scouting past, Judy becomes suspicious of their Den Mother’s curriculum — which seems to involve a awful lot of panning for gold! Experienced wilderness guides JEFF PARKER and ALESSANDRO RANALDI blaze a new trail in Zootopia #5 — featuring scenic overlooks from RANALDI, TRISH FORSTNER, CRAIG ROUSSEAU, and more!

THE SKY IS NO LONGER THE LIMIT! A rash of burglaries at the high-rise apartment towers of Little Rodentia bring Officers Hopps and Wilde to the highest levels of Zootopian society — literally! The top suspects are a pair of daredevil performers called the Flying Squirrels, and the ZPD partners will have to catch them before they can bring them in for questioning — something easier said than done when half of the investigative team has a petrifying fear of heights! Tightrope walkers JEFF PARKER and ALESSANDRO RANALDI debut their high wire act in Zootopia #4 — balanced by covers from RANALDI, TRISH FORSTNER, CRAIG ROUSSEAU, and more!

Darkwing Duck’s most notorious nemesis is no one-trick antagonist. The dastardly Negaduck can lie, cheat, cut the tags off of mattresses, and (most especially) steal better than any other outlaw under the sun. So great are his skills at thievery, in fact, that a super-secret society of burgling bad guys not only wants him to join their group — they think that he should be its new head honcho! However, in order to prove that he’s got the chops to be the leader of all villains, Negaduck will have to pull off an impossible heist — a feat that will require the help of his fellow menaces. Will the legendary (in his own mind) Negaduck emerge triumphant? Or will he be cut out of his own conspiracy by his double-crossing criminal colleagues? All will be revealed in Negaduck Vol. 2: The Ancient Order of Villainy, collecting issues #5-8 of the comedic chronicle written and illustrated by dedicated henchmen JEFF PARKER and CIRO CANGIALOSI and featuring an appropriately megalomaniacal cover portrait of St. Canard’s most noxious ne’er-do-well by JAE LEE & JUNE CHUNG!

After their investigation into the PB&J cell phone sabotage plot temporarily stalls, Officers Hopps and Wilde respond to a call that most cops would avoid like a stale donut — a break-in at the City Dump! Or rather, a break-in at the Zootopia Recycling Depot, as its managing skunk Chuck Flowers is quick to emphasize when Hopps and Wilde arrive to view his security tapes. The footage of the felonious raccoons and opossums hauling away bags of garbage is clear enough, but what’s not clear is what kind of trash it is that they’re stealing — or why. There’s only one way to crack this case: It’s time for a good old-fashioned stake-out! Canny crime reporters JEFF PARKER (Negaduck, Batman ’66) and ALESSANDRO RANALDI (Disney Villains: Hades) delve further into the inner workings of Disney’s species-rich city with Zootopia #2 — bolstered by eye-catching covers from RANALDI, TRISH FORSTNER, CRAIG ROUSSEAU, and more!

Four contemporary authors explore the vices and virtues of deception and how it manifests in ways personal, psychological, propulsive, and profound.

It’s another beautiful day in the bustling city of Zootopia, where every animal is free to strive to realize their full potential — and one of the most successful of those strivers is Tripp Zebrando, owner of the PB&J cell phone company. PB&J’s high-tech devices are the must-have accessories for every species in town, and Tripp is about to launch their latest model with a huge publicity event timed for the arrival of the first shipment of phones at the airport. Unfortunately, somebody has it in for PB&J, or Tripp (or both), and the resulting sabotage threatens to bring the house down — right on top of the unsuspecting crowd! Luckily, ZPD’s finest — in the form of Officers Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde — are on the scene, ready to keep the peace (or at least contain the chaos). But what they’re about to discover in the aftermath of this seemingly isolated incident will lead them into a much larger and more complicated case! Acclaimed author JEFF PARKER (Negaduck, Batman ’66) partners up with renowned artist ALESSANDRO RANALDI (Disney Villains: Hades) to bring the captivating world of Disney’s Zootopia to comic-book life with this all-new mystery adventure — featuring courtroom-quality covers from RANALDI, TRISH FORSTNER, CRAIG ROUSSEAU, and more!

Negaduck’s showdown with his super-secret society of villains comes to a cropper in this cataclysmically climactic issue! Will Darkwing Duck’s most notorious nemesis emerge triumphant, or will he be cut out of his own conspiracy by his double-crossing criminal colleagues? Find out the shocking answer in JEFF PARKER and CIRO CANGIALOSI’s Negaduck #8 — a feast for the eyes, seasoned with delectable covers from CANGIALOSI, JAE LEE, DREW MOSS, and TRISH FORSTNER!
