A good, old-fashioned space opera. –Dave Sim

I love the cartooning. –Warren Ellis

Matt Dembicki seems to have a good handle on dialogue and knows how to keep the story flowing with just enough exposition peppered in-between the action bits. –Ain’t It Cool News

The art is original, the story is funny and captures the imagination, and there’s a lot of action. –TalkAboutComics.com

Ignatz-Award and Howard E. Day Prize winner (for Xoc and Mr. Big, respectively) Matt Dembicki doesn’t just write epic narratives about underwater ocean-life – he also writes about heroic, space-faring, sword-wielding pond life!

Robot Comics is proud to present Spadefoot by Dembicki and artist Andrew Cohen for Android and Apple mobiles. Spadefoot is a classic space opera following one freebooting royal toad as he stumbles upon a threat to the entire universe. An all-ages, fast-paced, four-part series that blends mainstream pulp with indie comic weirdness to produce something better than both. Spadefoot #1 is now available on the Android market and will soon be released on iTunes as well.

Second Generation Mobile Comic

Spadefoot is a second generation mobile comic, blending together frame-by-frame animation, transition effects, vibration and custom screens to provide a brand new comic reading experience while also staying true to the traditional comic book form.

Synopsis

An unlikely hero is called upon to free the universe from the clutches of one nasty space salamander called Hellbender. But will Spadefoot and his misfit marauders – an aged, larva-eating mole named Joubert who once served as the master of Hellbender’s royal guard, and Indigo, a one-eyed, short-tempered bounty huntress – have what it takes to overcome the Herculean obstacles they face along the way to the ultimate showdown?
