Book of Voices Reprints Available January 2025!
Originally funded via Kickstarter in 2018 and quickly sold out, Julio A. Guerra's acclaimed music-inspired sketchbook, Book of Voices, is finally being reprinted! This reissue will be available through Guerrilla Publishing's distributor, ComicDistro.com.
Julio shares:
"The sketchbook was never reprinted, and I felt it was time. This project was a passion piece—an opportunity to share a part of myself beyond Deathbag. Music has always been a huge part of my life, and I wanted to share what inspires me."
Previously available only in limited quantities through select retailers and conventions, this new reprint ensures Book of Voices will reach a wider audience thanks to ComicDistro.
"This also opens the door for me to pitch a second Book of Voices to the team at Guerrilla Publishing," adds Julio.
