Anarchic comic creator Marc Jackson‘s new comic strip ‘KA-PUNCH!’ is to launch in the January issue of Comic Heroes magazine.

“It’s a goofy new super-hero comic about a young boy called Wally Waffle,” he reveals, “who gets three wishes from the mysterious Gene the Space genie and all manner of hi-jinks ensue after he makes his choices!

“I pitched it to editor Will Salmon a few months ago, as a cross between Adam West’s Batman and Adventure Time and he was really into it. The rest is comic book history!”
