As an early adopter of Kyle Starks wrestling comic Legend of Ricky Thunder we at P-CS are very excited to hear of his return to writing and drawing a funny wrassle comic.
PORTLAND, Ore. 09/18/2025 — Multiple Eisner Award nominated cartoonist Kyle Starks (Peacemaker Tries Hard, Sexcastle, I Hate This Place) teams up with colorist extraordinaire Vladimir Popov (Where Monsters Lie, Fearscape) for the the upcoming no-holds-barred heist caper, Wrestle Heist. This five-issue miniseries from Image Comics will pin readers to the mat this December.
In Wrestle Heist, a former pro wrestler—who has a brush with death thanks to a crooked promoter—assembles a crew of fellow wrestlers he’s screwed over… to rob him blind during the biggest wrestling event of the year. Packed with body slams and backstabs this is a must-read for fans of over-the-top action.
“I am so excited to return to Image Comics—the place where all my Eisner nominations happened—with my new book Wrestle Heist which will be great for fans of wrestling, fans of heists or fans of having a great time while reading a comic!” said Starks. “I believe comics should be fun and I promise this one is a romp you don’t want to miss!”
Wrestle Heist #1 by Kyle Starks will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, December 17:
- Cover A by Starks
- Cover B Blank Sketch
- Cover C 1:10 copy incentive by Jesse Longeran
Wrestle Heist will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
