First look at Kidthulhu, the adventures of a young elder god and his pet shoggoth

Kidthulhu is a new comic book coming this summer about the adventures of an elder god turned child and Shog, his trusty pet shoggoth. Martin Brandt was kind evil enough to send me some details about the project, which he co-created with Jason Stephens:

The first short story will appear in Reasonably Priced Comics #3 and a mini series is in the works, which is where that cover comes from. It is currently planned as a 4 issue arc. There will also be another short story in Reasonably Priced Comics #4 as well as cover feature.

Kidthulhu and Shog set out from the city of R'lyeh on a journey to experience this new world that has evolved around him as he slept below the waves. With the help of his Man-Nanny Nyarlathotep, Dagon-Boy, and Paulina the Cultist, Kidthulhu will travel from his city swarmed with cultists to the dungeons of the Piscean Lord and out into the world at large. Now if he could only figure out who keeps calling him.

The first issue will be debuted at Baltimore Comic Con August 20th & 21st. It will also be available online for purchase, details will be posted on http://www.kidthulhu.com.

A Kidthulhu Infinity issue is going to precede the miniseries and will come out in June. Also, Kidthulhu is so cool he already has his own papercraft toy:
