Second Series of the Youth-Focused Title Available on Free Digital Comics Platform
New York, N.Y. (July 7, 2020) – Fan The Flame Concepts LLC, an independent comic and graphic novel producer, has released the first issue of Neymar Jr. Comics’ Golazo: Summer Sessions. The all-ages series is available for Neymar Jr. Comics’ more than 3.1 million global followers to read for free on Fan The Flame’s unique digital comics platform at both www.NeymarJrComics.com or its mobile app, where readers can access more than 1,350 episodes across six languages.
The second series in the Golazo franchise, Summer Sessions was developed by New York Times-bestselling author and comic and graphic novel creator Jason M. Burns. This newest story opens with protagonists Ezekiel and Tram away at soccer camp. Then, a real mystery unfolds surrounding Neymar Jr.’s cleats, proving that perhaps reality is far more magical than the friends could ever imagine in the fantastical world of their favorite role-playing game of Knights of the Dragonscape could be.
“I am very pleased to see that the team developing Neymar Jr. Comics managed to do such a great job for so many kids and young people”, said Neymar Jr. “This new series is really cool and shows how teamwork and friendship are important at any stage of life.”
Golazo: Summer Sessions is the newest title tailored to Neymar Jr. Comics’ youthful audience’s mobile-driven habits and preferences. Short episodes of new comics are released five days per week, in a free, ad-supported user interface that publishes in six languages and utilizes multiple reading capabilities, including the Digitoons vertical scrolling format. In addition, free kids’ activity pages based on the series—
including coloring scenes, mazes and word-search puzzles—are being released in conjunction with the new title on the Neymar Jr. Comics website.
The new series features art by Rolando Mallada and Mauricio Caballero, cover art by Fernando Peniche, colors by Dustin Evans, and letters by Burns, Nick Deschenes and Ferdinand Velasco.
