Legendary Comics Debuts Motion Trailer for CHAMPIONESS
The original YA graphic novel by Tarun Shanker and Kelly Zekas will be available in bookstores and online retailers on April 13, 2021
Official website and preorder available at: http://www.championess2021.com
Championess is based on the true story of Elizabeth Wilkinson, a female bare-knuckle boxer in 18th century London. Elizabeth, reimagined as half-Indian, and her sister Tess struggle to make ends meet and cover Tess’s debts. While Elizabeth works odd jobs at the local newspaper, the only way she knows how to make enough money to help them survive is her true passion, bareknuckle boxing. With Tess’s support, Elizabeth trains at the boxing facility of one of the most famous retired boxers and the only real fight promoter of any notoriety, James Figg. As Elizabeth trains with Figg and James Stokes, she confronts her personal demons of what destroyed her family and comes to terms with being the first half-Indian female boxer in a white male world. Available in bookstores and online retailers on April 13, 2021.
