Long Beach, NY -- February 21, 2006 - Independent Publisher Terminal
Press will be debuting Phony-Baloney: Phony Island Phiasco, their collaboration with Planet6 Studios, at the NY Comic Con this Friday, February 24th.

When the Mayor calls upon his police force to work security at Phony Island amusement park, these little piggies somehow end up as the main
attraction.

Phony-Baloney: Phony Island Phiasco finds our boys in pink and blue up against the Japanese Hot Dog eating champ in a battle of gurgitation greatness.

Phony-Baloney was created by Graffiti Legend Seen and is also a toy line available from his company, Planet6 Studios. The book features Toxic Teddies artist Rolo Ledesma, Brian Ferrara and Narek Gevorgian, the writer and artist team from Crowpsey and Silent Assassin and graffiti artist Phetus on inks.

Initially the title will only be available at the New York Comic
Convention, the TerminalPress.com, Tattoo Seen in Bronx NY and a few select retailers until a wide release this spring. There will also be a very limited number of photo variant covers featuring Seen available to the public only at their convention appearances.

Terminal Press owner and Phony-Baloney writer Brian Ferrara says of the title, "It's like Police Academy, without any of the Steve Guttenberg and two hours of extra footage dedicated to Michael Winslow making helicopter and robot noises. It's that awesome." This is the first book in a series of collaborations between Planet6 and Terminal Press.

More information is available at TerminalPress.com and Planet6.com including previews and ordering information for both the comic and toy lines. You can visit Terminal Press at booth 430 during the New York Comic Con and catch them at the Wizard World and San Diego conventions this season.
