Following on from the excitement of the announcement of Quantum, the new bi-monthly aimed at the newsagent audience, Time Bomb Comics has revealed the full content list and the cover.

Quantum #1's stunning cover comes from David Morris and Ben Lopez and features the characters starring inside. It reveals a mix of both brand-new content and existing characters who have become favourites with Time Bomb's already-established readership.

Time Bomb Comics Publisher, Steve Tanner, spoke about his hopes for the new comic and the decision behind Quantum's opening lineup:

"There's a whole readership out there that don't buy comics online, at conventions or even comic shops. Quantum is what we've produced for those readers, but they're also unfamiliar with some of the characters Time Bomb has become known for. Quantum seemed a great opportunity to create brand new stories with those characters, as well as presenting again one or two strips from the past that we think deserved inclusion. 
"Rather than straightforward reprints, though, the two stories in Quantum issue one that have been previously published have been given a bit of an upgrade so even those familiar with  get something new. Not every issue of Quantum will contain reprint material but when it does we want it to be a bit special. Not least because we're hoping that a lot of our existing readers will come along for the Quantum ride too – via their newsagent, of course!"
