July 6, 2011 - PRLog -- IN MAPS & LEGENDS, an ongoing digital comic illustrated by Niki Smith and written by Michael Jasper, continues with its seventh issue on Wednesday, July 6th, 2011.

You can read the comic in the digital format you prefer, on whichever ebook device you own -- the Android Phone, Windows Phone, or iPhone; the Kindle, the Nook, the iPad, or the Samsung Galaxy Tab; or on your desktop, laptop, or the Web (PDF, CBZ, HTML, and Flash).

You can purchase all issues of the ongoing, contemporary fantasy comic from many different online distributors, including Comixology, Graphic.ly, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple's iBooks, the Google eBookstore, MyDigitalComics, and DriveThruComics. Issues sell for just $.99 each.

The target audience is for fans of The Sandman, Unwritten, and LOST -- supernatural urban fantasy with a hint of science fiction wrapped up in it.

Here's a quick summary of the seventh issue:

All maps lead to one place on the ravaged world of Stryla: Balasander's Crest, an active volcano at the top of the world. And that's where Kait and her friends, old and new, must travel, though the price they must pay once they're inside the Crest may be too high for any of them to bear. IN MAPS & LEGENDS 6 mixes together urban fantasy, science fiction, & steampunk, with art by Niki Smith and story by Michael Jasper. A winner of the November 2009 Zuda Comics competition hosted by DC Comics, the story continues here!
