We started SMASH in 2009 as a webcomic. Then, in 2013, it was published as a graphic novel, Smash: Trial by Fire, by Candlewick Press. The book has earned rave reviews and a bunch of awards, not to mention a legion of devoted fans, young and old alike.

Right now we're in the process of making Book 2 for Candlewick. And now we've relaunched the SMASH webcomic to keep our fans (and ourselves!) entertained during the long process of bringing a graphic novel to publication.

The new webcomic will feature internet-only "side" stories that fit alongside and in-between the books. You'll see Smash battling brand-new villains in fun, action-packed, fast-paced comics that are ideal for online reading -- and for all ages!

The webcomic updates every Tuesday on our Tumblr page, for a total of 4 pages per month, and is completely free to read. Come back each week for more Smashing excitement!
