San Francisco, CA, September 18, 2014 – VIZ Media, LLC (VIZ Media),
the largest publisher, distributor and licensor of manga, graphic
novels and anime in North America, expands its roster of original titles
based on the popular action/adventure brand BRAVEST WARRIORS with the
release of BRAVEST WARRIORS: THIS WAY OR THAT - THE GREAT CORE CAPER on October 7th.
Set
to be published under the company’s Perfect Square imprint, the latest
BRAVEST WARRIORS title was written by Chris “Doc” Wyatt with
illustrations by Corin Howell. The chapter book-style release presents
multiple story options that give readers a variety of possible narrative
options to decide the course of the plot. BRAVEST WARRIORS: THIS WAY OR
THAT - THE GREAT CORE CAPER is rated ‘A’ for All Ages and will carry an

In
THE GREAT CORE CAPER, the planet Goober-Delta-9 will lose orbit if its
stolen planetary core is not returned. Where is that core? In the most
secure vault in the Galaxy – beneath SID BEEMER-BOOF’S FUN PLANET, the
biggest amusement park in the known universe. The Bravest Warriors must
recruit a daring team, including Plum, Catbug, President Memory Donk,
Professor Brain Dog 7 and the Emotion Lord, to help them on their
mission. Each team member must play their part in order to pull off the
most outrageous heist of all time! And on EVERY page, the reader is in
complete control of what happens next!
“The galaxy-hopping band of Bravest Warriors take off in a great new way for their first ever THIS
WAY OR THAT adventure that lets the reader decide exactly how the story
unfolds,” says Beth Kawasaki, Senior Editorial Director. “Everyone who
worked on THE GREAT CORE CAPER is a BRAVEST WARRIORS fan, and editor
Joel Enos and the creative team were thrilled to pay homage to the
classic adventure books from when they were kids! Chris Wyatt’s
hilarious and eccentric story paired with Corin Howell’s endearing
illustrations captures the BRAVEST WARRIORS spirit, and gets better and
better with repeated readings. Become part of the action and help decide
just how the teenage heroes will save a planet in peril!”

meet themselves! The web series won a Shorty Award in 2013 for Best Web
