Chris Sanagan is the writer of Group of 7 Comics. Non-comic book writing credits include articles for Ontario History, The American Archivist, Spacing Toronto and the Guelph Mercury Tribune. Jason Lapidus is the artist of Group of 7 Comics. Prior to making comics, Jason taught art at the Royal Ontario Museum, and served as a Communication Professor at George Brown College. Together at Group of 7 Comics, they publish creator-owned independent comics including the acclaimed historical fiction series Group of 7 Comics. Filled with tales of daring, danger, the unknown and the unbelievable, Group of 7 has featured at conventions and festivals around the world. With a mission to tell great stories, Chris and Jason have won several awards from Sequential Comics for Best Comic Book, nominated for the Gene Day Award at the Joe Shuster Canadian Comic Book Awards, and favourite book from Canadian Geographic. Their latest graphic novel is Peregrines: Flights, Fiends & Fisticuffs.

Whether sneaking into a Bavarian castle, uncovering a secret cult beneath the ruins of Roman London, dodging death in the Rocky Mountains or fighting to liberate a subterranean paradise in the Alberta Badlands, the Peregrines will need to think fast and strike faster! Featuring four standalone adventures, Peregrines: Flights, Fiends, & Fisticuffs is the result of a purposefully frenetic approach to collaborative storytelling, each story written, illustrated and released in the span of a month. High energy and even higher stakes! Originally released as webcomics on Instagram and then printed in limited quantities, this volume collects the sold out Peregrines: The Obstacle Course and Peregrines: Londinium and soon-to-be-sold-out Peregrines: Hunter’s Moon and Peregrines: Badlands. It is everything that you love and have come to expect from Group of 7 Comics and their unique blend of pulpy historical fiction full of action, adventure and intrigue.
