The first Captain Ginger sequence was a part of AHOY’s preliminary sequence of titles, debuting in October of 2018. The preliminary four-issue miniseries was adopted by a six-issue season two, subtitled Dogworld, which launched two of its six points in early 2020 earlier than the pandemic-caused shutdown of the direct market. The remaining 4 points had been launched digitally, and the entire sequence is obtainable bodily in a collected version.
In a press release asserting The Last Feeder, Moore and Brigman expressed their enthusiasm at returning to the world of Captain Ginger and his fearless crew:
“I’d rather write CAPTAIN GINGER than anything else in the world, so I’m grateful to AHOY for giving us the chance to continue our story,” stated author Stuart Moore. “This time, we decided to tell a self-contained, Strange New Worlds-type adventure that, at the same time, tackles some of the biggest questions in the Captain’s universe. All his life, Ginger has wondered about his father, and all the evolved cats have wondered about the long-dead humans who created them. Now the answers are in their grasp—maybe.”
“As always, June Brigman and Roy Richardson tackled this with all the feline love and knowledge any cat-lover could ask for,” added Moore. “We were lucky enough to snag the legendary Walter Simonson for a cat-tastic variant. And never fear, dog lovers. We’ve got you covered too!”
“It’s always nice to come home to Captain Ginger,” stated artist June Brigman. “Honestly, it’s a lot like my home, but with ray guns and spaceships.”
