All You Need Is Loot: Announcing Munchkin Love Shark Baby
AUSTIN, Texas (August 16, 2014) – Steve Jackson Games invites you to show your love the Munchkin way – by stabbing your way to victory, of course. Katie Cook, writer and illustrator of the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comic book, has teamed up with Steve Jackson Games to bring you the perfect 15-card booster for Valentine’s Day: Munchkin Love Shark Baby.
"I was so excited to be asked to do the drawings for this Munchkin set!" said Katie Cook. "I love this game and knowing that I now have my own, Love Shark infested bit of it fills me with glee!"
"Love is good," said Andrew Hackard, Munchkin Czar, "and munchkins love nothing more than smiting monsters and stealing their hearts. And loot. Katie's art is adorable. It’s a perfect fit for this set."
Munchkin Love Shark Baby is due to release in January 2015.
