FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Ignition Sequence: SDCC – Ignition Press Reveals Voyeur Merch and Burlesque Show Los Angeles, CA (June 27th, 2025) – Ignition Press is excited to reveal that fans attending Comic Con International in San Diego will be the first to secure a copy of the limited-edition Voyeur First
Look preview book from Leah Willams (X-Factor, Gotham City Sirens) and David Baldeón (Domino, Harley Quinn). This first look will be readers’ first opportunity to preview one of the new publisher’s launch titles debuting in comic stores on September 10th, 2025.
Copies of the Voyeur First Look will be available for purchase at the publisher’s boutique pop-up, the Ignition Press Room, located in the heart of the Gaslamp District at 643 G Street. Quantities will be limited on a daily basis and sold on a first come, first served basis with a per-customer purchase limit.
The first opportunity to get your hands on the ultra-limited Voyeur First Look Asscan Edition featuring a variant cover will be during the Voyeur burlesque show on Friday, July 25th at 8:30 pm PT, which will take place at the Ignition Press Room. To celebrate the release of the upcoming erotic fine art heist series, Ignition Press has partnered with Herbal Elegance Revue to host a burlesque performance inspired by the story’s steamy romance, elevated fine art, and exotic luxury resort location, as well as the music playlist used by Williams and Baldeón as inspiration while creating the series. The show is produced by Gwen Ruby of Herbal Elegance Revue. The first 100 fans (age 21+) to make a purchase at the Ignition Press Room will be invited to become voyeurs themselves and receive a free ticket to attend the special one-night only performance on Friday night. Tickets will be allocated to 50 tickets for customers on Thursday, July 24th and 50 tickets for customers on Friday, July 25th on a first come, first served basis. One ticket will be given out per person, per purchase.
"I'm so excited to be able to bring Herbal Elegance Revue to the San Diego Comic-Con crowd in the most creative way outside of our norm,” said producer Gwen Ruby. “Burlesque dancers are typically just asked to bring our 'best and biggest acts', so getting to incorporate elements of
Voyeur into our performances has been an incredibly fun challenge. It's pop culture nerd meets art school nerd--all with a cheeky flair!"
The Voyeur burlesque show will feature a bar sponsored by Ignition Press and each free ticket includes two drink tickets during the event. Members of the press who wish to attend the Voyeur burlesque show should inquire with Ignition Press’ marketing contact.
In addition to the Voyeur First Look and Voyeur First Look Asscan Edition, Ignition Press will debut exclusive Voyeur limited edition merchandise at the Ignition Press Room including a premium T-shirt featuring art by Paulina Ganucheau, a tote bag featuring art by Yanick Paquette, sticker, enamel pin, and an art print featuring art by David Baldeón. As previously announced, Leah Williams and David Baldeón will be in attendance for scheduled signings throughout Comic Con International.
“Building community through memorable, authentic, experiential marketing has been at the heart of our plans for Ignition Press since its formation,” added Ignition Press Publisher Filip Sablik. “When our Marketing Director Bre Sarpy brought the idea of a burlesque show inspired by Voyeur to the table, all of us at Ignition, Leah, and David enthusiastically leapt at the chance to create an experience that will have fans fall in love with the series like we have.”
