Blackbox Comics is announcing a shared storytelling continuity, the Blackbox Universe, among its titles with their September 2024 solicits and solicitations. As a result they will make the first arc of Devil's Dominion available again in a sealed pack containing issues #1-5 before the launch of the second arc with issue #6 in October. In addition to the Devil's Dominion readers' pack, Blackbox is offering Empath #1-5 as single issues for readers to catch up on.
"We've been teasing things out since the very beginning," confirms Blackbox Comics publisher and creator, Dimitrios Zaharakis, "but now feels like the right time to officially unveil the existence of our shared universe between titles. While everything can still be read independently on its own, you'll start to see more connections and ties between the series – even the occasional guest appearance, such as the one we placed at the end of Empath #5. You could consider it the equivalent of a post-credits sequence, which sets up things to come."
The solicitations include issue #2 of their latest series – the supernatural western, Deadly Trails. "We've been producing great work across a broad range of genres for over seven years now, and it's exciting to reveal what we've been up to," adds Zaharakis. "We don't want readers to feel lost or overwhelmed, but for those who enjoy a deeper experience where things overlap and add layers to certain storylines, there will be a lot more to discover and theorize about. I hope people will join us on this journey to find out what links the Blackbox Universe at its core."
