Image Comics' Full December 2023 Solicits With Pete Townshend

Image Comics solicits and solicitations for December 2023 are out, leading with Pete Townshend's Life House, all the way to The Walking Dead.

Image Comics solicits and solicitations for December 2023 are up and out, leading with Pete Townshend's Life House – and I do like to imagine what Eric Stephenson's face will have been like when this landed on his desk. There's a new Brubaker/Phillips crime noir, the return of Adventureman and the welcoming of new titles with Bloodrick, The Bloody Dozen, Duke, Our Bones Dust and more.

PETE TOWNSHEND'S LIFE HOUSE HC
ON SALE DECEMBER 20
BASED ON MATERIALS BY PETE TOWNSHEND
STORY JAMES HARVEY DAVID HINE
ART JAMES HARVEY MAX PRENTIS
COVER JAMES HARVEY DEAN PARIS
An original graphic novel based on rock music legend Pete Townshend's 1970 screenplay of the same name, which inspired The Who's 1971 globally bestselling and universally beloved album, Who's Next.
Set in a dystopian future where music has been outlawed, LIFE HOUSE follows a small band of rebels who stage an underground concert in an effort to undermine a tyrannical leader…and free Britain and all of humanity.
This graphic novelization is co-written by Doom Patrol's JAMES HARVEY and Spider-Man Noir's DAVID HINE, with art by both HARVEY and Australian visual artist MAX PRENTIS, lettering by MICAH MYERS, and inks by Eisner Award-winning artist MICK GRAY. It is edited by the former Dark Horse editor, HANNAH MEANS-SHANNON, and features a massive vinyl LP format (12.25" x 12.25"). This is a must-have for any serious music collectors, rock fans, and pop culture aficionados! Originally envisioned as a sci-fi rock epic to follow up The Who's charttopping rock opera Tommy, and put aside 50 years ago-in favor of Who's Next songs like "Baba O'Riley," "Won't Get Fooled Again," and "Behind Blue Eyes"-LIFE HOUSE will finally take center stage. Also available in a SLIPCASE EDITION, featuring a vegan leather-bound slipcase!

STORY ED BRUBAKER
ART SEAN PHILLIPS JACOB PHILLIPS
COVER SEAN PHILLIPS

ED BRUBAKER and SEAN PHILLIPS, bestselling creators of PULP, RECKLESS, and CRIMINAL, are back with a new original graphic novel that readers will be obsessed with… A boarding house full of druggies. A neglected housewife. A young girl who thinks she's a superhero. A cop who wants to be left alone. And a private detective looking for a runaway girl. These stories collide one fateful summer in WHERE THE BODY WAS, a tale of love and murder in the suburbs, told from a dozen different points of view. All the neighbors on the block have an opinion about the murder and how it happened, but which of them is telling the truth? WHERE THE BODY WAS is a tour-de-force from grandmasters ED BRUBAKER and SEAN PHILLIPS. Starting with a map of the crime scene, this murder mystery follows the ripples of this killing as they echo through decades of love and loss and passion and violence. Like a true crime podcast crossed with a long-lost diary, WHERE THE BODY WAS is unlike anything BRUBAKER & PHILLIPS have ever done and a must-have for all their avid fans!

can't even begin to imagine why anyone would ever want to do anything else.
