John Layman and Nick Pitarra's Leviathan Delayed Till… Later

Published Sun, 27 Jan 2019 10:30:03 -0600

Leviathan, the comic book series by John Layman and Nick Pitarra, published last year from Image Comics, appears to have hit the schedule skids somewhat.

Leviathan #3 was a month late, out in October 2018. But there hasn't been hide nor scale since.

Well, Image Comics has made it official, with the final two issues, #4 and #5 now having their retailer orders cancelled. But Image promises they will be resolicited and published at a later date. Whether that will be before or after DC Comics publishes its own Leviathan series by Brian Bendis and Alex Maleev, we don't know.

Yeah, that's going to be a fun one. Layman tweets out,

Since I'm getting question at least one a day now: LEVIATHAN is not cancelled, but Image got (understandably) tired of pushing it back again & again, so took it off schedule until we can catch up. If you've seen detail @NickPitarra puts in you'll understand why it takes time.
