Die #1, from Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans is out from Image Comics is out this Wednesday. It is great. Pitched as 'goth Jumanji', 'what happened to the kids from the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon after the show finished' and'not like Stranger Things, honest' and 'okay mayyybe a bit like IT', it does have strong coincidental vibes from the new Riverdale TV series. You know, if it was really good. The sins of the past revisited on the present kinda thing. And a world away…

So obviously there are retailer exclusive variant covers coming too.

Comic Mint cover by Stephanie Hans.

Forbidden Planet/Big Bang recoloured cover by Stephanie Hans.

Emma Vieceli's cover for One Stop Comics.

Mike Rooth's variants for Sad Lemon comics,

And of course the usual covers for everyone else from Stephanie Hans, Jamie McKelvie and Matt Wilson.

I do hope you pick this up. If nothing else it looks bloody beautiful…

THE WICKED + THE DIVINE writer KIERON GILLEN teams up with artist supernova STEPHANIE HANS (THE WICKED + THE DIVINE 1831, Journey Into Mystery) for her first ongoing comic! DIE is a pitch-black fantasy where a group of forty-something adults have to deal with the returning unearthly horror they barely survived as teenage role-players. If Kieron's in a rush, he describes it as "Goth Jumanji." That only captures a sliver of what you'll find in oversized debut issue-where fantasy gets all too real.In Shops: Dec 05, 2018
