Vault Hopes to 'Resonant' With Horror Fans in July

Credit to Comics Beat for popping the exclusive on this- Vault Comics is publishing Resonant, a new monthly from writer David Andry, artist Alejandro Aragon, with colors from Jason Wordie, letters from Deron Bennett, and Tim Daniel as the project designer.

The story takes place in a world ravaged by Waves, a phenomenon that unleashes the darkest impulses in humanity, with apocalyptic effects.

A decade has passed since the first Waves hit, unleashing humanity's darkest impulses and plunging the world into chaos. Paxton, a single father of three, must venture from the secluded haven they've built to restock the medicine his chronically-ill youngest son needs to survive. When the somewhat routine trip goes awry, Paxton and his children—now separated—will battle everything in their path to reunite.

Andry was inspired to write his own version of the Odyssey, by way of Y: The Last Man:

I was leaning out over a third floor balcony waiting for class to start. I thought about jumping. More accurately, I was worried that if I didn't step back, I would jump. Pre-Google and worried that if I talked to anyone about this impulse, they'd think I was crazy, I sat with this heavy on my mind for a long time. As a writer, I wanted to use it. Later, I found out that it was a fairly common urge called High Place Phenomenon or the Call of the Void. For nearly twenty years, the idea germinated in my brain, unable to find fertile soil in which to grow. And then, one afternoon doing the dishes, the world of Resonant sprouted, fully formed. Everyone would follow their Call of the Void. Everyone, all at the same time.
