SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES—RICK REMENDER & PAUL AZACETA SHOWCASE BOUNDARY-BREAKING HORROR WITH THE SEASONS LAUNCHING JANUARY 2025

/

The New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender (The Sacrificers, Grommets, Deadly Class) and artist Paul Azaceta (Outcast by Kirkman and Azaceta) will invite readers to the big top next year for an unforgettable show in the upcoming series, The Seasons. This all-new, ongoing series is set to launch out of Remender’s Giant Generator line in January 2025 from Image Comics.

Summer, Winter, Spring and Autumn are the Seasons Sisters, the daughters of the world-renowned Seasons Detectives. Ten years ago, their famous parents disappeared. Left to raise themselves, the sisters formed an unbreakable bond. Now that bond is tested as the sisters fall prey to sinister forces. The youngest sister, Spring, is the last hope of saving them from a fate worse than death. Will Spring be able to piece her shattered family back together before it’s too late for them all?

Kicking off with a double-length premiere issue, Remender and Azaceta weave an elevated tale of whimsical horror unlike anything ever experienced in comics.
Variant cover artist include: Jordi Lafebre, Kent Williams, Wes Craig and a sketch cover by Paul Azaceta

“Paul and I have worked tirelessly to create a world unlike anything we've ever done before,” Remender said, before addressing some of their more specific inspirations for this story. “Inspired by Miyazaki, Windsor McKay, and Tintin we wanted to make something that was delightful, poignant, and heartfelt. We hope you find the Seasons sisters as charming as we do. And the Ringleader and his imps as devilishly terrifying. Paul and Matheus have delivered one of the most spectacularly vibrant comics you're going to see in the modern marketplace.”

Azaceta added: “I’m having so much fun on this book. I think we took a big swing with it. We challenged ourselves and I couldn’t be happier with the result. The kind of project is what excites me about comics and what drives me to push my art in new directions.”

Exclusive six page sneak preview below:

The Seasons promises to be the perfect new read for fans of Brubaker & Martín’s Friday, Young & Corona’s Middlewest, Tynion IV & Dell'Edera’s Something Is Killing the Children, and boundary-breaking horror in all forms.

The Seasons #1 will be available Wednesday, January 15 at comic book shops and across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

NYT BESTSELLING WRITER REMENDER TEAMS WITH SCREENWRITER WARREN & ARTIST MOBILI FOR THE TIN CAN SOCIETY

/

PORTLAND, Ore. 6.13.2024 — The New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender (Napalm Lullaby, Deadly Class, LOW) and showrunner/writer

Peter Warren (The Auteur, The Incal, Kill Me) team up with fan-favorite artist Francesco Mobili (Old Man Hawkeye, X-Men, Daredevil, Secret Invasion) for an all-new cyberpunk, super-powered adventure in the forthcoming The Tin Can Society. This nine issue miniseries is set to launch from the Giant Generator line in September and published by Image Comics.

In The Tin Can Society, Johnny Moore is a world-famous tech mogul known as much for his work pioneering mobility aids for people with disabilities (like himself) as he is for moonlighting as the metal-suited vigilante, Caliburn. But when Johnny is found murdered and his suit stolen, his estranged childhood best friends reunite to solve the mystery of his murder. 

The Tin Can Society is a heartfelt and human look at the evolution of friendships across a lifetime, at disability and ableism, and the destructive power of fame. The book is a superhero story as if it was told through the lens of Stephen King. Not the horror version of King but more the Stand by Me version. It’s a story about a bunch of kids who grew up together and one of them became a superhero. Our book opens up with his death and the rest of them trying to figure out who did it.

“This is a story idea I’d had rattling around for a number of years, but it wasn’t until chatting it up with the amazing mind of Peter Warren that the project took shape, and it was immediately clear he was the man to write it,” said Remender. “This is the sort of story that demands nuanced characters and heart above all else, two things Peter excels at. Developing it with him has been an absolute joy. He’s taken this tale in wildly innovative directions, all informed by his deep love of comics, and we couldn’t be prouder of the result.

Giant Generator has a reputation for only working with the best artists and that continues here. The union of artist Francesco Mobili and colorist Chris Chuckry forms into one of the best-looking art Voltrons to ever grace sequential art. These guys are an absolute apocalypse of artistic greatness, and every page is a wonder to behold.”

Warren added: “I am beyond grateful to Giant Generator and Image for supporting this story about power, friendship and disability. Through the lens of one brilliant, disabled young man and the revolutionary suit he engineers to move more freely throughout the world, The Tin Can Society is a heartbreaking, tragic, and deeply human exploration of how a group of best friends handle shifting dynamics as they come of age. With stunning art by Francesco Mobili, and Chris Chuckry’s elegant color, The Tin Can Society is a page-turning murder mystery about childhood friendships tested by ableism, celebrity, wealth and jealousy.”

“I think love is a big part of The Tin Can Society,” said Mobili. “Starting from the love we are putting into the book, up to the love leading this group of friends through their lives. A love that allows room for other feelings when life leaves its mark and terrible things happen. This is a deeply human story about friendship, disability, life, death and a murder… and yeah, there’s also some super hero stuff in it! Thanks to Rick and Peter for having me involved in this great adventure!”

The Tin Can Society #1 will be in comic book shops on Wednesday, September 11.

The Tin Can Society will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play

NAPALM LULLABY - DARK POWER IS THREATENED IN UPCOMING REMENDER & BENGAL LAUNCH IN MARCH 2024

/

The bestselling creative duo behind fan-favorite series Death or Glory—Rick Remender and Bengal—reteam for an all-new dystopian epic in, Napalm Lullaby. This ongoing series is set to launch from Image Comics/Giant Generator in March 2024.

What if a child with unimaginable power was discovered and raised to believe he was God by a cult built upon hatred and populated by zealots utterly confident in the purity and absolute moral authority of their religion? Enter a world ruled by The Magnificent Leader, where just such a cult imposed their will on an entire world to create the ultimate theocracy. Join up and buy in—or be cast out to suffer in the toxic slums with the masses of humanity.

The story of Napalm Lullaby begins 50 years after the cult’s subjugation of Earth, when two of the messiah’s bastard children—each with powers that are strange and difficult to control—set out to escape the slums of their birth. Determined to infiltrate the Magnificent Leader’s domed fortress of adulation, they’ll stop at nothing to kill the man responsible for the nightmare they were raised in.

Issue #1 will feature eye-popping variant covers by Daniel Warren Johnson, Sanford Green, JG Jones, Andrew Robinson, Yanick Paquette, James Harren, Davi Go and Jeff Dekal

“Napalm Lullaby is my first foray into superheroes since I left Marvel a decade ago,” said Remender. “At one point in time, I promised myself never to return to this genre—but when this idea hit, it was too exciting not to make it real. Fortunately, my longtime collaborator and friend Bengal agreed, and we set out to make an apocalyptic superhero story unlike anything you've seen or read. We’ve been developing this story for years and it couldn't have more love dumped into it. Ben has made sure every single page is a work of art.”

Bengal added: “It was hard keeping Napalm Lullaby a secret for so many years. This is a dream project that I’ve been so eager to show off. I'm ecstatic that soon we’ll take readers into this world, part Road Warrior and part Superman. I love working on strange, superpowered beings and I took great care to create, with Rick, characters we REALLY care for.”

Napalm Lullaby #1 will be available at comic book shops in March 2024. Napalm Lullaby will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

GROMMETS - DEADLY CLASS WRITER RICK REMENDER TEAMS WITH CELEB COMEDIAN BRIAN POSEHN, ARTIST BRETT PARSON & COLORIST MORENO DINISIO TO LAUNCH COMIC BOOK SERIES IN MAY 2024

/

Bestselling writer Rick Remender (Deadly Class, The Scumbag) teams with co-writer and Emmy Award winning comedian Brian Posehn (The Secret History of the War on Weed), artist Brett Parson (Tank Girl), and colorist Moreno Dinisio (Black Science), for an all-new, ongoing comic book series titled, Grommets. This ’80s-infused coming-of-age story is set to launch in May 2024 from Remender’s Giant Generator imprint at Image Comics.

In Grommets, two outcast best friends navigate the Sacramento suburbs of 1984, where they find a home in skateboard culture and punk rock. Grommets is both an authentic look at ’80s skate culture—a snapshot of the generation that turned skating into a worldwide phenomenon—as well as a heartfelt coming-of-age story following two friends from troubled homes navigating their damage in an era when no one cared.

Grommets will feature a slew of variant covers by such artists as: David Lapham (Stray Bullets), Andrew Robinson, Alex Riegel, Chuck BB, and Jon Wayshak.

The series’ title sprints from skater slang. A “grommet” is a commonly used term for a young up-and-coming skater or surfer. Since the ’60s it’s been used to describe the next generation of kids who, with youthful exuberance, love the sport but want to put their spin on it.

“I spent the first 11 years of my life being humiliated in competition team sports… but that all ended the day I rode skateboard. I spent the summer of 1984 skating from morning to night. Soon all my friends were there with me. Life became more fun than it had ever been before,” said Remender. “The fun wasn’t based on winning; the competition was healthy, you were always backed up by a pal giving you support, telling you to keep at it until you nailed the trick. My skateboard was everything: it was how I got around, it was how I identified myself, it was how I spent all my free time before and after school, on every weekend, and most importantly... it was ours. The kids owned this sport.”

Posehn added: “Like my old pal, Rick, I too sucked at mainstream sports and that led to my love of skateboarding, which I also sucked at. But that's the beauty of the sport, it didn't matter how good I was. It was the most fun I’d ever had and no one in my crew gave the slightest shit if I couldn’t ollie, it wasn’t about one-upmanship. Skater kids were different, funny, smart and they hated what I hated: Mainstream sports, mainstream music, Camaros, tough guys and misogyny. It was less of a sport and more of a lifestyle. We were misfits before it was cool.”

This story is for them: the skater kids who ruled the world.

Grommets #1 will be available at comic book shops in May 2024. Grommets will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

DUST TO DUST COMIC BOOK SERIES SEES SERIAL KILLER AT LARGE DURING THE GREAT DEPRESSION IN 2024 LAUNCH

/

NOT FINAL COVER

Fan-favorite co-writers JG Jones (Wanted) and Phil Bram team up—with Jones on art at well—to bring a unique, historical thriller to life in the forthcoming Dust to Dust. This 10-issue limited series will launch from the Image Comics/Giant Generator in 2024.

In the darkest days of the Great Depression, death stalks the Dust Bowl. As towering dust storms blast the parched Oklahoma panhandle, farmers try to flee the failing town of New Hope, but no one gets far. Battling his own demons, Sheriff Meadows teams up with Sarah, a traveling photo-journalist, in a desperate fight to stop the Death that rides the Dusters.

“When I was a kid, I loved listening to the old folks tell stories of the difficulties living through the Great Depression, and surviving the American Dust Bowl. It was almost inconceivable what these poor people lived through as the result of rapid modernization, politics, war, and blind greed,” said Jones. “Massive walls of dust that blew so hard they sandblasted everything in their path. Cattle killed by crackling rods of static electricity. Biblical plagues of hungry jackrabbits so dense it was like the earth itself was on the move. Shellshocked, disfigured veterans staggering along lonely highways, looking for food and shelter. Entire communities packed their meager belongings and fled to California to look for work. I wondered how it could possibly be any worse. Then it occurred to me: No one is allowed to leave. Death rides the dust storms, and the town of New Hope is directly in its path.”

Bram added: “It must be 15 or 16 years ago now since I first met Jeff. We hit it right off over Dylan, John Prine, Sam Shepard, Raymond Carver, Goya, Otto Dix, and the movie No Country For Old Men. But when I told him I was an Okie, his eyes really lit up. He had this idea for a story that takes place in Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl. Jeff pitched me the basic concept and asked if I would be interested in writing this story with him about a world that is no more. It’s all there in his spectacular art, in the people, in their faces, in their eyes. You almost don’t even need the words. Jeff, I thank you so much! You are my friend and you are my hero. I have never seen anyone pull off such an incredible feat in all my life!”

Rick Remender, architect behind the Giant Generator imprint, added: “I couldn't be more excited about this, the first book that Giant Generator has published outside of work that I have written. As soon as JG told me about a serial killer in the dust bowl I was in. And then I saw the pages… This book is something special."

Dust to Dust #1 will be available at comic book shops in 2024. Dust to Dust will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

Remender will collaborate with many of these artists on new projects, while some will be writing their own material, and others will be joined by writers yet-to-be-announced. All creators will retain full rights on books owned 100% by the creative teams.

"I've spent the last quarter century building creator-owned comic books and having Image give me the chance to take that knowledge to help other creators follow their bliss and do the same makes me incredibly happy," said Remender. "Working with this murderer's row on the second wave of Giant Generator books has me reinvigorated, I wake up every morning eager to see what these incredible monsters have been up to. As we've proven over the years, we make outstanding comics because we only work with top creators, each given the time and support to do the best work of their careers, work they own, work that lives on for years and years in premiere formats. We focus on the creation of new, wholly original, evergreen reads that stand out from the whirlwind of monthly comics and have proven to stand the test of time.”

The first launches out of this new wave of Giant Generator talent were unveiled during the Giant Generator New York Comic Con panel today and include Grommets by Rick Remender, Brian Posehn, and Brett Parson, Napalm Lullaby by Rick Remender and Bengal, and Dust To Dust by JG Jones and Phil Bram which was… wow…. originally announced back in 2009.

REMENDER & FIUMARA’S THE SACRIFICERS SELLS OUT INSTANTLY AT THE DISTRIBUTOR LEVEL, RUSHED BACK TO PRINT

/

PORTLAND, Ore. 08/11/2023 — Image Comics is fast-tracking the debut issue of The Sacrificers back to print this week in order to keep up with escalating interest in the dark new sci-fi adventure. This hot new series by New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender (Low, Deadly Class, Uncanny X-Force) and superstar artist Max Fiumara (Amazing Spider-Man, Four Eyes, Lucifer) hit big with fans last week and sold out instantly at the distributor level.

The Sacrificers has been one of the most anticipated new launches of the year out of Image and was one of the publisher’s 2023 Free Comic Book Day titles and got the star treatment this year at San Diego Comic-Con with art on prominent display at Image’s new booth layout at the show.

"HOLY $&*%! First time I've ever sold out of a book, it's so hard to believe," said Fiumara. "I feel such a huge joy to see how well received the book is and I couldn't be happier!"

This series is the first in an exciting wave of new content out of Rick Remender’s Giant Generator Studios line of titles and the early momentum for the series sets the stage for more storytelling twists and turns ahead for readers. The drumbeat of fanfare will continue with exciting soon-to-be-announced Giant Generator programming at New York Comic Con in October.

Remender added: "Max and Dave are such incredible artists and wonderful people, it makes me happy to see everyone respond so positively to our hard work together. We are telling the story from a place of real passion, giving it everything they've got, and it only gets better from here."

In The Sacrificers, readers are introduced to a harmonious paradise thanks to five families who make everything perfect...by tithing one child per household to keep the peace. Now, as that bill comes due, a son expected to give everything for a family that never loved him—and an affluent daughter determined to destroy utopia—must unite to end one generation's unnaturally protracted reign.

Available at comic book shops on Wednesday, September 9. The Sacrificers is also available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

THE HOLY ROLLER - COMEDIAN ANDY SAMBERG & FALL OUT BOY’S JOE TROHMAN TEAM WITH RICK REMENDER & ARTIST ROLAND BOSCHI TO BOWL OVER FANS WITH NEW TITLE

/

PORTLAND, Ore. 07/21/2023 — Comedian Andy Samberg (SNL, Palm Springs) and Fall Out Boy's Joe Trohman join Rick Remender (Deadly Class, The Scumbag, LOW, The Sacrificers) and fan favorite artist Roland Boschi (The Scumbag, Wolverine) for the upcoming series The Holy Roller. This bowling-themed bonanza will strike this November from Image Comics as part of the ever-growing Giant Generator Studios line.

The Holy Roller is a tale of a trick-bowling-ball-wielding vigilante battling to liberate his home by bowling the perfect game—against evil! Kingpin meets Inglourious Basterds meets Batman (that old chestnut) with equal parts action and humor, and a special introductory issue featuring 42 pages of story—two issues of story for the price of one.

The Holy Roller debut will also feature an impressive lineup of variant covers by such top talent artists as: J.H. Williams III, Brett Parson, Keron Grant, Brian Level, Mike Hawthorne, and Rafael Albuquerque.

“If you have ever found yourself wondering, ‘Why is there no comic book about a vigilante hero who smashes people's faces in with a bowling ball?’ you are in LUCK, bruv!" said Samberg.

“Sometimes the best stories start off as silly, over-the-top ideas that after a little while become clear to everyone in the room are actually great. This is one of those,” said Remender. “This is a hilarious and poignant story, full of big action, and told from a place of real passion.”

Trohman added: “This is an intensely personal book that will resonate with all. A hyper-stylized yarn, but informed by the bleak reality we’ve all come to know. It’s also your one-stop-shop for a bad-ass hometown hero kicking, punching, and bowling-balling Neo-Nazis into oblivion!”

To care for his ailing father, pro-bowler Levi Coen is forced to quit his dream job and return to his hometown, which he soon discovers has been overrun by Neo-Nazis! With only his bowling ball collection to defend himself, Levi becomes THE HOLY ROLLER!

The Holy Roller #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, November 22. The Holy Roller will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

THE SACRIFICERS - RICK REMENDER TEAMS WITH MAX FIUMARA FOR HIGHLY ANTICIPATED NEW TITLE

/

PORTLAND, Ore. 05/19/2023 — The New York Times bestselling writer Rick Remender (Deadly Class, LOW) joins forces with superstar artist Max Fiumara (Amazing Spider-Man, Lucifer) to take readers to the ethereal, science fiction world of The Sacrificers. This all-new, ongoing series—which was teased to fans with a special Free Comic Book Day edition earlier this month—will officially launch in August from Image Comics.

This epic new story joins Remender’s vast body of beloved creator-owned work with top tier artists under the Giant Generator imprint at Image. In this tradition, the debut issue of The Sacrificers will feature eye-melting variant covers by artists Julian Totino Tedesco, Tula Lotay, Jenny Frison, Matteo Scalera, J.G. Jones, Nic Klein, J.H. Williams III, and Mike Mignola alongside series artist Fiumara.

“Max has long been one of my very favorite artists," said Remender. "We worked together briefly on a Spider-Man story years ago and he’s always been at the top of my list of artists to reunite with. I think what we’ve developed here is one of the most beautiful and unique stories in the marketplace, in no small part due to Max and color master Dave McCaig’s next level world creating. It is truly unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.”

Fiumara added: "The Sacrificers is the book I’ve always dreamed of working on. The pitch completely hooked me with its combination of emotional human dilemmas, exciting worlds, and eccentric characters. I’m having a blast designing it. The collaboration with Rick has been terrific, his way of thinking of story is amazingly simple and effective. He creates strong scenes that I manifest, we complement each other quite well, and Dave is doing such beautiful work with colors.”

In The Sacrificers, tomorrow is a harmonious paradise thanks to five families who make everything perfect…for the price of one child per household. Now, as that bill comes due, a son expected to give everything for a family that never loved him and an affluent daughter determined to destroy utopia who must now unite to end one generation’s unnaturally protracted reign.

The Sacrificers #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, August 2. The Sacrificers will also be available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
