Political tensions escalate this September in No Man’s Land by Szymon Kudrański

Posted on by

The rising star creator behind such breakout hits as Something Epic and Blood Commandment—Szymon Kudrański—invites fans to the frigid Diomede Islands in his upcoming thriller No Man’s Land. This four issue miniseries is set to launch this September from Image Comics. This is Kudrański’s third solo title out of his creative house, One Man Art.

For three months each year, you can walk from the USA to Russia across an ice bridge—a frozen path known as the Ice Curtain. In 1963, when the body of a young woman is discovered on this icy no-man’s land, the already fragile relationship between the superpowers threatens to collapse. With nuclear tensions rising, an FBI agent and a KGB operative must solve the murder—before the ice melts… and war ignites.

The Diomede Islands represent one of the most fascinating and geopolitically fraught locations on Earth. For three months each year, a natural ice bridge forms between the United States and Russia—raising a compelling question: who holds jurisdiction over this frozen passage, in part or in full?

No Man’s Land

No Man’s Land #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, September 17:

  • Cover A by Kudrański 
  • Cover B by Kudrański & Brian Michael Bendis
  • Cover C movie homage to Se7en by Kudrański 
  • Cover D movie homage to The Hunt for Red October by Kudrański 
  • Cover E “noir” variant by Kudrański 
  • Cover F movie homage to White Out by Kudrański 
  • Cover G Blank Sketch 

Appalachia Comics Project launches June 17 on Kickstarter with a kickoff event at the Pigeon Community Multicultural Center

Appalachia Comics Project

Tomorrow, June 17th, the Appalachia Comics Project will formally launch with a national Kickstarter campaign and kickoff event at the Pigeon Community Multicultural Center in Waynesville, NC. The kickoff event is a celebration featuring local comic book and graphic novel creators as well as the survivors telling their story in the ACP’s first graphic history — Islands in the Sky: The Story of Hurricane Helene as told by those who survived.

Luminaries such as Barbara Kingsolver and José Andrés are expected to make public statements of support upon launch and the book will include work by noted scientist Dr. David Easterling, former Chief of the Scientific Services Division at NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center, among others, including multiple Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winners.

WHEN:           Tuesday, June 17, 2025
                        6:00pm (remarks begin at 7:15pm)

WHERE:         Pigeon Community Multicultural Center
                        450 Pigeon Street
                        Waynesville, NC 28786

The Appalachia Comics Project (ACP) is an initiative formed by local and national comic and graphic novel creators to (1) create a nonfiction graphic history of the Hurricane Helene disaster in southern Appalachia, and (2) work toward a self-sustaining comics publishing initiative that creates comics works for, from, and about Appalachia.

So far, ACP has paired more than a dozen local survivors with renowned comic creators like Brian Michael Bendis, Gene Luen Yang, Matt Fraction, Nate Powell, and others to create Islands in the Sky as a monument to the storm that changed everything. Harrowing, inspiring, humorous, and tragic–this history is being brought to life in comics to create a first-hand account of what really happened by those that lived it. Survivor accounts include Dr. David Easterling, former Chief of the Scientific Services Division at NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, NC presenting a science-based exploration of what occurred.
