BOOM! Studios has announced that Suicide Risk, the first original ongoing series from an independent publisher by Eisner Award-nominated author Mike Carey has sold out at the distributor level and the publisher had to rush to a second printing. Comic book fans should keep in mind first printings of Suicide Risk #1 may still be found at the local comic shop nearest you.

Super-powered people are inexplicably rising from the streets and there’s a big problem: Too many supervillains, not enough superheroes. Heroes are dying, and cops are dying twofold. Humanity is under-powered and good people are suffering untold tragedies trying to stem the flow. Beat cop Leo Winters is one of those struggling to make a difference. And the answer just might come in the form of two lowlifes with a dark secret. Joining Carey is rising artistic star Elena Casagrande and cover artists Tommy Lee Edwards and Stephanie Hans. Suicide Risk is a high octane, mind-bending series created by one of the industry’s greatest storytellers.

Suicide Risk #1 second print ships with a must-have all new cover by Garry Brown with a retail price of $3.99. It will be available for order by retailers in May 13th edition of Previews Plus.
