BOOM! Studios is excited about the March debut of The Returning, a four-issue limited series that gives near-death experiences a horrifying new twist. Writer Jason Starr and artist Andrea Mutti create a world that’s part Carrie, part Hellblazer, part Crossed, and steeped in a mystery that will keep readers guessing until the end. It’s a a gripping but deeply human drama set in an uncertain world.

It’s the near future, and some people who have had Near-Death Experiences have come back “changed.” They exhibit extreme behavioral changes, becoming increasingly paranoid and violent, and no one knows why. People who have had NDE’s fall immediately under suspicion, and in some cases, are murdered by justice-seeking vigilantes. It is in this world where Beth, a quiet high school student with a bright future, will learn just how quickly friends and family will turn on her when she has the bad luck of surviving the worst night of her life…

The Returning #1 arrives in comic shops on March 12th with a cover price of $3.99 under Diamond order code JAN140992.
