Scout Comics has landed writer Phillip Kennedy Johnson‘s next comic series Smoketown. Kennedy has previously released Last Sons of America and Warlords of Appalachia with BOOM! Studios as well as the webcomic series U-Boat Bremen.

Smoketown revolves around an American soldier in the days leading up to his murder. Every issue reveals a new facet of that soldier’s life as he unravels, exposing another criminal or desperate element of his supposedly quiet Pennsylvania town. Each chapter stands alone, but ties into the others to tell a more complete picture of the soldier and his community.

Scott Van Domelen will be providing pencils and inks and Dustin Mollick is the colorist and letterer.

Smoketown comes to shelves bi-monthly beginning February 2017.
