After an overwhelming response to their debut issue, Opus Comics has announced they’re going back to press for Frank Frazetta’s Death Dealer #1. The issue will feature a rarely seen Death Dealer illustration by the man himself. The initial first printing received almost 50,000 copies.

The launch title for Opus Comics enjoyed strong initial orders and a variety of retailer exclusive covers, but it still wasn’t enough to meet the demand for this new series and the publisher is keen to ensure everyone can get a copy.

Death Dealer #1 also was the launch pad for a wider Frazetta-verse which will unfold in upcoming Opus Comics’ issues, and across Incendium’s wider product lines including its FIGBIZ action figures.

Written by Mitch Iverson and rendered by artist Stefano Martino, with colorist Luis Antonio Delgado and letterer Jacob Bascle, the first issue embarks on an epic adventure through the worlds of Frazetta, introducing readers to extraordinary characters and places envisioned by the “Godfather of fantasy art.”

Frank Frazetta’s Death Dealer #1 second print is being rushed through production to arrive in stores alongside Bill & Ted: Roll The Dice #1 on June 8 (one week after Death Dealer #2). Final orders for both titles will need to be placed by May 23.
