SDCC 2023: DSTLRY announce Gone by Jock launching this October

DSTLRY has revealed Gone, its first series launching this October. From the mind of DSTLRY Founding Creator Jock, Gone is the Eisner Award-winning creator’s first creator-owned project as both writer and artist.

Spinning out of his 8-page story “The Stowaway” from DSTLRY’s debut release The Devil’s Cut (on-sale August 30th), Gone is an action-packed sci-fi adventure featuring oversized, 48-page perfect bound issues beautifully written, drawn, and colored by Jock.

On an impoverished and distant planet where menial workers scratch out a living resupplying starships, the best place to be is GONE…and that’s exactly where 13-year-old Abi wants to be. Along with her street-tough friends, Abi stows away on a colossal luxury space-liner, hoping for a better life. Unbeknownst to her, Abi’s “friends” are not who they seem, and she suddenly finds herself branded a saboteur as she desperately struggles to evade the ship’s deadly crew to stay alive! As the young heroine confronts betrayal, discovers her true allies, and fights against all odds, Abi will soon realize that nothing is farther away than…home.

In celebration of the reveal of DSTLRY’s first series, the cover of this month’s PREVIEWS catalog from Diamond Comic Distributors will host a full design takeover by Jock, featuring a new spin on the iconic PREVIEWS logo design set against the backdrop of the Gone #1 main cover.

Gone #1 features two open-order covers by Jock, with 1:10, 1:25, and 1:50 incentive variant covers to be revealed at a later date.
