BOOM! Studios has revealed a first look at BRZRKR: Poetry of Madness #1 from iconic filmmaker and record-shattering comic creator Keanu Reeves, acclaimed writer and artist Steve Skroce, and Eisner-winning colorist Dave Stewart. The first-ever BRZRKR one-shot special pits the immortal B. against a Lovecraftian nightmare, available this July 26th.

A sea of gore and devastation awaits as B., through a fateful chance encounter, safeguards the advanced and ancient realm of Atlantis as its unstoppable protector. But a deceived king serves as a symbol for the rot inside the kingdom, as the security and peace created through B.’s violence is shallow… The cracks created by a secret cult might spell a monstrous end for the legendary city, one beyond even B.’s ability to save.

BRZRKR: Poetry of Madness #1 features covers by Steve Skroce, Travis Charest, David Aja, and David Mack.
