The white-hot new Image/Skybound series Redneck by Donny Cates and Lisandro Estherren is being rushed back to print in order to keep up with overwhelming customer demand.
The Bowmans are vampires who have quietly run the local barbecue joint in their small town for years, living off cows’ blood. Their peaceful coexistence ends as generations of hate, fear, and bad blood bubble to the surface—making it impossible to separate man from monster.
Redneck serves up a tale of a different kind of family just trying to get by, deep in the heart of Texas.
Redneck #1, 2nd printing (Diamond Code MAR178087), Redneck #2 (Diamond Code MAR170771) will be available on Wednesday, May 24th. The final order cutoff deadline for comics retailers is Monday, May 1st.
