The multiple Eisner Award winning Bitter Root series—by David F. Walker, Chuck Brown, and Sanford Greene—has sparked fan imagination and kicked off an immediate sell-out of Bitter Root: The Next Movement #1 at the distributor level. The highly buzzed about new issue is being rushed back to print by Image Comics in order to keep up with demand.

This explosive new story arc brings the Civil Rights Movement to life for readers when a group of activists go missing during the turbulent times of the 1960s. A new generation of the Sangerye family must face a menace far worse than anything their ancestors ever encountered. The monstrous jinoo—creatures born out of hate and racism—have evolved into a threat that few people are willing to acknowledge, and even fewer know how to fight.

Bitter Root: The Next Movement #1, second printing (Lunar Code 0325IM844) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, March 26.
