Posted on by Leave a comment

Following Juan Díaz Canales and Juanjo Guarnido’s Eisner- and Harvey Award-winning Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part One, published in English in 2022, the story now continues in the eagerly anticipated Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part Two. The explosive tale, written by Canales, illustrated by Guarnido, translated for English-language readers by Diana Schutz and Brandon Kander, and newly lettered by Tom Orzechowski and Lois Athena Buhalis, will arrive in a handsome hardcover edition from Dark Horse Books in November 2024.

The award-winning story begun in Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part One comes to a breathtaking conclusion as private investigator John Blacksad finds himself in a race against time to save his best friend from the electric chair! Weekly’s been framed by Lewis Solomon, the power behind New York’s construction boom, but the king of the hill has built his empire on a mound of corpses—with help from a hired hit man now out for his own revenge! Blacksad must take down the killer before the body count climbs even higher. But with Weekly in stir and cops dogging his every move, the feline detective is not only minus an ally, but dangerously distracted by the sudden reappearance of his former fiancée Alma, whose own secrets threaten to derail our hero’s search for the truth.   

Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part Two HC (8.375” x 10.875”; 64 pages) arrives in bookstores on November 5, 2024, and in comic shops on November 6, 2024. It is now available to preorder at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and your local comic shop and bookstore for $19.99.

Acclaimed creators Juan Díaz Canales and Juanjo Guarnido present the long-awaited return of hardboiled feline P.I. John Blacksad in a brand-new, two-part storyline. Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part One will be published in English by Dark Horse in July 2022, following its initial publication by Dargaud and Europe Comics in 2021—the French edition of which has been nominated for the Angoulême Grand Prix award. Translated by Diana Schutz and Brandon Kander, and lettered by Tom Orzechowski and Lois Athena Buhalis, Dark Horse is proud to present this noir masterpiece to North American audiences—the first new Blacksad volume in seven years.

In Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part One, Detective Blacksad deals with the mob, the unions, and mid-century “master builder” Lewis Solomon, who plans to pave over New York City’s green spaces, come hell or high water. While Blacksad must navigate from the lofty world of 1950s theater all the way to the city’s seedy depths, Solomon looms above it all in pursuit of his own dreams—but is the cost too high? Meanwhile, Weekly finds himself in the hot seat just as an old flame comes back to burn his pal Blacksad!

Blacksad: They All Fall Down • Part One will be published in hardcover at a retail price of $19.99. The book arrives in comic shops on July 6, 2022, followed by bookstores on July 19, 2022. It is now available to pre-order through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and your local comic shop.
