Catwoman Uncovered #1

Purr Evil by Mirka Andolfo and Laura Braga launches in July!

Harvey Award winning superstar Mirka Andolfo and fan-favorite illustrator Laura Braga team up for the first time to bring Purr Evil to life! Purr Evil will launch from Image Comics this July in the United States, and will be released simultaneously in Italy (Star Comics), France and Belgium (Dupuis), and Spain, Argentina, and Chile (Moztros).

Purr Evil is The Last of Us meets Hit-Girl and Léon: The Professional in a six-issue miniseries with high-adrenaline content, and is a new adventure comic produced by Arancia Studio, the Italian creative atelier which worked on Andolfo’s bestselling Image Comics titles and many successful books.

The story will explore an unusual mother-daughter relationship, seasoned with horror and urban fantasy elements. Can the bond of the two women overcome a life built on blood and lies? What secret is lurking in the Morando family’s apartment? 

Purr Evil tells the story of Rita, a young mother forced by the mistakes of her dark past to become a ruthless, cold-blooded killer, in order to defend her daughter Deb from the endless evil that looms over her. In a world on the brink of doom, the unconditional love between mother and daughter must overcome every barrier and every misunderstanding alongside blood, sweat, tears, and a tremendous lot of malevolent kittens.

Ryan Cady, Andrea Mutti, and Top Cow will Haunt You to the End

Top Cow Productions reunites the Infinite Dark team Ryan Cady and Andrea Mutti to develop a new sci-fi, horror series, Haunt You to the End, which debuts on June 14th, 2023. It features lettering by Frank Cvetkovic.

Within this A Day After Tomorrow and A Haunting of Hill House world that Cady and Mutti created, readers will go on an expedition with a motley crew of characters, from a tech billionaire, a catholic priest, a Sarah Connor-like military contractor turned explorer, uniformed military contractors, and one washed up journalist, to prove that there is life after death. But together, the reader will discover with the characters that there are deeper horrors.

A GHOST STORY FOR THE END OF THE WORLD! In a not-so-far future rife with climate disasters and worldwide instability, an eccentric billionaire and his crew – a disgraced journalist, a radical doctor, a TV demonologist, and a squad of hard-bitten military contractors – set out to prove the existence of life after death. But even if their mission is a success, the truth behind the “most haunted place on earth” may not be the comforting revelation the world is hoping for.

Haunt You to the End #1 features a cover by Andrea Mutti and cover by Maika Sozo.

When a new drug called VANTA hits the streets, word is it’s the hottest thing since Ecstacy. For regular people, it has all the highs and none of the lows of traditional drugs. There is some fine print, however – for empowered Black folks, the drug causes a total and violent loss of control. The Project sends Indigo to investigate, and it soon becomes apparent that this is more than just a new designer distraction for the masses. Indigo together with former Detective Ellen Waters race to find the source of the substance poisoning their people, before it’s too late!  

The superhero universe where only Black people have super powers continues to expand, for the first time with a new creative team building onto the exciting world created by Kwanza Osajyefo, Tim Smith 3, Jamal Igle & Khary Randolph. Collects issues 1-4.

Indigo, Waters, and X have traced the supply of VANTA to a single source – an old nemesis, SAVAGE, who has re-branded himself a businessman and is running the drug from his nightclub. The trio arrive in style and get to work, managing to get to Savage and getting the name of his supplier. That name triggers a reaction in Indigo that is more dangerous that VANTA ever could be, and her partners may not be able to keep her from going past the point of no return…
