Legendary comic book artist Bernie Wrightson (Swamp Thing, Frankenstein) is returning to full penciling and inking duties on a comic book for the first time is over two decades. Wrightson has joined writer Steve Niles (30 Days of Night) to create a noir horror miniseries entitled Dead, She Said.
IDW Publishing also unveiled a stunning trailer produced by Hazmat Studios for the series, which debuts in comic shops on May 21.
Dead She Said tells the story of Detective Coogan, who wakes up on the wrong side of the bullet, and finds that he’s… dead. And now he has to find out who killed him, how he’s still alive, and just how to put the pieces (pieces which include giant ants) together to solve his own murder. The first issue of this new miniseries mixes horror and noir into a tightly wound nightmare of twists and turns.
”It’s great to work with two true masters of their craft on a project like this,” said Chris Ryall, IDW’s Publisher/Editor-in-Chief. “Bernie’s work has been inspirational for decades to horror fans like Niles and me, and a new-school horror writer like Niles blends perfectly with Bernie’s amazing linework.”
Dead, She Said #1, a 32-page, $3.99 comic book, will be in stores on May 21, 2008.
