IMAGE COMICS' REBEL BLOOD
Image Comics has announced a March 28 launch for Rebel Blood, a four-issue mini-series from artist and concept creator Riley Rossmo and writer Alex Link.
Image describes the series as a "gruesome new 21st century zombie outbreak story that pays tribute to horror comics' post-war heyday of titles such as The Vault of Horror, The Haunt of Fear, and Tales From the Crypt, while presenting a concept to rival the best of The Twilight Zone!"
"I sketch and paint all the time while I'm working on different projects," Rossmo said. "The concept for Rebel Blood is something that just began as some sketches, but quickly took on a life of its own, to mutate. Rebel Blood is what happens when I just run wild with a concept and let it happen."
Here's how Image describes the book:
"Rebel Blood #1 introduces Forest Ranger Chuck Neville, who, after a strange, unexpected silence, receives a final radio message that a plague is sweeping the country. He learns that the disease has turned every living creature into zombies, all at once rendering the entire animal kingdom unpredictable, violent, and willing to tear apart their neighbors with their bare teeth.
"He races home to rescue his family, coming face-to-face with unbelievable horrors along his way and fighting to stay alive. However, when he reaches home, he may find the most horrible part of it all waiting for him..."
A preview of Rebel Blood #1 will be featured in the back of both Haunt #20 (in stores on Dec. 28) and Spawn #215 (in stores on Jan. 11).
