* IDW Publishing has announced a May 18 launch form Doomsday.1, a four-issue mini-series from John Byrne that tells the tale of seven adventurous astronauts, who watch in horror, aloft in the International Space Station, as most of Earth is annihilated by a titanic solar flare.

"I've been thinking for some time that I would like to revisit a post-apocalypse kind of scenario, such as was seen in my very first 'dramatic' work in comics, but this time without the more obvious fantasy elements of that original series -- mermaids, alien robots, frozen mammoths, etc.," Byrne said. "When bits and pieces of this new series first started to percolate around in my head, I knew almost at once the shape that 'revisi'' would take; something in the 'All-New, All-Different' 'vein. And the first time I doodled some images of my 'crew,' I knew I was there!"

Here's how the mini-series is described:

"When all communication is lost and their home appears destroyed, what are the intrepid astronauts to do? Prepare to cling to a new life in zero gravity, waiting for the space stations supplies to dwindle to nothing? That doesn't sound very adventurous, now does it? No, the true thrills of Doomsday.1 come when the seven stranded heroes descend back to their decimated home world to confront the dangers left behind by the universe's cruel ravaging!"

"As much as I enjoyed seeing John work on the various licensed titles we've done, it's a continued blast to work with him in developing new concept after new concept this year,"said Chris Ryall, IDW's chief creative officer/editor-in-chief. "If Earth has to be destroyed in a flaming conflagration, there's no one I'd rather see bring that carnage and its aftermath to life than JB."

* BOOM! Studios has announced a second printing for Deathmatch #2, which will feature a new cover by Tom Derenick.

The publisher did not reveal the issue's initial print run.
