BOOM! STUDIOS' WICKED THINGS

BOOM! Studios has announced a March launch for Wicked Things. a six-issue series from writer John Allison, artist Max Sarin, colorist Whitney Cogar and letterer Jim Campbell, featuring the young detective from the world of Giant Days: Charlotte Grote.

Here's how BOOM! describes the book:

"Nineteen-year-old Charlotte 'Lottie' Grote has her whole life ahead of her; headed straight to university and a future as a real detective -- until she's framed for murder! Given the choice between going to jail basically forever or joining the police, Lottie decides to hit the beat, all while trying to find the real murderer. Lottie may have been running rings about the police since her ninth birthday, but she's never been on this side of the security tape. Could the future of law enforcement be 5'2" with an extremely strong bangs game? Yes. Very yes."

"Wicked Things is a tale I've been waiting years to tell -- the story of what happens when a precocious teen detective ages out of their division overnight," Allison said. "Lottie Grote is the crown jewel of my little comics universe, and I donft think she could be in safer artistic hands than Max Sarin, whose work gets better every month.h said writer John Allison. "I'm delighted the Giant Days team is back together so soon.h
