Unmasking the Mystery: A First Look at ‘Something is Killing the Children #0’

 

By August Tales

Prepare yourselves for a journey into mystery and mayhem. Boom! Studios today gave us a sneak peek at ‘Something is Killing the Children #0’. This explosive series has been sending shocks through the comic world since its debut five years back, bagging an Eisner along the way. The series has caught attention for four magnificent decades, since the arrival of its central character, Erica Slaughter. Now, as another edition beckons, it promises to reveal one of Erica’s past missions. This crucial issue is set to hit comic shops in November 2024.

A Return to the Start

Erica Slaughter’s latest mission before landing in Archer’s Peak is exposed. Moreover, it’s a brutal quest that precedes her entrance there. It winds up with Erica stepping out of the woods to encounter a young girl by a red wagon. Now, James Tynion IV and Werther Dell’Edera are bringing you back, right to the beginning.

Emerging as the first-ever zero issue for any Boom! Studios original series, ‘Something is Killing the Children #0’ boasts principal cover art by series artist and co-creator, Werther Dell’Edera. The variant covers, in addition, are by a string of renowned illustrators. Names include Jenny Frison, Dan Mora, Jeff Dekal, Jae Lee and June Chung, Sean Gordon Murphy, and Chris Bachalo.

The issue will also be adorned with a polybagged intermix cover. This stunning feature derives from the imaginative mind of the legendary Dan Mora, which presents one of three covers. The covers flaunt an intermix ratio percentage of 40/40/20 —making the third one the rarest of the lot.

Yet Another Striking Release

‘Something is Killing the Children’ comes hot off the press from Boom! Studios’ titular imprint. This is home to numerous critically praised original series, like ‘BRZRKR’, ‘Hello Darkness’, ‘Grim’, ‘Stuff of Nightmares’, ‘A Vicious Circle’, and ‘Ghostlore’, to name just a few.
