Top Cow let us know that Pilot Season: Demonic #1 has sold out at the distributor level and is heading back to press.
â€It’s really exciting to see the reactions of fans, reviewers, and retailers for the new Pilot Season concepts,†commented Top Cow Publisher Filip Sablik. “We really appreciate the retailer support for another immediate sellout.â€
From the creative minds of Image Comics partners Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead, Invincible) and Top Cow founder Marc Silvestri (X-Men/Dark Avengers: Utopia, The Darkness), Pilot Season: Demonic #1 is 32 paged-look into the story of Scott Graves and his inner demon. Unfortunately for Scott, his demon manifests itself in his real life. Written by Kirkman and featuring art from Top Cow alumni Joe Benitez (Soulfire, The Darkness), Scott’s demon is only satiated when Scott kills. In a conflicted Faustian bargain, Scott will continue to kill as long as the demon promises not to make him kill his wife and daughter. Stalking the night as Demonic, a vigilante known for savagely slaughtering the wicked, Scott must asks himself how long can he continue living this way and if the demon is in fact real.
Unlike other publishers who are quick to send the issue back to the printer, Top Cow plans to release the comic through partnered digital content producers in the near future.
