Writer Chris Ryall (Yes, THAT Chris Ryall), and artist Sam Kieth have teamed for The Hollows, a one-shot set in a dystopian world, scheduled to arrive in July.
In this specially priced, extra-length comic, readers are transported to a near-future Japan, where spectral, once-human husks prey on the unfortunates who couldn’t find salvation in the skyscraper-like trees that now dominate the decimated landscape. A discredited scientist works furiously to find a cure, until a one-eyed orphan girl and her pet, uh, Urp, force him to rethink everything he knows…
“Working with Sam Kieth is always an invigorating, inspiring time,” said Ryall in a press release from Image Comics. “The Hollows was a true blending of our ideas, worlds, and styles into something wholly unique and engaging for me as his co-creator. And I hope people who read it feel the same way.”
The Hollows arrives on July 27, 2022.
