    AWA Studios announces Sins of the Salton Sea

    Press ReleaseBy Press ReleaseMarch 16, 20233 Mins Read

    PRESS RELEASE

    AWA Studios, the independent developer of bold and relevant stories from the world’s most outstanding artists, writers, and artisans, announced today the upcoming release of SINS OF THE SALTON SEA, a five-issue series debuting on June 7, 2023. From the all-star creative team of writer Ed Brisson (OLD MAN LOGAN, BATMAN INCORPORATED, X-FORCE) and artist C.P. Smith (WOLVERINE: BLOOD & SORROW, THE RESISTANCE UNIVERSE: THE ORIGINS, TEN GRAND #7), this new series serves up a high octane crime thriller with a supernatural twist that asks the weighty question: Is the life of one child worth risking the fate of the world?

    SINS OF THE SALTON SEA follows Wyatt, a professional thief living off the grid in the aftermath of a horrible tragedy, who is recruited by his brother to pull off one last job. Their target: an armored car traveling down a desolate stretch of California highway. But when it turns out that the armored car is carrying not gold bars but human cargo, Wyatt is plunged into the middle of a conflict between warring factions of a doomsday cult. The Sons of the Salton Sea claim that it is their solemn duty to save the world by means of human sacrifice. Wyatt must decide if he will protect the boy who has come into his charge or be swayed by the cult’s convincing claims that the end of the world is fast approaching.

    “Exploring the riveting blend of action and horror in SINS OF THE SALTON SEA made it a lot of fun to write and it has been so exciting to see C.P. Smith’s illustrations truly bring the story to life in such a dynamic way,” said series writer Ed Brisson. “I’m thrilled Axel and the AWA team gave me the opportunity to tell this fast-paced and exhilarating adventure, and I hope readers love it as much as we do.”

    “Ed is an extraordinary talent playing to his strengths, and he’s perfectly paired with C.P. Smith, whose neo-noir style brilliantly captures the tension and atmosphere of Ed’s scripts. SINS OF THE SALTON SEA takes a familiar trope – a criminal looking to make one last score – and completely turns it on its head,” said Axel Alonso, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of AWA Studios. “Part conspiracy thriller, part chase movie, part cult-based horror, with plenty of twists and turns to keep readers wondering, Is Wyatt doing the right thing…?”

    SINS OF THE SALTON SEA is created and written by Ed Brisson, illustrated and colored by C.P. Smith, and lettered by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. Issue #1 will be available June 7th, both digitally and in stores wherever comic books are sold.
