Last night, Smith tweeted the above image, noting that it was the last page of art for this 190 page graphic novel and that Stokoe’s work had finally wrapped up, with all that is left to do being the coloring and lettering (and general graphic novel assembly). Can we get a resounding “HELL YEAH!”?
When we spoke to Smith earlier this year, he described the book to us as “a horror book about a baseball team that stumbles into a town filled with flesh hungry monsters. The team have to use all of their baseball skills and tricks to survive the night.” If that doesn’t get you amped up for what is assumedly going to be one of our top graphic novels of the year, we’re not quite sure what will.
We’ll update you more on all information about the book as we get it, but look for a release date for sometime later this year from Image Comics.
