Black Crown continues to establish itself as one of the premiere imprints in all of comics. Under the director of Shelly Bond, the IDW boutique has produced some truly exception stuff from some of the most unique voices in comics. “Lodger” continues that trend, bringing the “Stray Bullets” team of David and Maria Lapham to this new miniseries, done in David’s iconic black and white style. We are thrilled to share an exclusive first look at the debut issue, which hits stands Wednesday, October 24th.

A handsome drifter murders his way through the midwest while hiding in plain sight as a travel blogger, leaving families in shreds and body bags in his wake. Ricky Toledo was fifteen when she fell hard for “Dante”—until he killed her mother and got her father sent to prison for it. It’s three years later, and Ricky will stop at nothing to get revenge. Lodger is a dark, grimy, psychological thriller—a game of cat and mouse between a broken young woman and a serial killer—and like all the best crime noir… a twisted love story.
