| LOS ANGELES 09/18/2025 – Today Skybound and Image Comics shared a glimpse at interior pages and the cover of Good as Dead #2, from Eisner Award-winning comics icons David & Maria Lapham (Stray Bullets) and co-creators Chris Black (creator and showrunner, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters) and David Alpert. Set in the shadows of a seemingly quiet small town, Good as Dead is a simmering thriller packed with crime, justice, death, and long-buried secrets. The second issue of this haunting tale will debut in comic book shops on October 15, 2025. The Emissary Bridge has always connected the citizens of Port Linden to hope and opportunity. But when one man shockingly sets himself on fire, the bridge now brings something else to the town–CERTAIN DEATH. In issue #2, Port Linden is on fire, and Sheriff Calhoun is running out of time to find out who did it. But the only way to catch a criminal is to turn to the most dangerous person he knows – his sister… Eash issue of Good as Dead will be double-sized and written by David and Maria Lapham, with art and letters by David Lapham, and colors by Dee Cunniffe (Redneck). Good as Dead #2 (Lunar Code: 0825IM0372| SRP: $7.99) will be available at comic book shops and digital platforms including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play on Wednesday, October 15, 2025. |
