PORTLAND, Ore. 02/18/2026 — Longtime, critically-acclaimed comic book and video game writer William Harms (two-time BAFTA nominated Mafia III, International Horror Guild Award finalist Impaler), fan-favorite artist JP Mavinga, and colorist Lee Loughridge (Standstill) have hit big with the premier of White Sky. Copies of this white-hot launch issue have sold out completely at the distributor level instantly, day-of-release and Image Comics has fast-tracked the debut for a reprint to keep up with escalating demand.
Readers are advised to hit their local comic shop post haste to snag a copy of the first printing before they disappear from shelves.
“Words can’t express how excited and grateful I am that White Sky has resonated with readers and sold out,” said Harms. “Thanks to everyone who ordered it!”
Mavinga added: “My thanks to all the fans who have already shown this project so much support, thank you to the retailers and distribution partners. Thanks, Eric and the team at Image. Thanks Bill for making this happen and a special thanks to my family for tolerating my ridiculously long hours, especially a tiny little youngster that makes her own rather amazing books. Thank you.”
In White Sky, five years ago, the sky went white and the world ended. Now Violet and her father, David, are driven from hiding and forced to cross what’s left of America toward the shattered ruins of San Francisco, chasing a rumor of refuge. But in a land haunted by the dead, nowhere is safe for the living.
An epic, apocalyptic survival story perfect for fans of The Last of Us, The Walking Dead, and 28 Days Later.
