[Exclusive] Preview the End of the Nightmare With This Sneak Peek at the Final Issue of ‘DCeased’
The nightmare that began in May comes to an end this week with DCeased #6, the conclusion to the popular mini-series that unleashed a virus on the DC Universe and has turned many beloved heroes into monsters. In the final issue, humanity is on the brink of extinction, and only a few remaining members of the Justice League stand between life and annihilation.
“As the remnants of humanity make their last gamble for survival, will there even be a planet left to call home when all is said and done?”
DCeased #6 will be hitting comic book shelves on Wednesday, October 30, and it’s being billed as “a horrifying conclusion to the year’s surprise blockbuster comic.”
You can preview #6 with an exclusive sneak peek look at several pages and covers below. And expect the collected edition of the entire DCeased saga to arrive in November!
IDW Dark and Paramount recently joined forces to launch limited comic book tales set in the worlds of Smile and A Quiet Place, and we’ve learned today that they’ll continue hanging around in those franchise universes with two brand new limited series tales.
Entertainment Weekly has exclusively revealed this afternoon that IDW Dark’s Any Given Smile debuts in September, while A Quiet Place: Rising Tides arrives in November.
First up, from writer Stephanie Williams and artist Pablo Collar, Any Given Smile puts a football-themed twist on Parker Finn’s successful Smile movie franchise.
The five-part limited series is “set in January 1995, during the American Arena League football championship game in St. Augustine, Florida. The rising superstar of the Sharks, backup quarterback Dupree, is feeling the pressure from his teammates, the fans, and also the city’s gambling underworld, to whom he owes a considerable debt. Meanwhile, a sports journalist investigates a string of suicides that may be connected to the big game. At the very least, they are connected to a sinister entity that preys on the minds of its victims.”
From writer Declan Shalvey and artist Luke Sparrow, A Quiet Place: Rising Tides will also be a five-issue limited story. The comic book tale “brings the creatures to the Florida Keys, where a father-daughter duo attempt to survive on water in a houseboat.”
EW further details, “This tense family reunion coincides with the arrival of the vicious creatures that hunt through sound. Grace and her dad find safety on the open ocean, but she’ll have to make landfall sooner or later; the father’s oxygen tank and their supplies are running low, while a hurricane swiftly approaches.”
