‘Dead Irons’ Issue #4 in Stores Tomorrow
Arriving in comic shops tomorrow from Dynamite Entertainment is Dead Irons Issue #4, written by James Kuhoric, with art by Jason Shawn Alexander and covers by Jae Lee and Alexander.
The cursed siblings are drawn to the cult compound of Devin Irons and the reborn abomination wearing the skin of their mother. An army of 99 innocent souls under the demonic influence of their father stand in the way of this long coming family reunion. As the blood spills into the streets, the final dark ritual is enacted and an otherworldly force begins to seep into our reality. When Silas uncovers the carnage unleashed by his siblings he must walk in their steps to end the curse of the family line. But even his righteous anger pales in comparison to the power that has been unleashed in the wake of the slaughter. It’s the final supernatural showdown as the Irons collide and nothing can stand between the raw hatred of a manipulative father and years of unimaginable horror endured by an abused son. Six guns and the supernatural collide in the explosive conclusion.
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.”
