BOOM! Studios has revealed a new incentive cover for the upcoming comic series set to debut on February 24, 2021. The Lee Bermejo cover will be available to comic book shops as a 1-25 incentive. Going further, an undressed edition of the cover can be nabbed as a 1-in-100 incentive.
BRSRKR made waves last year when it positively crushed in its Kickstarter campaign and today it’s getting a bit prettier with a new Lee Bermejo incentive variant cover. The campaign came away with $1,447,212 and 14,571 backers.
Check out the cover below.
The 12-issue series is by Keanu Reeves and Matt Kindt with art by Ron Garney, colors by Bill Crabtree, and letters by Clem Robins.
So what’s it about?
The man known only as B. is half-mortal and half-god, cursed and compelled to violence…even at the sacrifice of his sanity. But after wandering the world for centuries, B. may have finally found a refuge – working for the U.S. government to fight the battles too violent and too dangerous for anyone else. In exchange, B. will be granted the one thing he desires – the truth about his endless blood-soaked existence…and how to end it.
BRZRKR #1 is set to arrive in comic book shops on February 24, 2021.
