Dark Horse Comics has announced a new four-part series titled Drive Like Hell. The series comes by way of Rich Douek and Alex Cormack (Sea of Sorrows, Breath of Shadows, Road of Bones) along with letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. Launching October 25th, the series is a fast-paced action-adventure hellscape horror.
“When I started writing Drive Like Hell, I had one rule,” says author Rich Douek. “If I had an idea that seemed too crazy, too extreme, or too outrageous, I had to go ahead and do it. The result is a story that I hope is as fun to read as it was to write.”
So what’s Drive Like Hell about?
Bobby Ray and Dahlia planned the perfect heist, and even stole the perfect getaway car. The big problem? That car happens to belong to the devil himself, and he wants it back. When the job goes wrong, and Dahlia ends up with a bullet in her head, Bobby Ray finds himself plunged into a supernatural road war with demonic cops, satanic biker gangs, and a whole host of madcap characters, all of whom are after the prize in the car’s trunk. If he wants to stay one step ahead of the chaos, he’s gonna have to Drive Like Hell.
