Dark Horse Comics has announced a new series from Matt Kindt and Dan McDaid under the Flux House label called If You Find This, I’m Already Dead. The three-issue series arrives in comic shops on February 14, 2024.
On the series, Kindt said, “If Moebius, Richard Corben, and Jack Kirby had a baby…well…they actually did. And it’s us.” And on the format,“We wanted to capture the great tradition of such great sci-fi magazines as Heavy Metal, Epic Magazine, and 1984 with a big scuzzy cosmic sci-fi story and format.”
So what’s If You Find This, I’m Already Dead about?
Robin is a big city reporter, embedded with U.S. Marines heading to the hostile pocket universe called Terminus. Ten minutes in, the entire marine squad is wiped out and she has to survive (and report) on her own. Terminus is full of cosmic wonders–and sci-fi “gods” that are in the middle of a political power struggle. The language is alien, and the politics are deadly. Can she survive long enough to figure out what’s going on and get home to tell the story?
