Image Comics has announced that a second volume of the comic book series Screamland will debut in June. The book is written by former Kansas City resident Harold Sipe and Christopher Sebela. It features artwork by local creators Lee Leslie, Hector Casanova, and Buster Moody.
The comic book can be pre-ordered at comics shops now. It is the first issue of an on-going series, and will sell for $2.99.
Screamland is set in a world where movie monsters are real and are mostly unemployed because of CGI special effects. In the initial story of the new series, “Death of the Party,” two monsters cancel their convention autograph sessions to stop the release of a monster porn movie that could destroy any chance for feature creatures to get legitimate work again.
Hector Casanova, who drew the original mini-series run of Screamland, contributes covers to this new series. The regular interior artist is now Lee Leslie, who also creates the Rigby the Barbarian webcomic. Buster Moody provides coloring for the series.
