COMING SOON: Devilishly Good Fun from John Layman and JOK in 'In Hell We Fight'

 


Multiple Eisner Award-winning writer/letterer John Layman (Chew, Suicide Squad: Kill Arkham Asylum) and Argentinian superstar artist JOK team up for a devilishly fun new series in the upcoming In Hell We Fight, which was first previewed in the Image! Anthology. This all-new, ongoing series is set to launch in June from Image Comics.

“I’m thrilled to be back at Image with a new book,” said Layman. “In Hell We Fight is the most ambitious thing I’ve done in a while, and also the most fun. Nonstop action, adventure, and general weirdness, with loads of heart, and I can say with confidence this will be the best time anyone will have reading about kids condemned to an eternity in hell. Luckily for me, I’ve teamed up with a great artist—Jok—who’s probably the one person on Earth who can capture this unique balance of light and dark, horror and heart. I think this is the perfect vehicle to introduce him to a broader American comic book-reading audience.”

Life in Hell ain’t easy. Demons try to torture you for all eternity. Monsters want to eat you. There’s a stunning lack of reliable indoor plumbing. And it’s almost impossible to get ice cream. At least, until today, when three condemned teens and their annoying tagalong demon frenemy embark on a daring scheme to hijack a demon lord’s delivery truck. What happens next will take them on an epic journey across the underworld, an infernal excursion of non-stop excitement, danger, and adventure.

“It is a great honor and privilege to be able to make my great dream come true since I was a teenager: To be published at Image,” said Jok. “Alongside none other than the great John Layman, a colossal writer capable of conveying charm, humor, warmth, darkness, and surprise at an astonishing pace. In Hell We Fight is an adventure with very human and recognizable characters, faced with an absolutely overwhelming and extraordinary challenges. Come on board, don't miss this amazing journey!”

In Hell We Fight #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, June 7:

  • Cover A by JOK - Diamond Code APR230017
  • Cover B by Ward - Diamond Code APR230018
  • Cover C 1:20 copy incentive by JOK & Bosch - Diamond Code APR230019
