Image Comics has a new ongoing series on the way titled Blood Tree. This horror crime drama will follow NYPD detectives on the hunt for a sociopath who targets the family members of murderers. Peter J. Tomasi and Maxim Šimić are collaborating to bring fans this harrowing tale.
Image’s official description of Blood Tree reads:
“In Blood Tree, two obsessed NYPD detectives hunt for a vicious butcher called the Angel Killer, a sociopath who preys on the innocent family members of known murderers in order to “purify” the rest of society.”
“I always wanted to take a shot at writing a taut and haunting crime drama in the tradition of Silence of the Lambs meets Seven,” said Tomasi.
Šimić added: “This book will surely grip the reader the same way it gripped me after reading the entire script. It’s dark, action-packed, and, best of all, it’s got great characters.”
Blood Tree #1 will be available at your favorite local comic shop and digitally on Wednesday, February 1st, and feature Cover A art by Christian Alamy & Brad Anderson and Cover B art by Gary Frank & Brad Anderson.
