Image/Skybound Entertainment have announced this week the upcoming launch of ULTRAMEGA, a brand new comic series that’s headed our way with one hell of a premise.
In the world of ULTRAMEGA, a cosmic plague has spread and transformed everyday people into violent, monstrous kaiju.
Only the Ultramega—three individuals imbued with incredible powers—hold the line against this madness. Their battles level cities and leave untold horror in their wake. Now, the final reckoning approaches for the Ultramega… but is this a war they can even win?
“ULTRAMEGA’s debut issue will sink ships with its extra-length story—busting at the seams with a whopping 68-pages of colossal goodness,” the official press release teases.
The series comes from James Harren (RUMBLE, BPRD) and features the talents of multiple Eisner award winning colorist Dave Stewart.
“I hope readers appreciate an honest stab at making visceral, surprising, and bizarre comics,” said Harren. “It’s a celebration of the kinds of books I grew up reading—comics that move and curse and bleed. Skybound has given me the unbelievable privilege to play and experiment—and with any luck, deliver a book that doesn’t look like anything else. And Dave Stewart’s there to hit home runs and make the world a better place with his color art.”
ULTRAMEGA #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, March 17.
