BOOM! Studios clearly has revealed something fresh and innovative with  WE ONLY FIND THEM WHEN THEY’RE DEAD #1, a new sci-fi epic tale from celebrated writer Al Ewing (Immortal Hulk), Simone Di Meo (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) with color assistance by Mariasara Miotti and letters by AndWorld Design. It’s all about one man’s unrelenting quest throughout space to discover the truth—no matter where it takes him, even if it’s in the dead parts of the galaxy.

Captain Malik and the crew of spaceship Vihaan II work to collect resources from the dead giant corpses of alien gods found on the edge of known human space. The story is about the spaceship race to always be the first to salvage the Gods’ meat, natural resources, and metals that preserves the human race. However, Malik sees an opportunity to finally break free from this twisted system by being the first to possibly find a living, breathing god.

WOFTWTD (that’s a mouthful) is a new space adventure and it’s more than welcomed in the Sci-fi genre. Highly inspired by the manga side of comics, the artwork in this book is mesmerizing. “I had been waiting for years to work on my own sci-fi series and Al wrote a story so intense that I couldn’t have asked for anything better,” Di Meo said. “Sci-fi, passion, mystery, and giant gods make these pages an absolute blast to draw.”

WE ONLY FIND THEM WHEN THEY’RE DEAD #1 features main cover art by series artist Simone Di Meo, but many artists share the spotlight with variant covers by Toni Infante (Mega Man: Fully Charged), Christian Ward (Invisible Kingdom), Matías Bergara (Coda), and the fabulous Jenny Frison (Something is Killing the Children). Here are a few of the variant covers for the #1 issue.

Paper printed copies of WE ONLY FIND THEM WHEN THEY’RE DEAD #1 are available since September 2, 2020, usually at your local comic book shops or on Amazon.com right here.

For nearly three decades, voiceover actor Kevin Conroy has been the voice of (animated) Batman. He has voiced almost every iteration of Batman in cartoons, animated movies or video games. Conroy began his career as a theater actor, attending Julliard, a prestigious acting school in New York City. He studied alongside heavyweights Robin Williams, Kelsey Grammer and more. Conroy would go on to perform on Broadway and off-Broadway when his agent called him about auditioning for the role of Batman in a new animated show. During the audition Kevin was able to use his theater background to manifest one of the most memorable voices in cartoon history.
