In his tenth creator-owned series, Kill All Immortals, writer Zack Kaplan is going all-out on a bloody, supernatural action series with plenty of cinematic elements. Today, The Beat can reveal an extended preview of issue #1, which hits comic shops on July 10.
Featuring a cover by Oliver Barrett, interior art by Fico Ossio, color by Thiago Rocha, letters by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, and design by Tom Muller, Kill All Immortals #1 introduces readers to the immortal Viking explorer Erik the Red and his four adult children, who gained billionaire status in the modern era through their banking empire. Erik’s only daughter, Frey Asvald, wants freedom from her family—but to get it, she has to reveal their supernatural age and fight her combat-ready siblings.
Take an extended first look at Kill All Immortals #1 below.
“Kill All Immortals is my tenth creator-owned series to date and I am so freaking thrilled to return to Dark Horse Comics, a publisher that is a pinnacle for supernatural action comics, from Hellboy to Black Hammer,” said Kaplan. “And I’m stoked to be joined in combat by this team of immortal and cutthroat comic warriors, Fico Ossio, Thiago Rocha, Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, Oliver Barrett, Tom Muller, and the entire Dark Horse family, all ready to bring this series to life.
“It’s action-packed, character-driven family drama combined with a supernatural/sci-fi adventure that draws from Viking lore and personas. But we’re taking our immortal Vikings and twisting them, bringing them into the luxurious, modern world of globalist billionaires and generational wealth,” he continued. “In our own world, we’ve come to accept that we live in a time where a very few secret and affluent individuals control and own almost everything, an immortal institution of dominance propelled by violence. What is required to change this never-ending cycle? We’re about to find out because now, one of their own is turning the tables.
“Frey Asvald is fearless, heartfelt and leaps off the page—if you like action heroines like Erika Slaughter (Something Is Killing the Children), you will love Frey Asvald! Fico and Jordie absolutely kill it on these pages, and we can’t wait for you all to join us in the world of Kill All Immortals!”
Kill All Immortals #1 will hit shelves at your local comic shop on July 10 for $3.99. Pre-orders are available now. If you love it, you can also pre-order the trade paperback collection starting on July 2 from wherever you get your books.
