David & Maria Lapham are finest generally known as the creators of the acclaimed crime comedian Stray Bullets. Now the workforce is bringing a brand new form of crime collection to BOOM! Studios with Underheist. Launching in December, the collection follows a down-on-his-luck legal who embarks on one final heist – one which is probably not precisely what it appears.
Here’s how BOOM! describes Underheist:
The street to hell is paved with good intentions.
After a dropping combat to playing dependancy, David hits all-time low and decimates his private life within the course of. He’d do something for one final likelihood to get on the straight and slim and set issues proper.
He may be in luck, when you can name it that. Through the grapevine David learns of a heist–one involving a tunnel system that nobody is aware of higher than the previous NYC subway veteran. One final job and he’s house free. All he must do is make it out alive.
Along with a principal cowl by David Lapham, Underheist #1 will sport variant covers by Dave Johnson and Goran Sudzuka.
In an announcement asserting the collection, David Lapham described how Underheist compares to he and Maria’s earlier work on Stray Bullets:
“If you know our work then you know that we traditionally come at the crime genre from a very non-traditional angle with very non-traditional noir protagonists. I often call them “domestic noirs”. But with Underheist, we had this concept for a extra easy story, centered round perhaps probably the most conventional crime trope—the heist. Of course, we will’t do something easy for greater than 5 minute, and really rapidly all these twisted, nightmarish concepts began to flood in…”
BOOM! Acquisitions Editor Jon Moisan additionally praised the Laphams for his or her work on the collection:
“A supernatural heist story is a compelling premise. One told by David and Maria Lapham is a no-brainer. Do yourself a favor and preorder a copy for you and everyone you know. No one is going to want to miss out on Underheist. It’s a hell of a good time.”
