Comic News: 28 DAYS LATER #1 RELEASE DATE: AUGUST 26th



"The End of the World Is Extremely Nigh!"

First Issue of New Ongoing Series Features Covers by Tim Bradstreet, Sean Phillips & Brett Weldele


Finally, the wait for the End of the World is over as BOOM! Studios' 28 DAYS LATER #1 will hit stands Wednesday, August 26th.

The first arc will be firmly based in 28 DAYS LATER continuity with the story focusing on Selena. Bridging the gap between 28 DAYS LATER and 28 WEEKS LATER, the series will focus on the question: what happened to Selena after 28 DAYS LATER?

The film franchise has grossed over $145 million globally and been named by the cable channel Bravo as having one of "The 100 Scariest Movie Moments." Empire Magazine honored it as one of the "500 Greatest Movies of All Time." The New York Times called it "Bracingly smart."

28 DAYS LATER #1 is an ongoing series written by Michael Alan Nelson (FALL OF CTHULHU, HEXED) and drawn by red hot newcomer Declan Shalvey. The first issue features three covers by Tim Bradstreet, Sean Phillips and Brett Weldele in a 50/25/25 split with a Cover D Incentive by DNA Films shipping 1 for every 25.

28 DAYS LATER #1 is priced at $3.99, 24 pgs and carries a Diamond Code of MAY090724.
