By Staff Reports

Image Comics has announced Dead Eyes, a book by artist John McCrea (Mythic, Hitman) and writer Gerry Duggan (Analog, Deadpool). The duo team up to bring readers action, comedy, and drama in the forthcoming series, a series that may seem familiar to readers of a certain hit series

“We’re very happy to introduce you to the violent, funny, and sad world without justice in Dead Eyes,” said Duggan in a press release sent by Image. “A former stick-up man must return to his life of crime when the pressures of living in a Kleptocracy push him to the breaking point. This is McCrea & Spicer’s very best work and we’re thrilled to punch Dead Eyes into your face beginning this October.”

Set in the 1990s, “Dead Eyes” was a prolific stick-up man and hoodlum in Boston until he took down one last big score and disappeared. Nobody ever discovered the truth. He retired to be with the love of his life, but now he’s back in the mask to save her. No one—not his wife, the mafia, or the cops—is happy that he’s out of retirement.

Dead Eyes hits comic shops on Wednesday, October 2.
