Image announces new thriller series Crowded

May 28, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Image Comics have announced that Eisner-nominated writer Christopher Sebela (Harley Quinn), Ro Stein & Ted Brandt (Captain Marvel), Triona Farrell (Runaways), and Cardinal Rae (Bingo Love) are teaming up for the new thriller series Crowded, which is set to launch in August.

Ten minutes in the future, the world runs on an economy of job shares and apps, including Reapr: a crowdfunding platform to fund assassinations. Charlie Ellison leads a quiet, normal life until she’s suddenly targeted by a million-dollar Reapr campaign. Hunted by all of Los Angeles, Charlie hires Vita, the lowest-rated bodyguard on the Dfend app. As the campaign picks up speed, they’ll have to figure out who wants Charlie dead before the campaign’s 30 days—or their lives—are over.

“From the moment Chris first explained the premise I just KNEW we had to do this book. Reading the script was like falling down the stairs… but in a fun way!” said Stein.

Sebela added: “I’ve been wanting to do this book for a couple years now, but it took me this long to figure out a pair of characters I could fall in love with and follow through our messed up vision of the future. As dark and gloomy as it started out, Ro, Ted & Triona have turned it into a madcap adventure buddy comedy at the same time. Crowded is bloody, funny, cynical and hopeful and I can’t wait for people to get a look at it.”

“Working on Crowded is the most fun I’ve had whilst awake,” said Brandt. “First page of the first script I knew I was in love with this book, and it’s only gotten stronger as the team has come together. It’s a wild thrill and I’m so excited to share it.”

Crowded #1 will go on sale on Wednesday, August 15th.
