BOOM! Studios has revealed a new look at Slow Burn #1, the first issue of the brand new series from acclaimed noir crime writer Ollie Masters (Snow Blind), rising star artist Pierluigi Minotti (Lost Falls),colorist Alessandro Santoro, and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, a tale about dirty deeds in a town on fire, available October 2023.
Hell is a place on Earth.
Fleeing from a botched robbery in New York City, a junkie, her dying partner, and a dementia-ridden old man pull into a mining ghost town in central Pennsylvania. Obscured by the caustic vapors spewed forth from a still burning coal-seam fire from the 1960s, Trier seems like the perfect place for the trio to lay low, maybe score a fix, and potentially take a hostage. But this ghost town might prove more lively than any of them think.
The debut issue features a main cover by Matt Taylor (Deep State) with variants by acclaimed artists Paul Azaceta (Outcast), Tyler Jenkins (Apache Delivery Service),and Cliff Chiang (Paper Girls). Here’s your first look at the cover gallery:
