First Look: Buckle Up and Brace for Impact in CRUEL UNIVERSE #3 from Oni Press and EC Comics – On Sale October 2nd!

Just in time for Halloween, Oni Press is calling the latest electric EC comic forth from the beyond! On October 2nd, the sinister and successful return of the iconic EC Comics imprint continues in CRUEL UNIVERSE #3 – armed with one of our most craven casts of creators and time-distorted tales yet!

Ahead of the arrival of our third twisted tome of sci-fi stunners, Oni Press and EC Comics are proud to present a first look inside the all-new story “Automated” from rising star J. Holtham (The Horizon Experiment) and unstoppable artist Kano (Gotham Central) as a billionaire inventor grapples with the true prices of technological innovation at any cost…

Plus: The world’s most existentially devastating comic magazine plumbs new depths in CRUEL UNIVERSE #3 as the otherworldly talents of Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun) and David Rubín (Sherlock Frankenstein), Ben H. Winters (The Last Policeman) and Carson Thorn (XINO) and Zac Thompson (Cemetery Kids Don’t Die) and Dan McDaid (If You Find This…) begin a manned expedition to the extremes of human existence and imagine the terrifying possibilities of what to expect when the best of intentions meet the cold, hard reality of our worst instincts. The world and everything you hold dear within it may be doomed to the cold touch of entropy . . . BUT AT LEAST YOU CAN KEEP THIS COMIC AS A SOUVENIR!

Featuring covers by Eisner Award winner Greg Smallwood (The Human Target), Eisner Award winner Dave Johnson (Superman: Red Son), Ringo Award nominee Jay Stephens (Dwellings) and Eisner Award nominee Rian Hughes (The Multiversity), give yourself over to science fiction that stings in CRUEL UNIVERSE #3 – on sale October 2nd!
