Army Of Darkness Sequel Comic Gets Gore-Tacular Finale!
Almost exactly a year ago, one of the biggest stories in Army of Darkness lore was announced. Visionary comics creator Tony Fleecs (Stray Dogs, Local Man) has been crafting for a year the long-awaited direct sequel to creator Sam Raimi’s original vision for the ending of the final film starring Ash. Now it’s all coming up on its finale, and it had to be bigger, better, and gorier than ever!
Army of Darkness Forever #13 ups the ante with 40 action-packed pages of the trademark horror-comedy mayhem that fans have loved for over three decades. Originally the series was slated to be shorter, then was officially announced as extended to 12 issues thanks to the support of fans. But the full scope of the story could not be contained within those bounds, or even a regular sized extra issue. Hence the oversized dose of all-out carnage in this lucky thirteenth chapter!
Writer Tony Fleecs is joined by a trio of incredible artists to chronicle the absolute chaos and Deadite slaughter within the special release’s splatter-ific pages. Those three contributing their unhinged artwork include Eamon Winkle, Kewber Baal, and Pop Mahn.
They’re joined by crazed covers by series stalwarts Arthur Suydam, Bjorn Barends, Chris Burnham, and Tony Fleecs himself. Each cover underlines the bloody finale and is a can’t miss for every horror fiend’s collection.
The series has been juggling three distinct timelines, the S-Mart aisles of 1993, the middle ages mayhem of Castle Kandar, and the mysterious neon-soaked vistas of 2093 overrun with the Army of Darkness. With the latter picking up immediately after the alternate, but originally intended shock ending of the film. They all converge and come to a close in this issue, which very well could be the true finale for the story of Ashley Williams! The whole creative team is putting the “grand” in grand-guignol, giving this iconic character the heroic sendoff he deserves!
ARMY OF DARKNESS FOREVER #13 is solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ August 2024 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market and slated for release in October 2024. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the issue with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customers to purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!
