Superstar artist and rising star writer Lorenzo de Felici (Oblivion Song, Void Rivals, Kroma) will launch an all-new ongoing series in, Red Roots. This pulse-pounding new adventure will kick off in April from Image Comics.
De Felici rose to prominence with the launch of Oblivion Song—his co-creation with Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead)—and his subsequent success as the artist on the tentpole Energon Universe title, also with Kirkman, Void Rivals. De Felici and Kirkman’s creative alchemy set the Energon Universe on a path to sales-chart-domination and Void Rivals in-and-of-itself went on to become one of the biggest launches of 2024. It is currently on its 12th reprint with no signs of slowing down in momentum. This recent breakout success makes Felici’s upcoming solo series one of the most exciting new developments in comics of the year.
“Anyone familiar with his work with Robert Kirkman on Oblivion Song and Void Rivals, as well as his own Kroma, should know that Lorenzo is one of the most exciting new artists of the last few years,” said Eric Stephenson, Publisher and Chief Creative Officer at Image Comics. “He’s shaping up to be a powerful force in the writing department, too, and we couldn’t be more excited to be working with him as he takes his work to the next level with Red Roots!”
In Red Roots, the lives of a professional killer and a high school teacher are bound by a terrifying, mysterious force.
“You don’t know what you’re stepping into. Red Roots will take you places,” said de Felici.
