EVENT HORIZON Sequel Comic Announced, Final Reprints of Hit Prequel Series Arriving

Almost 30 years after its release in theaters, the cult-classic horror movie Event Horizon has returned and taken the comic book industry by storm.

IDW Publishing is proud to announce all four of the currently released issues of the prequel series have sold out, and a brand new series, set many years after the events in the film, is set to debut in April, 2026.

From the brilliant mind of Eisner Award-winning writer Christian Ward (Batman: City of Madness, Two Face) comes EVENT HORIZON: INFERNO. After captivating fans with the twisted prequel series, Ward returns to reveal what happens 200 years after the unforgettable events of the movie while amping up both the shocking terror and gripping action with artist Rob Carey (Aliens: Resistance, Outsiders).

“I’m thrilled to continue the story of Event Horizon. First we told you the story about what happened before the events of the film and now we’re exploring what happened after the credits rolled,” said Ward. “Get ready for more sci-fi, more excitement and especially more cosmic terror. There are more demons in hell and we’re only just beginning.”

After receiving glowing reviews from critics and fans alike, issues of the prequel series EVENT HORIZON: DARK DESCENT from Ward, Tristan Jones, Pip Martin, and Alex Ray keep selling out. To meet the remarkable demand, IDW Publishing is proud to announce the last and final reprints of the first four issues of the hit horror series. These new printings will be the last chance for readers to get single issues of the incredibly popular series. Fans who miss out will not be able to obtain a physical copy of the terrifying tale until the collected trade paperback edition arrives next summer.

Pre- orders for all four new and final printings are due December 15. Be sure to contact a comic shop before this date to guarantee copies. All four new printings go on sale February 4, 2026, which is the same day the final issue of the chilling series also arrives in shops
