James S.A. Corey Returns to THE EXPANSE in A Little Death

Calling all Beltalowda (and Inners and OPA)! BOOM! Studios proudly presents THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH, which picks up the story where the groundbreaking events of THE EXPANSE: DRAGON TOOTH left off! This BOOM! Direct Reserve campaign will feature exclusive variants of each comic, available in single-issue, softcover and hardcover collections, plus slipcased editions and sets available nowhere else. These variants will be limited to this BOOM! Direct Reserve Campaign, never to be printed again!

Under the direct supervision and creative guidance of THE EXPANSE creator, James S.A. Corey, THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH is an in-canon sequel story following the events of THE EXPANSE: DRAGON TOOTH. Alongside Corey and TV studio Alcon Television Group, superstar actor Wes Chatham (Amos Burton, The Expanse) makes his comic book writing debut, joining forces with returning stars writer Andy Diggle (The Expanse: Dragon Tooth, The Losers) and artist Francesco Pisa (The Expanse: Dragon Tooth). Together, they will weave together the threads of the show, answer lingering questions, and take readers and viewers alike far beyond the stellar horizon in this monumental 4-issue comic book series.

The epic, immersive universe of THE EXPANSE has captured the imaginations of science fiction fans around the globe for over a decade – first in the Hugo and Dragon Award winning novel series and then in critically acclaimed, Saturn Award winning television series (now streaming on Amazon Prime) – instantly entering the highest echelon of genre-defining Sci-Fi.

The Hugo award winning series, based on the hugely popular science fiction novels by James S.A. Corey, was developed and scripted by the Academy Award nominated writing duo Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby who executive produce the series alongside Naren Shankar, Andrew Kosove, Broderick Johnson, Laura Lancaster, Sharon Hall, Sean Daniel, Jason Brown, Daniel Abraham, Ty Franck and Dan Nowak. Shankar serves as showrunner for all seasons. The Expanse is produced by Alcon Television Group.

Following the fallout of THE EXPANSE: DRAGON TOOTH, the Rocinante crew is plunged into a high stakes conspiracy when an old acquaintance of Amos Burton’s comes to him for aid. Set in the same 30 year period between Babylon’s Ashes (Book 6) and Persepolis Rising (Book 7) and after the conclusion of The Expanse Season 6, THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH continues the story, available in single issue or graphic novel format.

THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH will be available in one of five slipcased hardcover sets along with THE EXPANSE, and THE EXPANSE: ORIGINS. Fans can secure exclusive variants of all three collections available only through this BOOM! Direct Reserve campaign, never to be printed again.

“It’s an absolute joy to be able to publish more stories in this world and have such an incredible creative team come together to expand the universe of THE EXPANSE,” said Deputy Publisher, Bryce Carlson. “Fans better buckle up and get ready.”

THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH BOOM! Direct Reserve campaign will run for 30 days, with special surprises, exciting product reveals, and hidden stretch goals unveiled throughout the month. Plus, for the first 24 hours, fans who pre-order any physical tier will automatically receive an exclusive Expanse Dog Tag as a special Early Bird Bonus!
