This NCBD, the search for the truth begins in the first issue of our terrifying new horror series, Charred Remains! Written by Anthony Cleveland (STARGAZER) with art and colors by Andrea Mutti (BUNNY MASK), and letters by the amazing Taylor Esposito, this exciting new series follows Amy Durant, the survivor of an inferno caused by an entity of smoke and ash– The Fire Man. A decade later, Amy is determined to bring the truth to light and face the flames… but can she prove that The Fire Man really exists? Or will it all go up in smoke?
“I was a coroner deputy for four years and the few cases that really got to me all involved fire,” said writer Anthony Cleveland, “This story was an opportunity to revisit those fears and put them on the page for readers to experience.”
Writer: Anthony Cleveland – Artist: Andrea Mutti – Letterer: Taylor Esposito
Release Date: December 13th, 2023
Synopsis: A dark entity made of fire, smoke, and ash–“The Fire Man”–blazes through a young girl’s home, killing her entire family. Amy Durant swears she saw this supernatural creature, but no one ever believed her. Unfortunately, these past fears reignite a decade later as her city goes up in flames. With no one else to rely on, Amy is forced to battle both past trauma and the face of the inferno.
“Chinatown as a horror story” is how I eagerly approached this project! A seamless combination of classic conspiracy noir and horror against the beautiful backdrop of New Orleans with all its allure, history, and mystery. We crafted an intense journey for readers and we can’t wait for them to feel the heat!”
–Writer, Anthony Cleveland
