HELLMOUTH #1 Sells Out with BOOM! Studios Fast-Tracking a Second Printing
Comic fans are so going crazy with excitement for the upcoming Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Hellmouth series that the first issue has already sold out weeks before it hit shelves. BOOM! Studios is fast-tracking a second printing to help accommodate the strong demand. This second printing will feature a new cover from Dan Mora. The story is written by Jordie Bellaire and Jeremy Lambert with Eleonora Carlini providing the interior art.
“From beneath you, it devours...Buffy and the Scooby Gang will have to overcome recent fractures and learn to trust each other again as they race to close the Hellmouth before Evil can be unleashed on, first, Sunnydale, and then, the world. Meanwhile, Angel, the vampire cursed with a soul, arrives in town to seek his redemption by doing whatever it takes to destroy the path to Hell...and no human, demon, or Slayer will stand in his way.”
Filip Sablik from BOOM! released the following statement:
“HELLMOUTH is exactly what you want from the first Buffyverse event, and we can’t wait for all the Buffy and Angel fans to experience it. From the first official meeting between Buffy and Angel to the Scooby Gang trying to pull Sunnydale back from the brink of destruction, and Spike’s newfound team battling for the soul of Los Angeles, nothing will go the way you expect! We’re beyond thrilled to have such enthusiastic support for the book, necessitating a second printing to meet the overwhelming demand.”
The first printing of Hellmouth #1 will be available on October 9 with the second printing becoming available on October 16.
