Read the Intense Preview for BURY THE LEDE from Gaby Dunn and BOOM! Studios
Bury the Lede is a new original graphic novel written for adults from author Gaby Dunn, artist Claire Roe, and colorist Miquel Muerto in partnership with BOOM! Studios. The novel is said to be inspired by Dunn’s experiences at The Boston Globe and it looks like a crazy thriller. How much of it do you think is based on her experiences and how much do you think is embellished?
“Cub reporter Madison Jackson is young, scrappy, and hungry to prove that she deserves her coveted college internship at the premier newspaper in town, The Boston Lede, where she dreams of a career-making headline. So when her police scanner mentions a brutal murder tied to a prominent Boston family, Madison races to the crime scene, looking for the scoop of the century.
What she finds instead is the woman who’ll change her life forever: Dahlia Kennedy, a celebrity socialite covered in blood and the prime suspect in the murder of her husband and child. When Madison is the only person Dahlia will speak to, everything rides on the untested shoulders of this young journalist who sinks ever deeper into the dark, twisted landscape of the city’s hidden circles of crime, corruption, and privilege in order to discover the truth.”
Bury the Lede will be available at local comic book shope on October 2 with bookstores and electronic outlets having it available on October 8. Check out the preview below.
