SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN #1 Gets Second Printing with New Variant Cover Due to Selling Out Weeks Before Release

BOOM! Studios has a new series on the way from author James Tynion IV and artist Werther Dell’Edera called Something is Killing the Children. You know what’s awesome, the first issue has already sold out, and it doesn’t release until September 4! This has prompted BOOM! To not only do another printing of the issue, but they’ve decided to get artist Dani Strips to create a new variant cover for this second printing.

Something Is Killing the Children is about a close-knit community rocked by a series of murders and the sudden appearance of Erica Slaughter, a mysterious figure who rides into town claiming she can stop the brutal murders turning their lives upside down.

But the local police and authority figures don’t know what to make of this dangerous outsider who claims to believe the local kids and their rumors of monsters in the woods. Can they trust this so-called “monster” hunter with their children’s lives? Or is Erica Slaughter an unhinged killer who’ll only bring more tragedy into their midst?

I’m really excited for this new series and cannot wait for its release. You can check out the trailer and new variant cover below. Something is Killing the Children #1 will be available wherever you like comics on September 4 with the second printing arriving on September 11.

In a sleepy town in the heart of America, children have started to die in horrific ways. The local police are mystified by the brutal murders, and frantic to catch the killer.
