Z2 Comics Team Up With Ice Nine Kills Again For A Bloody Good Time

Z2 Comics has announced that they will be making a sequel to their comic Inked in Blood featuring Ice Nine Kills. Inked in Blood II: Once Upon A Crime is a direct sequel that blends the real world journey of the famed theatrical metal pioneers with a claustrophobic, adrenaline doused dose of serial killer slayings. The sequel reunites Ice Nine Kills architect Spencer Charnas with co-writer Ryan J. Downey and artists Nino Cammarata and Giorgia Sposito with Mike Cortada making the cover art. Here’s the official synopsis:

Ice Nine Kills—Inked in Blood II escalates the tension from the first volume, introducing Max Charnas—the identical twin brother of INK mastermind Spencer Charnas—who hatches a plan to blackmail, frame, and destroy his sibling. The new volume ignites at The Silver Scream Con, the real-world Massachusetts gathering that debuted last August, where the blood and power chords continue to fly. The resulting thrill ride packs more crunch and hooks than an Ice Nine Kills breakdown, with serial killers and doppelgängers cleaving a bloody path from panel to panel. 

It should be a really fun time for horror fans. If you’re not familiar, Ice Nine Kills is a metal band that has been honing their sound for two decades. They are well known for their last two albums, The Silver Scream and Welcome to Horrorwood: The Silver Scream 2, paying homage to a wide variety of horror movies from the ‘80s and ‘90s and having an accompanying video. The videos often star actors and props from the inspiring movies. If you enjoy horror I would actually recommend checking them out. 

Inked in Blood II: Once Upon A Crime will release in standard and deluxe hardcover editions in Fall 2023. The deluxe edition comes with a print triptych by Phillip Sevy art prints and two sided Charnas collector’s coin. Oversized platinum editions will come signed by Charnas with an elegant slipcase, triptych art prints, the collector’s coin, and the Ice Nine Kills double LP of Welcome to Horrorwood: The Silver Scream 2 in an exclusive purple splatter vinyl variant. You can pre order your copy now.
