See Atlantis like never before…blood-soaked & filled with monsters, in this first look at BRZRKR: POETRY OF MADNESS #1.
The press release follows:
Media Release -- BOOM! Studios revealed today a first look at BRZRKR: POETRY OF MADNESS #1 from iconic filmmaker and record-shattering comic creator Keanu Reeves, acclaimed writer and artist Steve Skroce (We Stand On Guard), and Eisner-winning colorist Dave Stewart (Black Hammer). The first-ever BRZRKR one-shot special pits the immortal B. against a Lovecraftian nightmare, available this July.
A sea of gore and devastation awaits as B., through a fateful chance encounter, safeguards the advanced and ancient realm of Atlantis as its unstoppable protector. But a deceived king serves as a symbol for the rot inside the kingdom, as the security and peace created through B.'s violence is shallow… The cracks created by a secret cult might spell a monstrous end for the legendary city, one beyond even B.'s ability to save.
BRZRKR: POETRY OF MADNESS #1 features covers by Steve Skroce, Travis Charest (Wildcats), David Aja (Hawkeye), and David Mack (Kabuki).
