Image Comics has a new original series coming up on October 14th, 2020 with the debut of Commanders in Crisis. The new series comes from writer Steve Orlando (Wonder Woman, Doom Patrol: Milk Wars, Martian Manhunter) working with artist Davide Tinto (Marvel Action: Spider-Man) on it. This new ongoing series is produced by Arancia Studio, an Italian media company that worked on Mirka Andolfo’s bestselling Image Comics titles.
“Commanders in Crisis is all the energy and creativity I’ve served for the past five years, now completely unchained!” said Orlando. “No rules, no restraints, the type of strange and passionate ideas that brought me into the medium in the first place. Comics should be bold, comics should be big, and comics should be badass. This is my first freelance launch since 2015, and we’re taking a nuclear shot across the bow. No vanilla vengeance here! This is a fight for comics as they need to be.”
“I am really happy about being onboard for Commanders In Crisis,” added Tinto. Steve is a great guy and a fantastic writer and publishing with Image Comics, which put out Invincible, my favorite superhero comic, is a dream come true. I am very thankful for the opportunity.”
Plot Concept: The last survivors of the Multiverse live among us under new, superheroic identities, five survivors of doomed worlds…taking a second chance to ensure our world lives on. A new twist on strange superhero comics, with a bleeding-edge eye on the modern moment, Commanders in Crisis follows in the footsteps of Doom Patrol and Thunderbolts as five unexpected heroes come together to solve a murder unlike any other. The victim? Compassion itself…This is ideacide!
