SDCC16: Slayer's New Comic Will Be Brutal
Jul 22, 2016
Dark Horse Comics and thrash-punk titans Slayer have joined forces to deliver a new comic series this holiday season!
With full participation from the band and taking inspiration from Slayer’s recent Repentless music videos, disciple Jon Schnepp will pen the three-issue comic series with interior bloodlines drawn by Guiu Vilanova. Glenn Fabry’s covers reign in blood while postmortem Eric Powell will illustrate the variant cover for the first issue.
Slayer bassist and vocalist Tom Araya and guitarist Gary Holt talked with PREVIEWSworld at the Dark Horse booth at SDCC about Slayer: Repentless #1 (of 3).
"It's going to be pretty brutal, which is good," said Araya.
