Fox's Sleepy Hollow Coming In A BOOM! Studios Series

Press Release

With the second season of Fox’s hit series “Sleepy Hollow” set to premiere next Monday, September 22, get ready for the tie-in comic book mini-series that will be launching next month on October 15th from BOOM! Studios.

Writer Marguerite Bennett (Butterfly, Batman: Joker’s Daughter) and artist Jorge Coelho (Polarity) dive into the mysterious town of Sleepy Hollow, New York, with new, original stories for Ichabod Crane (played by Tom Mison in the show) and Lt. Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie). Featuring multi-layered characters and creepy storylines, our four-issue Sleepy Hollow comic is perfect for “Sleepyheads” (self-described fans of the show) and newcomers alike. As an added bonus, each issue will feature a short backup story written and illustrated by Sleepy Hollow megafan Noelle Stevenson (Lumberjanes).

Sleepy Hollow #1 kicks off by showing a man after dying on the battlefield during the Revolutionary War. We see that Ichabod Crane has awakened in present-day Sleepy Hollow, New York. His resurrection is tied to the reappearance of the Headless Horseman, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Realizing it is his mission to help stop the end of the world, Ichabod teams with the SHPD’s Lt. Abbie Mills to meet each evil threat head-on. When minor miracles start to sweep the town, they’re glad something good seems to be happening for once. No decapitations, no headless horseman, no worries, right? But as one by one the miracles start to backfire, more and more violently, Abbie and Ichabod must find time between saving the world to save the citizens of Sleepy Hollow…

Sleepy Hollow #1 (AUG141139) arrives in comic shops on October 15th with a cover price of $3.99. The main cover is illustrated by Phil Noto, and a retailer incentive cover (1 in 15) is available from artist Jorge Coelho.
