Publisher Description.  Skybound and Image Comics unveiled a new look at interior pages from the all-new comic book series Good as Dead, from David & Maria Lapham (Stray Bullets) and co-creators Chris Black (creator and showrunner, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters) and David Alpert.

Set in the shadows of a seemingly quiet small town, Good as Dead is a simmering thriller packed with crime, justice, death, and long-buried secrets.  The first issue of this haunting tale will debut in comic book shops on September 17, 2025.

The Emissary Bridge has always connected the citizens of Port Lindon to hope and opportunity.  But when one man shockingly sets himself on fire, the bridge now brings something else to the town – CERTAIN DEATH.

As the town's lead lawman, Sheriff David Calhoun will need to stay one step ahead of the forces looking to take his town apart.  If he has any chance of bringing the truth to light, he'll need to expose generations of secrets while outrunning death itself.

Eash issue of Good as Dead will be double-sized and written by David and Maria Lapham, with art and letters by David Lapham, and colors by Dee Cunniffe (Redneck).

Good as Dead #1 will be available at comic book shops and digital on Wednesday, September 17, 2025.
