The debut issue of NARCO has sold out again at the distributor level, prompting Image Comics to fast-track a third printing featuring an homage to the Evil Dead movie poster.

The press release follows:

Media Release – Plastic, Plush, Vinyl, and I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer creative duo Doug Wagner and Daniel Hillyard’s bestselling launch Narco has sold out completely at the distributor level yet again.

The third printing cover will feature art by Hillyard and pay homage to the iconic Evil Dead movie poster.

“I’m blown away by the amazing response to Narco,” said Hillyard. “Finding out that we were going to be heading back for a third print run just melted my brain (in a good way). And I got to squeeze in that Evil Dead homage!”

Wagner added: “It’s surreal, honestly. You don’t expect something like this when you’re making the book. I’m just incredibly grateful to the retailers and readers who’ve taken a chance on Narco. A third printing is something I don’t take lightly.”

Marcus Wesphal blacks out from the slightest surge of excitement, a narcoleptic curse that’s kept him quiet, calm, and locked away at home. But when he witnesses the girl next door’s murder and collapses, he wakes to find himself the prime suspect. Now Marcus has one chance to clear his name: outrun his failing body, reconstruct the moments he lost, and hunt a killer before he blacks out again… possibly for good.

In a recent episode of the Let’s Talk Comics podcast, Wagner spoke in-depth about the Narco series and shared plans for expanding his “The Materials Universe” of unsettling horror titles at Image.
