The first issue of the buzz-worthy title sent back to print
As darkly beautiful and engrossing as you’d expect from Azzarello & Risso…with a kick as strong as the best corn liquor.”
—Jason Aaron
Image Comics is pleased to announce that author Brian Azzarello (ALPHA KING) and artist Eduardo Risso, the New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award winning creative team that redefined the crime genre with 100 Bullets, have served up another hit with MOONSHINE. The first issue is being rushed back to print in order to keep up with increasing customer demand.
Set during Prohibition, and deep in the backwoods of Appalachia, MOONSHINE #1 tells the story of Lou Pirlo, a city-slick “torpedo” sent from New York City to negotiate a deal with the best moonshiner in West Virginia, one Hiram Holt. What Lou doesn’t figure on is that Holt is just as cunning and ruthless as any NYC crime boss. Because not only will Holt do anything to protect his illicit booze operation, he’ll stop at nothing to protect a much darker family secret…a bloody, supernatural secret that must never see the light of day… or better still, the light of the full moon.
MOONSHINE #1 remains available for purchase across all digital platforms, including the Image Comics website (imagecomics.com), the official Image Comics iOS app, Comixology’s website (comixology.com), iOS, Android, and Google Play.
MOONSHINE #1, 2nd printing (Diamond Code SEP168239), MOONSHINE #2 Cover A by Risso (Diamond Code SEP160739), and MOONSHINE #2 Cover B by Dave Johnson (Diamond Code SEP160740) will be available on Wednesday, November 16th. The final order cutoff for retailers is Monday, October 24th.
