Two Minds Share One Body In Horror Series About Connected Culture
by Hannah Means Shannon
Black Mask Studios has released information about their books arriving in February 2018, and some great news has arrived–the critically acclaimed writers of The Dregs and the artist of Image Comics’ SEX will be introducing a new horror series about “body image, social media, and memory” in Come Into Me.
The Dregs was one of my favorite comics of 2017, smart, disturbing, and thought provoking, and I look forward to see where Lonnie Nadler, Zac Thompson, and Piotr Kowalski take the series. Additional team members include Niko Guardia on colors and Ryan Ferrier on letters.
Black Mask say:
When an entrepreneur with a god complex creates a technology that allows two minds to share one body, he doesn’t anticipate the degenerative effects of long-term trials. Come Into Me is a contemporary comment on connected culture and our longing for approval in the digital age. This is a world where technology and flesh become indistinguishable, begging the question, “How much sharing is too much sharing?” Prepare yourself for the insane lovechild of The Fly and Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind.
Come Into Me #1 will arrive in comic shops in February 2018, running to 36 pages.
Cover B is by Devmalya Pramanik.
