Alex Maleev’s Breathtaking Hank Howard Painting Revealed, Five Days To Launch

Posted on by

The-Complete-HANK-HOWARDBad Idea has unveiled the stunning cover to The Complete HANK HOWARD ultra-deluxe hardcover. Beautifully painted by superstar artist, Alex Maleev (Batman, Daredevil).

One of the most talented and respected artists in comics, Maleev rarely ventures outside of the big two. An Eisner award-winning master illustrator, known for his seminal work on Daredevil, with frequent collaborator Brian Michael Bendis, which became the visual template for the hit Netflix television adaptation.

For Hank Howard, Pizza Detective, Maleev paints a stunning vision of a Hollywood, Florida besieged by pizza crime. His painting is both reminiscent for and a modernization of the evocative paperback pulps covers that adorned crime and mystery novels of the 1920s and 1930s, while simultaneously invoking, through color, modernist fare such as the work of Sean Baker and A24 in The Florida Project. Against it all, he casts Hank as the prototypical detective of noir cinema in the vein of such giants as Philip Marlowe, Sam Spade and Ed Exley.

In You’ll Do Bad Things, it’s been ten years since the release of He Came in with a Smile, the true crime smash hit that chronicled the brutal murders committed by the Nursery Rhyme Killer. But in the decade since its release, its author Seth Holms hasn’t produced another title.

New Ongoing Series The Hive, Delivers A Sting This February

Posted on by

the-hivePopular creators AJ Lieberman (Cowboy Ninja Viking, Term Life, Batman: Gotham Knights) and Mike Henderson (Nailbiter, The Forged, Cable: Love & Chrome) are joining forces to co-create the buzzy new ongoing Image Comics series The Hive. The stinging crime series follows former worker bee criminals—who have special hivemind mind control powers—and a new recruit as they try to flee a vengeful Queen Bee crime boss on the warpath. Bee hierarchy and biology meets crime warfare in this action-packed neo-noir story, launching in February 2025.

Mason Shaw is no one. A worker bee. All that changes when he crosses paths with a few stragglers trying to stay one step ahead of a queen with immense powers. There are those among us that can connect and manipulate the people around them into a hivemind state—like a beehive. These people are called Hivers. It’s not hypnotism. It’s not some kind of drug. It’s biological. The Hive is about a group of hunted hivers struggling to remain one step ahead of their wrathful former queen who is hunting them down. But when a mysterious worker bee gets recruited it starts a series of events that puts everyone on a collision course and will end with everyone in danger… especially the Queen. Sex. Violence. And Bees. Welcome to The Hive.

“The Hive is nothing you’d expect but exactly what you’d want in a dirty, neo-noir story set against a world where some people can connect and control others in a hivemind—like bees in a hive,” said Lieberman and Henderson in a joint statement. “Our fascination with bees and the hierarchy within a hive is what led us to start thinking about how that might look if graphed onto humans. What we can’t wait for is for fans to see how the story builds to an ending that expands the world we’ve created in the most unexpected way.”
