A new series was just announced from Skybound and Image Comics featuring the Eisner Award-winning duo David & Maria Lapham (Stray Bullets) along with co-creators Chris Black (creator and showrunner, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters) and David Alpert. Good As Dead explores the haunting story of crime, justice, & death, and is set to debut in comic book shops on September 17, 2025!!
See just how far a small town is willing to go to keep its secrets by checking out our preview down below!!

Writers: David & Maria Lapham Artist: David Lapham Colorist: Dee Cunniffe
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.
"I can’t tell you how excited Maria and I are about this book coming out,” said David Lapham. “Chris Black and David Alpert provided us with their initial concept and outline and generously gave us the room and edict to ‘do our thing.’ And we went for it. It’s both completely what you’d expect from us based on our Stray Bullets work and at the same time, it’s unlike anything we’ve ever done before, combining elements of the surreal, science fiction, conspiracy, horror and, of course, classic noir."
Good as Dead #1 (Lunar Code Coming Soon| SRP: $7.99) will be available at comic book shops and digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play, on Wednesday, September 17, 2025
