‘The Exorcism at Buckingham Palace’ #1 Sells Out; Second Print to Possess Comic Shops Same Day as #2
A new terror has possessed the comic book industry, as Dread has learned today that The Exorcism at Buckingham Palace #1, the new horror comic from creator/writer Hannah Rose May (Smile: For the Camera), has sold out! Apparently, the power of May has compelled readers everywhere to dive into the new series. But never fear, a second print is on the way!
In the series, London’s royal residence is tormented by a demonic presence while characters uncover the frightening truth behind the family’s curse.
Kelsey Ramsay (Godzilla: Heist), did the artwork.
Said May, “We’re sold out and going back to print! I couldn’t be more thrilled. To see readers not just connect with The Exorcism at Buckingham Palace but demand more? That’s the response every creator dreams of. Massive thanks to retailers for their support and to readers for showing up.”
An expansion of the The Exorcism At franchise with IDW’s best-selling horror imprint IDW Dark, the prior hit series, The Exorcism at 1600 Penn (on sale now), also received rave reviews and is currently in development as a feature film with Blumhouse-Atomic Monster. Hannah Rose May and IDW Publishing CEO Davidi Jonas are serving as executive producers.
The second printing of The Exorcism at Buckingham Palace – featuring new cover art by Damien Worm – goes on sale April 29th, the same day as issue #2.
However, fans should pre-order both comics by this Monday, March 23rd, to guarantee copies, or they may find themselves spewing chunks of pea soup over missing out.
Get a look at the covers for the second print and issue #2 below.
