Spread Returns This July with New Artist John Bivens for Sanctuary Story Arc

by | May 24, 2016

[Press Release] Writer Justin Jordan (LUTHER STRODE, DEAD BODY ROAD), artist John Bivens (DARK ENGINE), and colorist Felipe Sobreiro (LUTHER STRODE) will launch a new story arc in their ongoing gore-iffic survival story this July.

Previously in SPREAD, Jack and Molly struggled to save No’s life as enemies new and old came at them from all sides.

In SPREAD #14, No and company have found a place where civilization seems to have survived and where safety can be found. Is it too good to be true? Also, starting this issue: a special four-part series of interlocking covers by co-creator KYLE STRAHM!

“New arc. New artist. Same bloody mayhem,” said Jordan. “Get ready for the craziness.”

“Pretty sure my cover has the largest nipple ever on the front of an Image comic,” added Bivens.

“The work John has been doing on this arc is right in line with the spirit of SPREAD,” said co-creator and original artist Kyle Strahm. “He puts the juice in all the right places.”

“Much like the Spread itself, we’ve been hidden underground, extending our carrion tentacles and getting ready to grab people when they least expect it…” said Sobreiro. “Wait, I shouldn’t have warned you just now. CRAP!”

SPREAD #14 Cover A by Kyle Strahm and Felipe Sobreiro (Diamond code: MAY160619) hits stores Wednesday, July 6th. SPREAD #14 Cover B by John Bivens and Felipe Sobreiro (Diamond code: MAY160620) will also be available Wednesday, July 6th. Final order cutoff deadline for retailers is Monday, June 13th.
