Written by John Edward Betancourt One of the best parts of being a nerd that geeks in these modern times, is the sheer respect that now exists for properties that we love. Because such respect has motivated some creatives to step up to the plate and put forth stories that smooth over injustices in long standing franchises, and it’s brought forth long-awaited sequels, and in the publishing world, it’s prompted a push to make sure that popular titles that sell out… find new life so that fans don’t miss out on great stories. As evidenced by what Dead Sky Publishing has done. For their wildly popular comic series, The Case of the Bleeding Wall, sold out quickly when it was first released, and rightfully so. Since it featured work from Bram Stoker Award-winning and Edgar Award-winning author Joe R.Lansdale (Hap & Leonard, Bubba Ho Tep) and his daughter, author/country singer Kasey Lansdale (Creepshow, Impossible Monsters), with illustration from award-winning artist Daniele Serra (Hellraiser, The Crow) and colorist Tom Napolitano (Swallower of Shades, Joker). But rather than just call it a day, and leave this brilliant saga, one that blended genres together, to memory… Dead Sky really has gone above and beyond. For they have released a Collected Edition of this saga into the world, so all can enjoy the cohesive nature and incredible stories within its pages, and well, to properly do this release justice, here are all the details upon it, and links to get your copy, courtesy of Dead Sky Publishing. ‘On September 20, 2023, Dead Sky Publishing launched the first issue of the comics series THE CASE OF THE BLEEDING WALL and it sold out immediately. Due to high demand for a second printing, it was reissued January 24 with a new cover from New York Times bestselling and multiple Eisner Award-winning comics creator Dustin Nguyen. The subsequent three issues sold out as well. Now all four issues of the series will be available in a beautiful quality collected edition, which publishes May 28. “It's important to us at Dead Sky to collect The Case of the Bleeding Wall because we want readers to discover Dana Roberts and Jana Davis for years to come,” Dead Sky Publishing editor and co-publisher Steve Wands. “With the nature of monthly comics there's a very narrow window of availability and that time has already passed. We hope readers that enjoyed the series come back for the trade, and that new readers can discover us, and their new favorite supernormal sleuths.” THE CASE OF THE BLEEDING WALL is the hit new comics series from Bram Stoker Award and Edgar Award-winning author Joe R.Lansdale (Hap & Leonard, Bubba Ho Tep) and his daughter, author/country singer Kasey Lansdale (Creepshow, Impossible Monsters), adapted by Kasey from their novel of the same title. They join forces with award-winning artist Daniele Serra (Hellraiser, The Crow) and colorist Tom Napolitano to bring you Dana and Jana—the new dynamic duo of supernatural-er, supernormal sleuthing. THE CASE OF THE BLEEDING WALL storyline: Dana Roberts, seasoned investigator of the supernormal, is called to Italy by an ex-lover to investigate a strange phenomenon—the mystery of a bleeding wall. She meets Jana Davis at a book signing event, and together they head to Italy in search of answers. Are they dealing with a haunted house? A demon perhaps? Or a vengeful specter from the other side? Dana has battled angry jinns, malevolent shadows, ancient travelers, and soul-sucking shapeshifters, but in The Case of the Bleeding Wall, she and her new sidekick, Jana, may face their most dangerous challenge yet.
