B. Clay Moore + Mack Chater catch the ‘Last Flight Out of Wichita’

The crime series will debut from DSTLRY in February.

B. Clay Moore (Hawaiian Dick) and Mack Chater (Sword Daughter) will enter a world of “bad decisions and brutal consequences” in Last Flight Out of Wichita, coming from DSTLRY next year.

Set in the 1970s, the crime series will feature two down-on-their-luck Vietnam veterans who become wrapped up in Kansas City’s underworld.

“Last Flight Out of Wichita examines the different ways people try to reach for an American Dream that isn’t available to them through conventional methods,” Moore said. “The series takes place in 1977, at the tail end of a recession and the main protagonists—Vietnam veterans—have already had their lives forever altered by systems beyond their control. In desperation, they decide to step outside of the conventional system and take matters into their own hands, only to realize that there are always other, more powerful, people also existing beyond the system’s control. And when those people are crossed, there’s nowhere to turn for help.”

New miniseries expands the world of ‘Lazarus’

Greg Rucka and Michael Lark’s Image series enlists Eric Trautmann, Steve Lieber and more to explore different corners of the ‘Lazarus’ universe.

Greg Rucka and Michael Lark have recruited several writers and artists for a new six-issue miniseries set in the world of their popular Lazarus comic from Image. Lazarus: X+66 will feature six different stories that look into “neglected” corners of the world they’ve been building.

“Part of the joy of writing Lazarus for me is exploring and defining different aspects of the world, and in particular the characters who inhabit it,” Rucka said in a press release. “Following the events of ‘Cull,’ and gearing up for the inevitable trauma that will be ‘Fracture,’ this was the ideal time and place to look into some of the corners of our universe that had been, for one reason or another, neglected, while at the same time buttressing and expanding on the overall ‘main story’ that Michael and I are telling. Every one of these stories is important in the larger narrative, and getting to provide a laser focus on them is simply something that we can’t do in the confines of the pages of the monthly.”
