    Do I get shot for admitting I have not one single boom book in my collection? Humphries has been getting such good critical feedback though so I'm on this, happy to make my first boom book my first Humphries book too. Although I am planning on grabbing Betrayal of the apes so whatever comes first in trade format.

    Sounds like fun. Always love a good alternate reality romp.

    A dystopian space opera set in alternate realities? Sounds awesome!

    sounds great... I wonder what it'll look like.

    'with an artist to be named later' tells me you're not really ready to be making the promo circuit yet.

    Man, am really excited by this and I'm glad Humphries is getting more press and work. Also, that cover, Irving is the man

    I'm in. Humphries has consistently delivered on every book he's done.

    I too have passed on Boom up until now. Not that some of their stuff doesn't look good, but my sources are finite.

    This Frazer Irving cover grabbed me and Humphries sounds very good here.

    Really. Anxious to see who the interior artist is.

    Pretty much haha. I came along too late for the anchor sadly, thats a book I would have bought from Boom for sure, but otherwise I just have to prioritise with so many new books and up until now there hasn't been one. This looks fantastic though. Comicsalliance has some exclusive cover variants up, Ben Oliver has done a fantastic one:
