Feel the Heat in SLOW BURN a New Noir Limited Series From BOOM! Studios Terry Bunch, July 19, 2023 Feel the Heat in SLOW BURN a New Noir Limited Series From BOOM! Studios Acclaimed noir crime writer Ollie Masters (Snow Blind) and rising star artist Pierluigi Minotti (Lost Falls) spin a yarn about dirty deeds in a town on fire in SLOW BURN, from BOOM! Studios in Fall 2023. Hell is a place on Earth. Fleeing from a botched robbery in New York City, a junkie, her dying partner, and a dementia-ridden old man pull into a mining ghost town in central Pennsylvania. Obscured by the caustic vapors spewed forth from a still burning coal-seam fire from the 1960s, Trier seems like the perfect place for the trio to lay low, maybe score a fix, and potentially take a hostage. But this ghost town might prove more lively than any of them think. SLOW BURN #1 features a main cover by Matt Taylor (Deep State) with variants by acclaimed artists Paul Azaceta (Outcast), Tyler Jenkins (Apache Delivery Service) and Cliff Chiang (Paper Girls). “This is a comic about a fire that’s been burning underneath a town for decades and will continue burning for centuries. It’s about desperate people with violent pasts living on the edge, looking for a way out,” said Ollie Masters. “About how our parents shape who we are, for better and for worse. After Snow Blind, I knew BOOM! would be the perfect home for a story like this and I couldn’t be happier to be working with Pierluigi, Hass and the rest of the team on this weird little crime comic.” “The characters and story Ollie has created are incredibly unique and profound. I love working on these kinds of crime stories and with dark atmospheres and bad people,” said Pierluigi Minotti. “I couldn’t be happier BOOM! Studios and this amazing team have taken me on board to bring Slow Burn to life.” “It is a stroke of creative genius setting the backdrop to this hyper violent crime thriller in a town on fire,” said Acquisitions Editor Jon Moisan. “The shadows, the smoke, the lies, the secrets. Slow Burn has all the trappings of a modern noir masterpiece.” SLOW BURN #1 will be available in comic shops October 25, 2023. It is available for pre-order at your local comic shop. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers, including comiXology, iBooks, Google Play, and Kindle. For continuing news on SLOW BURN and more from BOOM!
