What if the deadliest assassin in all of Mexico, a man with dozens of kills to his name, was actually a vacuum repairman in Arizona?

Falcon City, Arizona. Jacques Ramirez works at Robotop, the leading home appliance company in the southwest United States. Jacques is efficient, thorough, and discreet. That last one is easy: he’s also mute. But everything changes when two members of one of Paso del Rio’s largest drug cartels stumble upon Jacques and believe him to be the deadly hitman who betrayed them in the past: the ruthless Ramirez.

Could it be that the cartel’s legendary clean-up man is really a legendary vacuum cleaner expert? Now that they’ve found him, the men of the cartel will do everything they can to kill this traitor!

Nicolas Petrimaux presents a tribute to the action thrillers of the 1980s and 90s, a brutal narrative with never a dull moment. Gunning for Ramirez is as much a descendant of Friedkin’s To Live and Die in L.A. as it is Taratino’s Pulp Fiction or Rodriguez’s Mexico Trilogy.

Key Selling Points

  • ONCE UPON A TIME IN MEXICO meets Quentin Tarantino’s PULP FICTION and the perfect handsell for fans of DEADLY CLASS, TOKYO GHOST, and Netflix’s OZARK.

  • A no holds barred, one-and-done standalone action story, previously published internationally by Glénat Comics to critical acclaim, and with a strong sales track abroad.

Image Comics to Publish Eisner Nominated Panel Syndicate Series ‘Universe!’ in Print

Image Comics will publish the Eisner Award nominated, Panel Syndicate five issue series UNIVERSE! by Albert Monteys in print for the first time in January 2021.

The popular digital comic will be collected and available in landscape hardcover format.

UNIVERSE! features a series of self-contained, yet interconnected, science fiction stories involving alien life, robot love, corporate greed, and travel through time, space, and perception.

“As a science-fiction fan I’ve always found that the short story format is the place where the genre casts a brighter light,” said Monteys. “From the classic stories of the golden age of sci-fi magazines or the Twilight Zone to Black Mirror. Meaningful stories with powerful ideas, spiked with wonder that leave you wanting more. Graphically I find myself going back to EC science-fiction comics from the ’50s, Warren Magazines from the ’70s and Les Humanoides Associées from the ’80s, all great stuff!”

UNIVERSE! will be a 9’25” x 6’93” landscape format hardcover and available anywhere you buy books on January 26, 2020.
