Image Comics have announced the upcoming launch of Crosswind, a new ongoing thriller series from Gail Simone (Red Sonja, Secret Six) and Cat Staggs (Wonder Woman ’77, Smallville Season 11), which will get underway in June.
“This is possibly the most thrilling project of my career, and Cat Staggs brought her best stomping boots to the game; she’s absolutely killing it,” said Simone. “There’s nothing else quite like it. It smells of gunpowder, nitro, and one-hour hotel rooms. It’s wrong and messed up, and we hope people love it as much as we do.”
“I am thrilled to be working with the incomparable Gail Simone in a genre that is close to my heart,” said Staggs. “The challenge of bringing these characters to life and developing their world has made this project something I’m proud of. Readers are in for a wild ride.”
A slick and ruthless Chicago hitman. A smart but downtrodden Seattle housewife. When an inexplicable event strikes these two random strangers, their bodies, souls, and lives are switched—to potentially deadly effect.
Crosswind #1 is set for release on June 21st.
