PORTLAND, Ore. 04/16/2025 — White-hot new series Assorted Crisis Events—by superstar-
in-the-making Deniz Camp (20th Century Men, The Ultimates, Absolute Martian Manhunter) and artistic wunderkind Eric Zawadzki (Heart Attack, House of El), multiple-Eisner Award winning colorist Jordie Bellaire (They’re Not Like Us, Birds of Prey), and masterful letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou (Time Before Time, Poison Ivy)—has sold out completely yet again at the distributor level. Image Comics will fast-track the debut issue of the series back to print this week in order to keep up with growing demand.
The Assorted Crisis Events #1, third printing will feature new cover art by Proof and The Moon is Following Us artist, Riley Rossmo.
“The response to this comic has been absolutely unbelievable, and totally beyond any expectations,” said Camp. “To see people consistently show up for a book like this, a book that is so personal to everyone on the team, is deeply humbling. I cannot thank readers enough, and promise to keep working to make the best possible comics for you.”
Eric Stephenson, Publisher & Chief Creative Officer at Image Comics added: “Comics always benefit from an influx of new talent, and Deniz and Eric [Zawadzki] are both at the top of the list when it comes to interesting new voices. That being the case, it’s no surprise that the first issue keeps selling out. Being fortunate enough to have seen what’s in store for #2 and beyond, this first issue is only a glimpse of what this creative team has planned for this series.”
Time has no bounds in this world, and readers will follow in the footsteps of normal people who are just trying to get through a normal day, but instead have to deal with time loops and space portals, confused time travelers from different eras, and alternate dimensional versions of themselves…all while just taking a stroll down the street. Meanwhile, the overarching story dives into what caused the rules of time to suddenly shift, and if it’s possible to reverse the damage. Fans of Crisis on Infinite Earths, Black Mirror, and Doctor Who will enjoy this time-bending, clock-shattering new series.
A teaser trailer for the series reveals a set of mysterious clocks ticking…but in what direction? Only time will tell!
