LOS ANGELES, CA (April 18, 2024) – BOOM! Studios today revealed that UNCANNY VALLEY #1, the premiere issue of a brand new original series by fan-favorite writer Tony Fleecs (Stray Dogs), acclaimed illustrator Dave Wachter (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and letterer Pat Brosseau has sold out at the distributor level! Join in on the wildest ride of cartoon mayhem, family drama, and deadly secrets in UNCANNY VALLEY.
Oliver is a seemingly typical 12 year old boy… except for a mysterious family history that seems to start and end with his mother. Oh, and his unexplainable powers, that is.
He can do things other boys can’t, to the point of landing himself in some trouble. Baffled by the surreal, cartoonish nature of his abilities, and followed by a murder of peculiar crows, Oliver begins to pull the thread on the secrets his family has kept from him for so long…
