"Tuve esta idea para el Moratorium, un purgatorio en el que los muertos, los Revólveres, descienden de humanos a criaturas demoníacas cada vez que dan la vuelta al Gyre", dice Platten. “EP1T0ME déjame oscurecer; Me divertí mucho tejiendo la retorcida historia de Hampton a través de su sórdido elenco de personajes y superponiendo el Detroit de hoy con una versión más infernal”.

"Revolvers es sin duda el libro de terror más oscuro que he hecho hasta ahora", dice DiBari. “Tiene un poco del neo-noir criminal de Michael Mann y mucho de Hellraiser de Clive Barker. El mundo que John y yo estamos creando es definitivamente una locura; ¡No puedo esperar a que los fanáticos de Top Cow lo vean!”.

Richard Leibowitz, presidente de EP1T0ME, agregó: “Como compañía de videojuegos, nos propusimos crear un concepto para un tirador competitivo de héroes en primera persona con un escenario de terror oscuro. Como de costumbre, JZP clavó los personajes, el escenario y la historia; es asombroso ver a Christian dar vida a Hampton, La Piton, Big Mike, Cali y el resto, incluido Detroit, en el cómic”.

PRESS RELEASE

WELCOME TO THE MORATORIUM; HAMPTON WALES GETS TIME

TO BATTLE REVOLVERS AND TO SOLVE HIS OWN MURDER MYSTERY

 Top Cow and EP1T0ME Partner on Revolvers

 Top Cow Productions, Inc., the company behind Witchblade, The Darkness and Wanted, announced today that it has partnered with EP1T0ME Studios, Inc. to co-produce and to publish Revolvers.

 Revolvers, penned by John Zuur Platten (St. Mercy), illustrated by Christian DiBari (TCP: Colossus, Tales Told in Techni-Horror) and colored by Simon Gough, introduces Hampton Wales, a Detroit homicide detective trapped in a mysterious and violent alternate reality, struggling to solve his own, seemingly mundane, murder.

“I had this idea for the Moratorium, a purgatory wherein the dead, the Revolvers, descend from humans to demonic creatures each time around the Gyre,” says Platten.  “EP1T0ME let me go dark; I had a blast weaving Hampton’s twisted story through his sordid cast of characters and overlaying today’s Detroit with a more hellish version of it.”

“Revolvers is hands down the darkest horror book I've done yet,” says DiBari.  “It's got a bit of that Michael Mann crime neo-noir and a lot of Clive Barker's Hellraiser.  The world that John and I are creating is definitely a crazy one; I can't wait for Top Cow fans to check it out!”

Richard Leibowitz, EP1T0ME’s President, added: “As a videogame company, we set out to create a concept for a competitive first-person hero shooter with a dark horror setting.  As usual, JZP nailed the characters, setting and story; it’s amazing to watch Christian bring Hampton, La Piton, Big Mike, Cali and the rest, including Detroit, to life in the comic.”

Revolvers #1 will be available for purchase at comic book shops and across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, comiXology and Google Play, on October 5, 2022.
