Legendary creator John Byrne (X-Men, Fantastic Four, She-Hulk, Next Men) goes apocalyptic in a brand new series from IDW Publishing this May. What if you could watch the world burn but were helpless to stop it? Astronauts watch as the Earth is torched by solar flares in Doomsday.1.
“I’ve been thinking for some time that I would like to revisit a post-apocalypse kind of scenario, such as was seen in my very first ‘dramatic’ work in comics, but this time without the more obvious fantasy elements of that original series (mermaids, alien robots, frozen mammoths, etc.),” said Byrne. “When bits and pieces of this new series first started to percolate around in my head, I knew almost at once the shape that ‘revisit’ would take; something in the ‘All-New, All-Different’ vein. And the first time I doodled some images of my ‘crew,’ I knew I was there!”
