Coffin Bound Is The New Grindhouse Comic From Watters, DaNi And Image Comics
by Olly MacNamee
Over on Lucifer, writer Dan Watters is showing himself to be something of the master of the macabre so I imagine his new series, alongside 2000AD mainstay artist DaNi and colourist Brad Simpson, entitled Coffin Bound, should be a scream. A blood-curdling one, but a scream, nonetheless.
Chased by an unstoppable killer, Izzy Tyburn has decided that if the world won’t have her in it, it can have nothing of her at all. She’s retreading her life, leaving nothing but burned rubber, ash… and the sun-scorched bones of those who get in her way.
Watters had this to say about this grindhouse gore-fest:
This is a book all about the inevitability of death, and the choice each of us faces between coming to terms with it, or trying to deny it,” said Watters. “This is a book drawn beautifully by Dani, with Brad Simpsons’ filthy bright colors. This is a book about cars, guns, and sex—and how each of those things does little to stave off the bottomless void waiting just beyond the veil of our known existence. What was the question again?
