12 Most Anticipated Comics Coming In 2018

2. Gideon Falls

Release Date: March 7

When Andrea Sorrentino first collaborated with Jeff Lemire during the pair's stint on Green Arrow during the New 52, there was little indication that they'd form a partnership years in the making. With Gideon Falls, however, it's clear that the team is here to stay, with the book following on from their past collabs on the aforementioned Emerald Archer and Old Man Logan too.

Revolving around a trash-rummaging conspiracist and a Catholic Priest, Gideon Falls promises to be one of the mysteries of the year, following the pair as they uncover the mystery surrounding the dreaded Black Barn. It looks to be a thriller by any other name, but with Lemire and Sorrentino involved, there are bound to be a bunch of twists, turns and more throughout.

As far as reasons to be excited about Image go, they don't get much better than this one. Given the publisher only seems to keep getting better - boasting a veritable treasure trove of talent all working on their own creator-owned works - the upward trajectory would seemingly intimate Gideon Falls' quality already.
