7 Psychopaths debuts

Typically, I wouldn't recommend you be anywhere near a gathering of more than one psychopath. I mean, one is enough to actually make you fear for your life and worry that he or she will cause serious harm to others. Recommending you expose yourself to SEVEN psychopaths at one time would be even worse advice, unless those seven psychopaths are uniting to assassinate Hitler. Coming this May from Boom! Studios is 7 Psychopaths written by Fabien Vehlmann and with art by Sean Phillips. World War II is in full swing and the only way to end the war is to kill Hitler. The problem is finding someone crazy enough to try, and one person knows where to find not only one of these individuals but seven. "7 PSYCHOPATHS is probably the most difficult story I've ever drawn,” said 7 PSYCHOPATHS artist Sean Phillips. “Nine or ten panel pages, having to find reference for everything I had to draw, drawing a type of story I'd never tackled before, it was hard work. Many times I wondered if it was worth the effort. Then I started to receive jpegs of Hubert's coloured pages, and it was definitely worth it. He's made it look like a book drawn by someone who knew what he was doing! It seemed as if I could do Fabien's great story justice after all." 7 Psychopaths #1 hits shelves in May and will set you back $3.99. Yeah, the plot does sound like Inglorious Basterds, but I'm sure this book was in the works concurrently with the film. Full press release after the jump. BOOM!
