But with the nations of Earth now demanding law and order on the Red Planet, friction continues to build between the people who live on Mars and their former home.”

For All Mankind Season 5 premieres on Apple TV on March 27.

IDW Crime Announcement

IDW Publishing is releasing a new imprint IDW Crime. They’re starting with three limited series. Seven Wives, Killer Influences, and Fixation.

Here’s how they’re described:

• Seven Wives (written by Zoe Tunnell, art by V. Gagnon and Tesslyn Bergin-Dicoi, on sale May 20), a murder thriller set in a Mormon Fundamentalist community in remote Arizona, where the patriarch is found dead. Investigators have to peel through layers of cultish conditioning to figure out which of his seven wives isn’t what she seems.

• Killer Influences (written by Joey Esposito, art by Valeria Burzo, on sale July 1) follows Melvin, a serial killer who enlists Kylie, a struggling true crime podcaster, to boost his brand. Maybe getting this close to a psychopath isn’t the winning career move that Kylie thought it would be.

• Fixation (written by Amy Chase, art by Savanna Mayer, on sale September 9). A weekend on the set of a famous vampire movie franchise becomes a nightmare for a pair of superfans when their trip turns into a bloodbath. This one promises a deep dive into the murderous possibilities of fan culture and toxic addictions.

Each series will start with an oversized 40 page issue. Sideshow will keep you updated about comics.
