After the massive twist cliffhanger at the end of Oni Press‘ Skin Police, you know they were coming back for more. And as Comic Book Club can exclusively reveal, writer Jordan Thomas and artist Daniel Gete are indeed headed back to the future for Skin Police 2, which will hit stores in September.
The series is set in a world where “Dupes” are cloned from people’s skin — but the populace has been told that those Dupes can “pop” any moment… Meaning they’ll go insane and on a killing spree. Enter what the public calls the Skin Police, elite agents who are sent in to take down Dupes before they pop. The only thing, as readers of the first series know, the Dupes aren’t as deadly as believed. And an underground resistance is building that may have shocking, jaw-dropping ties back to the Skin Police itself.
“We spent the first four issues presenting a character in Eckis who is sure of himself and certain of the need for the violent and deadly acts he commits and then slowly chipping away at that,” said Thomas via a press release provided to Comic Book Club. “In this second volume we’re going to take dynamite to the whole belief system Eckis has built himself around and present him and our other major characters with some incredibly tough choices with stakes that couldn’t be any higher. This will definitely be psychological in a lot of ways, but like with our first arc, this second set of four issues is going to also be packed with incredible action brought to life by my co-author Daniel Gete, one of the best visceral artists in comics right now.”
Added Gete, “Skin Police Volume 1 was one of the best experiences I’ve had drawing comics. We did a lot of heavy-lifting and world building in those four issues, but Jordan managed to do so while keeping it fun and action packed. So with all those pieces already on the table, Volume 2 is going to be insane! Expect even more world building, but also crazy action scenes inside giant iguanas, incredibly tense coffee breaks and the saddest opening scene since Up!”
