The Addiction Creators Vincent Zurzolo and David Quinn proudly announce the July 2024 direct market launch of The Addiction #1, the comic shop premiere of the first chapter of the superhero/crime comic’s first three issue bi-monthly mini-series.
Co-creator/Writer Vincent (Metropolis Comics, ComicConnect.com) Zurzolo explains, “After the huge response at New York Comic Con – where a forty-foot line of fans gathered to buy our limited-edition NYC Premiere – we finished our first three issue story. Starting this July, we will make it available wherever comics are sold. Please pre-order the first issue from your LCS by the end of May so you don’t miss it!”
The Story: A doctor dedicated to treating addiction harbors a strange, dangerous secret power – she can drug you with her touch.
Writer/Co-creator David (Faust, Carnage, Dr. Strange) Quinn adds, “Dr. Niki Tino dared to help recovering addicts – with radical success. She was dosed with a cocktail of drugs by a NYC mafia capo determined ‘to put her out of business.’ The withdrawals, the highs and lows a lifelong addict endures, Niki experienced it all in one night. She died… and was reborn, with stunning new chemical powers. Now, haunted by the trauma of her rebirth, she must master ‘The Touch,’ battling cartel soldiers desperate to steal her blood, the secret of her power!”
Zurzolo and Quinn have assembled an all-star creative team, with Eisner-nominated Illustrator Claudia (Killer Queens) Balboni, Color Artist Brad Simpson, Letterer Dave Sharpe and a legion of fan favorite cover artists including Artgerm, David Mack, Alitha Martinez and rising star Andres Labrada.
