Kill Shakespeare: A Comic Jab and Literary Punch

Prep your best Shakespearian insults, because this April debuts a new IDW Publishing series with a twist on the old Bard. Introducing Kill Shakespeare, a comic from co-creators Anthony Del Col and Conor McCreery and artist Andy B. (Zuda’s “Bottle of Awesome,” DC’s Wildstorm, Devil’s Due).

Famous tragic, historical, and comedic characters—such as Hamlet, Juliet, Falstaff, Othello, and Puck—race against villainous counterparts like Richard III, Lady Macbeth, and Iago in their hunt to save (or kill) magician William Shakespeare. Described as “a cross between Fables, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and Northlanders,” the comic reimagines Shakespeare’s most notable characters and delivers its weight in action, drama, and blood-drenched violence.
