Carlson and Del Rey’s Hit: 1957 arrives March 25th from BOOM

This March, BOOM! Studios debuts Bryce Carlson and Vanesa R. Del Rey’s Hit: 1957, a sequel to the Harvey Award-nominated miniseries Hit: 1955.

Two years after the events of Hit: 1955, the LAPD seems to have regained control, but the fight for Los Angeles still rages under the surface of the quiet city streets.  The hit squad keeps killing, Bonnie Brae is missing, the IA is hounding Detective Harvey Slater, and now Mickey Cohen is released from prison.

“Hit: 1955 took us deep into the gritty past of the City of Angels, and we couldn’t wait for Bryce and Vanesa to continue the story of their clandestine LAPD hit squad,” said BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Matt Gagnon. “Vanesa’s artwork is stunning, Bryce’s noir-infused writing is sharp, and the stakes are even higher as we find Harvey Slater and ompany in 1957. We can’t wait for you to join us for another Hit!”

You can preorder Hit: 1957 until March 2nd, and it arrives in comic shops on March 25th for 3.99 with a cover by Del Rey (Diamond code JAN151099) and a variant by Terry Dodson (DEC148680).  Limited quantities exist of a 10 Years Anniversary incentive cover by Trevor Hairsine and a retailer incentive cover by Dustin Nguyen.
