Zenescope Announces Hit List, A New Crime Comic From Ralph Tedesco

Indie comics publisher Zenescope announced today the launch of Hit List, a new crime series written by Zenescope co-founder and Editor-in-Chief Ralph Tedesco and set to debut in October. The publisher describes the series as a departure from the mostly supernatural and horror fare Tedesco has co-created with writing partner and Zenescope President, Joe Brusha. Hit List revolves around an underground crew of professional killers funded by a wealthy entrepreneur. In the first series arc, the collection of assassins attempts to methodically take out members of a dangerous white supremacist gang that deals in human trafficking. "The story follows an ensemble of very different characters who happen to be paid killers. What if there was someone rich and ballsy enough to put together such a crew because idealistically he wants to make the world safer? I thought it would be fun to explore what could happen and, more importantly, what could go wrong." said Tedesco "The story is very fast-paced and the action is in-your-face violent. There's very little downtime in this series which will be a blast for readers." Hit List will get its first big push at next month's San Diego Comic Con International, with a campaign that will allow convention-goers a chance to win prizes at Zenescope Booth #2301 while participating in an interactive experience taking place on the convention floor throughout Comic Con weekend.
