Media Release -- BOOM! Studios is proud to announce BY NIGHT #1 in June 2018, kicking off an all-new twelve-issue monthly series from Eisner Award-nominated writer John Allison (Giant Days) and artist Christine Larsen (Adventure Time) about coming home, discovering identity, and accidentally smashing a hole to another dimension.

Aspiring documentarian (and actual chemistry major) Jane has recently reunited with her former best friend Heather, amateur urban explorer. When a trip into an abandoned industrial building leads them to another world, their plan begins to unfold—create a documentary about the world and become filthy, filthy rich. The other side of the portal is filled with monsters, magic and a chance for a whole new life. All they have to do is step through…

"BY NIGHT combines my love of Fringe, the X-Files, Jon Ronson documentaries and long reads about the collapse of post-Industrial western society," said writer John Allison. "It's about going home after college and seeing your home town, and your old friends, through opened eyes. I should also add that it will contain plenty of jokes, dads, mild peril and ludicrous beasts that will almost certainly obscure any lofty intellectual ambitions I might have. And I'm so excited to be working with Christine Larsen on the book, a true star with pencil and pen. Readers are going to love her art."

"John has written a story with everything I like: interesting female protagonists, strange creatures, urban decay, and sharp humor," artist Christine Larsen. "I'm psyched to be on this adventure with him, and hope readers will feel the same."

BY NIGHT #1, featuring a main cover by Christine Larsen and a variant cover by John Allison, is the latest release from BOOM! Studios' critically acclaimed BOOM! Box imprint, home to popular original series such as Lumberjanes by Shannon Watters, Grace Ellis, Brooklyn A. Allen, and Noelle Stevenson; Giant Days by John Allison, Lissa Treiman, and Max Sarin; The Backstagers by James Tynion IV and Rian Sygh; SLAM! by Pamela Ribon, Veronica Fish & Mar Julia; Fence by C.S. Pacat and Johanna The Mad; and Goldie Vance by Hope Larson and Brittney Williams.

"John Allison is one of my favorite writers in any medium, period, and Christine Larsen's art captivated me the moment I saw it for the first time" said Shannon Watters, Editor, BOOM! Studios. "Pairing these two for BY NIGHT was a no-brainer, and I'm jazzed to see what you think of what's already one of my new favorite series."
