BOOM! Studios will publish the first collected edition of the new series House of Slaughter, by writers James Tynion IV and Tate Brombal and artists Werther Dell’Edera and Chris Sheehan, as a limited edition that will be exclusive to comic shops. House of Slaughter: Discover Now Edition will collect the first five issues of the series, which constitute the first story arc, and will be available on April 13, 2022, just two months after the fifth issue comes out. The direct market TPB will feature a cover by Werther Dell’Edera and will be limited to a single printing; the MSRP will be $14.99. A trade collection will be released in bookstores on June 21, 2022.
House of Slaughter is a spinoff of Tynion and Dell’Edera’s best-selling Something Is Killing the Children (see “BOOM! to Publish Spinoff”). The lead character in House of Slaughter is Aaron Slaughter, and the story focuses on his teenage years, when he was training to become a monster hunter with the Order. The series debuted in October, and the first issue had orders for over 460,000 copies (see “McFarlane, BOOM! Announce New Mid-Six-Figure Launches”).
