AFTERSHOCK Update: WE LIVE Is Back For Seconds

NOVEMBER 17, 2020

Thanks to you, last month’s debut of the Miranda Brothers’ WE LIVE was one of the most successful series launches in AfterShock history – and a 100% sell out everywhere! Here’s what some of the critics had to say: “We Live #1 is the best debut I've read this year. I can find no faults and it had me bawling. It’s an entertaining story, an engrossing world, and full of emotions. This is a comic that should be on everyone’s pull list.” – Brett Schenker, Graphic Policy “We Live delivers a one of a kind story full of intrigue, heart, and emotion that you don’t want to miss, and if you read one comic this week it needs to be this one.” – Matthew Aguilar, ComicBook.com “...a story full of action, emotion, and unfettered creativity. This is an undisputed work of art.” – Kobi Bordoley, Multiversity Comics “Another impressive offering from AfterShock Comics...Taking a look at the end of the world through the innocent eyes of a child, We Live provides a fresh take on the post-apocalyptic genre, and as such is an easy series to recommend.” – Craig Neilson-Adams, Big Comic Page So, today, not only are we excited to remind you that WE LIVE #2 will be arriving at comic shops tomorrow, but it’ll be doing so in the delightful company of a 2nd Printingof WE LIVE #1!
