Down the bunny trail comes the latest POP KILL #1: SEASONAL FLAVORS!
Mad Cave Studios continues the collectible variant rollout with a springtime twist, bringing that celebrated debut back to print in a limited Easter-themed cover for collectors and longtime fans alike.
Featuring a seductively saccharine cover by Tula Lotay, this full-color collectible issue returns the acclaimed debut of Pop Kill to print. Created and written by Jimmy Palmiotti (Daredevil) and Dave Johnson (100 Bullets), with art by Juan Santacruz (The Incredible Hulk), colors by Brian Reber, and letters by Sean Konot to round out the creative team. Logo by Rian Hughes.
Back in print with a brand-new Seasonal Flavors cover series! This special Easter-themed variant reintroduces the best-selling first issue of POP KILL—the fan-favorite espionage thriller about two cola empires at war. Imagine a world where the dominant soda companies, each worth billions, are owned by former conjoined twins, now bitter rivals who will stop at nothing to destroy each other. Assassins, saboteurs, and spies clash in a tale of brotherly love gone bad, and the dirty work done in their name.
Since its debut, Pop Kill has emerged as one of Mad Cave’s most talked-about creator-owned titles—praised for its razor-sharp satire, fearless storytelling, and unapologetically dark take on corporate power. A breakout hit for the publisher, the series quickly built a loyal readership, with its first issue becoming a best-seller and a go-to recommendation for fans of smart, subversive espionage thrillers.
Pop Kill editor Kristen Simon said, “Jimmy Palmiotti and Dave Johnson set the tone for Pop Kill from page one: fearless, irreverent, and unapologetically fun! This Easter reprint revisits that explosive debut with a beautifully unsettling new cover by Tula Lotay.”
This issue Pop Kill #1: Seasonal Flavors arrives in comic shops on April 1, 2026, with Final Order Cut-off on March 9, 2026.
