Daniel Warren Johnson's Chainkata is approaching its November launch with 116 retailer-exclusive covers, Image Comics announced on October 16. The publisher has revealed the first eleven, giving readers an early look at the range of artwork supporting the new series. Chainkata follows Luma, a chainsaw-wielding warrior
queen searching the depths of space for an unknown power. She wants peace, but violence follows her from one encounter to the next. Johnson is both writer and artist on the science-fiction adventure. The retailer programme includes artwork from creators such as Riley Rossmo, Rob Liefeld, Skottie Young and Farel
Dalrymple. Those shop-specific editions sit alongside the standard and incentive covers listed by Image. Chainkata #1 reaches comic shops on November 18, with a digital edition also planned. Readers seeking a particular retailer cover will need to check the relevant shop's availability. Read the official announcement.
