Sneak a peek at early pages from the long awaited new chapter of the dark RPG fantasy thriller
Image Comics is pleased to reveal a first look at Die: Loaded—Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans highly anticipated return to the beloved Die series. This brand new chapter will invite fans back to the British Fantasy Award winning, three-time Hugo Award nominated Image Comics series this November.
Alongside this spectacular new issue, will be The Die RPG Quickstart Game Guide, by Gillen and Hans (Lunar Code 0925IM0268)—released simultaneously in November—for fans interested in trying out the Origin Award winning Die RPG in a standalone and inexpensive format. It includes everything needed to play—rules, characters and a multi-session scenario fans need to play. Just add dice, friends, and a desire to get sucked into a game.
A year after the hellish game world events of Die #20, the players reunite in Die: Loaded to gather for Chuck’s wake. They’ve finished with the game. But the game isn’t finished with them. Get ready to roll initiative. Who’s going to DIE this time?
Over the course of its original run, Die topped Image Comics’ sales charts, with multiple distributor-level sellouts and strong reorder activity fueling its rise. Often described as “goth Jumanji,” the series has gained a cult following since its 2019 debut and helped spark a wave of RPG-inspired storytelling.
This year, eagle-eyed fans caught a glimpse of new art from the series’ Die: Loaded return story arc displayed prominently on the Image Comics booth wrap at San Diego Comic-Con.
