Sam Sarkar is proud to announce that the first printing of the deep sea, horror masterpiece, THE VAULT #1, has sold out at the distributor level, with very few copies remaining at a select number of comic stores across the country. Hurry while you can and pick up a copy before it’s gone! For members of Comixology, THE VAULT #1 will be available, in a digital format, on Wednesday, August 10th.


Published by Image Comics, written by Sarkar and illustrated by the immensely talented Garrie Gastonny (Warren Ellis’ Supergod), THE VAULT is about a small team of treasure hunters, struggling to excavate a dangerous and legendary treasure pit before a massive storm hits Sable Island, the "Graveyard of the North Atlantic." Equipped with all the latest technology, the scientists believe they are prepared against all of nature's fury, but nothing can prepare them for what they are about to unleash.
