Super-powered people are inexplicably rising from the streets and there's a big problem: Too many supervillains, not enough superheroes. Heroes are dying, and cops are dying twofold. Humanity is under-powered and good people are suffering untold tragedies trying to stem the flow. Beat cop Leo Winters is one of those struggling to make a difference. And the answer just might come in the form of two lowlifes with a dark secret. Joining Carey is rising artistic star Elena Casagrande (HULK, HACK/SLASH) and cover artists Tommy Lee Edwards (Marvel’s 1985, TURF) and Stephanie Hans (TALES TO ASTONISH). SUICIDE RISK is a high octane, mind-bending series created by one of the industry's greatest storytellers.

SUICIDE RISK #1 second print ships with a must-have all new cover by Garry Brown (INCORRUPTIBLE, THE MASSIVE) with a retail price of $3.99. It will be available for order by retailers in May 13th edition of Previews Plus.
