BAD RECEPTION to be a Juan Doe One-Man Show at AfterShock Comics
July 25, 2019Creator Juan Doe will make his writing debut at AfterShock Comics in a new limited series titled, Bad Reception, which he will also illustrate.
The series spotlights the celebrity wedding of the century, which is set in a remote and undisclosed location. The site has no reception or WiFi access. The exchange of vows, however, will become a nightmare as, one-by-one, guests are being slaughtered by a serial killer, who brands each victim with a unique hashtag.
“It sets off a scenario where our main characters are all suffering separation anxiety and severe nomophobia — fear of no-mobile-phone — from the start of the wedding,” said Doe. “Throw in a mysterious killer who savagely hunts each guest and brands them with a hashtag and now you’ve got some serious primal fear going on, a return to zero. It’s in this chaos that the story takes shape and we learn if these characters have the Darwinian grit to survive or just fall victim to the hunt.”
Bad Reception #1 will land on bookshelves on August 21.
