Dark Horse Comics recently announced, the continuation of artist/writer Soroush Barazesh (aka Koteri Ink aka Roosh)’s beastly series Kings of Nowhere, with a forthcoming volume 2 release on retail shelves. King of Nowhere, Volume 2 looks to bring more of its “high-octane story packed with action, mystery, and dark humor.” The new volume will also contain more than 200 pages with black and white interiors.

Its story… “In the northern city of T’Karanto, rival gang disputes are at an all-time high. A mechanic named Kyoshi and his grandson Dante stay vigilant amid increased crime, but their strength is wavering. A monthly payment to a local gang for protection provides some ease, but the fees keep climbing. When a customer, a beastie, walks in on a violent shakedown, he gives the thugs a swift beating. However, his impulsive actions just put the largest gang target on his back—and it’s the Kiyoshis who are caught in the middle! Dante steps in to protect what life and family he has left, but what can an 11-year-old kid do against ruthless criminals? As bad decisions pile up, with each choice proving worse than the last, tragedy lands in the spotlight as two unlikely characters are brought together.“

The Kings of Nowhere Volume 2 paperback will be available at comic stores on March 15, 2023 and in bookstores March 28, 2023 at a retail for $19.99. Volume 1 is available now
