Image Comics Press Release: Moriarty Half-Off at comiXology
IMAGE COMICS SERIES MORIARTY HALF-OFF AT COMIXOLOGY THIS WEEKEND
Sale coincides with US premier of season two of BBC's Sherlock
To coincide with the U.S. premier of the second season of the BBC series Sherlock, Image Comics is partnering with comiXology to offer a special half-off sale this weekend, May 19th and 20th, on all issues and trade collections of MORIARTY. Fans of all things Holmsian can keep the excitement going with digital issues of MORIARTY: THE DARK CHAMBER and MORIARTY: THE LAZARUS TREE on their iPad, iPhone or Android.
Written by Daniel Corey and illustrated by Anthony Diecidue, MORIARTY is an exciting science fiction adventure series from Image Comics that follows the misdeeds of the original supervillain, Professor James Moriarty, arch-nemesis of Sherlock Holmes. From the grimy streets of London to the haunting British countryside, underground lairs and superscience labs, Professor Moriarty must forge his way through a world without Sherlock.
"Ever since MORIARTY has gone digital, the comiXology guys have been really great to us," said creator and writer Corey. "Over the course of a few interviews, we came up with the idea of a half-off digital sale that celebrates the U.S. release of Sherlock season two. I love Moffat and Gatiss' Sherlock series, and I am a huge fan of Andrew Scott as Jim Moriarty."
