Writer Greg Rucka’s comicography reads like a wishlist of every kid who ever dreamed of creating comics. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Punisher, Spider-Man, Wolverine, the man has penned all the main eventers. Lately, Rucka has focused on his creator-owned comic Lazarus. Veil is his latest project. Rucka claims that this concept has been fermenting in his mental brewery for over 20 years. Shit, man, that’s all you had to say!

Veil #1 opens with a bizarre scene in an empty, locked subway filled with rats, pentagrams, money exchanging hands, a gun, and a crazy naked chick with amnesia. It makes no sense. Two pages into the book and my mind was already loaded with a cross-examiner’s list of questions.

Dark Horse Comics has released a 5-page preview of Veil #1, the start of the publisher’s new original 5-issue comic book miniseries by writer Greg Rucka (Queen & Country, Whiteout, Gotham Central) and artist Toni Fejzula (Cthulhu).

Here below you can check out the 5-page preview and official solicitation for the 32-page full-color issue, which is currently available for pre-order, with a release date of March 5, 2014.

Veil #1 introduces us to a new heroine, which if you’re familiar with Rucka’s work, you know he does well. Fejzula provides the interior art, as well as the cover art with some great colors.
