Image Comics Rushes To Reprint "I WAS A FASHION SCHOOL SERIAL KILLER" Due To Popular Demand!
Pun intended, but Image Comics has been killing it lately! Last week we announced that “You’ll Do Bad Things,” their giallo-inspired slasher series was getting a first-issue reprint due to high demand and sold out stores (see our coverage and interview here). Now we are getting word that “I Was A Fashion School Serial Killer” is getting the same treatment!
The comic comes from the minds of “Plastic” creators writer Doug Wagner and artist Daniel Hillyard, and blends the pettiness of the fashion industry with the brutality of horror in colorful and killer ways! Check out some of the preview pages provided by Image below, as well as some more information about the re-release and how to secure your copy when it hits retail and digital storefronts on Wednesday, May 7, 2025 as well as the release schedule for the rest of the series!
From The Press Release
Readers are bursting at the seams with enthusiasm for the campy new horror series I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer—by fan-favorite Plastic creators writer Doug Wagner and artist Daniel Hillyard—and the debut issue has sold out completely at the distributor level. Image Comics will fast-track the I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer #1 for reprint this week in order to keep up with escalating demand.
"I’m blown away by the response to I Was A Fashion School Serial Killer—huge thanks to everyone who's joined us on this weird, wild, and murderously stylish journey and making #1 a sell-out," said Wagner. "We’re beyond thrilled to be heading to a second printing."
Hillyard added: "Thank you so much to everyone joining us on this mad murderous catwalk! I’m here scratching my head for a different way of saying that I’m blown away, but there is no other way, I am truly blown away! You all rock!!"
In I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer, Rennie Bethary has just been accepted into New York City’s most prestigious fashion school. Her designs are daring, edgy, and singular…and made of human flesh. Did we forget to mention Rennie is a serial killer who simply wants to be a fashion designer instead? Stupid, pesky, murderous urges!
