The Dead the Damned could be 2024's theme for the comics industry. For now, it's the title of Goats Flying Press's first release.

I've heard many people say no one buys comic book anthologies. Well, that might not be so true. For several years, DC Comics has had a successful run with its 80-Page Giant seasonal anthologies.
