In the wake of what is now the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history last October, Image Comics has announced a bumper anthology of comics about the trauma of gun violence in America – and with it, contributors from some of the biggest artists and writers in the comics industry including Gail Simone, Neil Gaiman and Kelly Sue DeConnick.

Where We Live, spearheaded by JH Williams III, Wendy Wright-Williams, Will Dennis and Eric Stephenson, will feature 70+ stories from dozens upon dozens of different creative teams, all reflecting on the current debate about gun violence and legislative reform in America (which, in a grim observation, has already moved on from October 2017’s shooting in Las Vegas to the recent massacre of school students in Parkland, Florida, that spurred this past weekend’s March For Our Lives).
