Shelly Bond’s Black Crown imprint at IDW has added its second title a six-issue limited series from Magdalena’s Tini Howard and Love and Rockets’ Gilbert Hernandez’s Assassinistas. Octavia, the lead character of the series is a retired hit woman who will team with two former associates to rescue a kidnapped child and make some money to pay for her son’s college tuition along the way. Hernandez has worked for Bond before so when she came to him with the script he jumped onto the project. Howard’s script includes flashbacks to the trio’s early day and involves of all things roller disco. It also shows the contrast between the three women who have all gone on different paths. There are no dates on the two different timelines it’s just now and then. The limited series will debut in December.
