Legendary writer Scott Snyder presents DARK SPACES—a thrilling new anthology series exploring our deepest fears of the unknown, beginning in the smoldering hills of California in DARK SPACES: WILDFIRE!

Six weeks into the slow burn of the historic Arroyo Fire, a crew of women from an inmate firefighting program are risking everything on the frontlines when their newest recruit—a white-collar convict with a deep network of shady dealers—discovers they’re mere miles from her crooked former associate’s abandoned mansion. When she proposes a plan to abandon their duties and hunt for riches under cover of smoke and ash, the team must decide if they’re ready to jeopardize their one sure path back to normalcy for a shot at a score that would truly change their lives...but is this a flicker of fortune, or a deadly trap?

Scott Snyder and breakout artist Hayden Sherman craft an unforgettable heist for a new age in DARK SPACES: WILDFIRE, a collection of the five-issue debut of Scott Snyder’s DARK SPACES anthology!
“Dark Space: Wildfire #1 is one of Snyder’s slowest, yet strongest debuts. The cast is invigorating, the premise hooks, and the aesthetics are gorgeous. Anyone interested in heist or prison-break stories will want to check this one out.” –Sequential Planet

“Snyder, Sherman and Pattison do a stellar job of gradually ramping up the tension of what promises to be a thrilling pressure cooker of a heist that I simply can’t recommend highly enough.” –BCP

“Snyder proves once again why he is one of the top writers in the medium. Pacing, character development, and intrigue drip from the pages.” –Nerd Night News

“Hayden’s alluring artwork and style lights up the pages with the vibrant use of colors…Paired with Snyder’s dramatic and compelling storytelling you are definitely going to love this book, as this first issue instantly gives readers an intriguing original story.” –Gotham Geek Girl

“With pun very much intended, I can safely say that this is the hottest original comic series you’ll see this summer.” –Kabooooom!

“Not only does Sherman relish adding eye-catching details, he has nailed it in bringing to life this troubled crew of tough people who, whether they realized it or not, are all just waiting to blow everything up.” –Comics Grinder

“Snyder is a masterful storyteller and here his skills shine through…Sherman captures the vast and dangerous majestic scale of the wildfires alongside the more personal and smaller human moments too.” –Comicon.com

“It’s brilliant.” –Lauren Beukes, author of The Shining Girls and Broken Monsters
