Artist Nick Roche has shared his IDW Requiem Of The Wreckers Full Color Cover for our viewing pleasure.
The cover was shared via Nick Roche’s Twitter, and it is an astonishing art indeed, with Verity Carlo and Kup in the center of the clash between Springer and Impactor. You may notice a mysterious face on the background and a small spider…. Tarantulas?
This title was previously announced via Nick Roche’s Twitter, too. Written and drawn by Nick Roche himself, colored by Josh Burcham, and guest artists Guido Guidi and Geoff Senior. We are sure everybody is excited about the third IDW Wreckers title, but this time this isn’t a new mini-series, it’s a double-length one-shot issue. This title is scheduled for release on May 2018.
You can see this awesome cover after the jump, and then sound off at the 2005 Boards!

Man, feels good to be excited for an IDW comic again. No GI Joe's or Red Dwarf shit in this comic!

Nick also said this regarding Kup.
“It helped me if anything. It was Carlos' suggestion to have that be an impetus, so Kup being a macguffin AND off the table streamlined the book. On my kids' life, I was done with Kup. I didn't expect to use him again, so wrapped up the Prowl stuff and said goodbye.”

The Annuals and One-Shots like Redemption and Salvation are bound like TPBs, should be all good in terms of robustness.

Well, that answers that. And he even worked into a catalyst for the story.
Some good did come out of Kup’s Death.

IDW's website says it's only 48 pages, so I don't think they'd need to bind it like a Dectective Comics #700 situation. That does make the 8 dollar price tag seem a tad extreme though.

Pretty gosh darn hyped for this one! For now I'm going to assume Overlord and Tarantulas being on the cover is as a sort of "Springer and Impactor's history looms over them" type of thing, and that they don't show up in the story outside of flashbacks. I'll be happy to be proven wrong though, more Roche Tarantulas would be fucking glorious, still can't get over how brilliantly he wrote that spidery creep in Sins.
Requiem does indeed takes place post-Kup's death.

Wait, so this is a comic, and not just a text story? Color me interested, then.
