Jessica Harrow is dead. But her journey has only just begun! Discover the world of the afterlife, where Jessica has been recruited as a Reaper, tasked with ferrying countless souls to their final destination. But unlike the rest of the Reapers, she has no memory of what killed her and put her into this predicament. In order to unravel the mystery of her own demise, she’ll have to solve an even bigger one – where is the actual GRIM REAPER?
“We are so excited to have Jessica Harrow join Erica Slaughter and Laila Starr in BOOM! Studios’ now iconic group of dangerous leading ladies,” said Filip Sablik, President, Publishing & Sales, BOOM! Studios. “Readers are dying to read more of the fantastic world Stephanie Phillips and Flaviano have created in GRIM!”
