After a wild, drunken party, 19-year-old Kacy wakes up in an alternate universe—one where she has been dead for thirteen years.

And she must do so while wielding newly-discovered terrifying abilities against alien horrors.

Written by Rob Hart and Alex Segura
Art by Joe Eisma
Release Date: February 20th in bookstores, February 21st in comic shops
It’s 1922 in New York. The peak of Prohibition. Hazel Crenshaw just wants to be left alone, to tend to her farm, to care for her younger sister, and to run her business. But her business is inescapably tangled up with the New York gangs that will eventually coalesce into the mafia, and a new, unknown partner. When the Crenshaw farm is attacked, Hazel must not only defend her home, she must cope with the realization that her flirtation with the other side of the law might also put her in the crosshairs of something else—something much more sinister…
New America Vol. 1
Written by Curt Pires
