Army of Darkness Forever is an upcoming comic book miniseries by Dynamite Entertainment set for release in October, 2023. Written by Tony Fleecs and illustrated by Justin Greenwood, the comic celebrates the 30th anniversary of the United States release of the Army of Darkness film.
Plot Synopsis[]
After it debuted in 1992, the classic Sam Raimi film Army of Darkness quickly became the most beloved movie of the popular Evil Dead franchise. And with the launch of their Army of Darkness comics in 2005, Dynamite set a new standard for the indefatigable Ash Williams's adventures in any medium! Now, after nearly three decades of Ash-tastic action, Dynamite is upping the ante with the ultimate AOD comic book series: Army of Darkness... FOREVER!
Picking up immediately after the events of Army of Darkness (the Director's Cut, natch), Ash chainsaws his way through the Techno Army of Darkness in 2093 and defends the sacred aisles of the S-Mart in 1993! (What? How!?) Meanwhile, in the distant past, his lady love Sheila fights off a rising evil at Castle Kandar!
Written and illustrated by comics heavyweights TONY FLEECS and JUSTIN GREENWOOD, Army of Darkness Forever features incredible covers by some of the medium's greatest masters of horror, including series writer/mastermind TONY FLEECS, artist NICK DRAGOTTA (East of West), the zombie king himself, ARTHUR SUYDAM, and master painter FRANCESCO MATTINA!

Trivia[]
- Issue one's "Icon" cover uses Michael Hussar's artwork for the North American Army of Darkness theatrical poster.
- The "Icon" cover concept was previously used in the Death To The Army of Darkness series in 2020.
- In issue one, Ash's recap of the events in 1300 AD concludes with him stating "So I left her there" (referring to Sheila as he went off to return to his time). This line of dialogue originates from the "Television Cut" of the Army of Darkness film.
- In issue two, the Ash of 1993 is mistakenly drawn with two real hands (instead of having the metal gauntlet).
