THE BUNKER, written by Josh Fialkov and art by Joe Infurnari, is the story of a group of friends who discover letters from their future selves stating that the world is coming to an end. These characters struggle with knowing the future and whether or not they think they have the power to change it. This intriguing and emotional tale has had a fantastic run on Comixology with their first four chapters, and now, THE BUNKER is moving into the world of physical comics.

It was announced today that Oni Press will be printing out this series starting in February of 2014.

“This book has been a passion project for Joe and I from the start, and we took the decision of a publishing partner extremely seriously,” says writer Joshua Hale Fialkov, best known for his Eisner-nominated graphic novel Tumor as well as work on The Ultimates, and I, Vampire. “We had such a great experience doing it on our own, with ComiXology’s support, that we wanted to continue that journey. In Oni Press, we’ve found a group of the hardest working folk in comics, who want our vision delivered to as big an audience as possible. We could not be happier.”

The first issue will collect the digital chapters #1-5. It will be 48 pages and will cost $3.99.

In addition to collecting it all the chapters in one issue, Infurnari will also be enhancing some of the color while remastering the books to fit in this format. Once again, printed copies will be at your LCS in February 2014.
