Jay Martin Returns to Dark Horse with ‘Yellow’

Dark Horse announced in a press release that multi-talented creator Jay Martin will return to the publisher with the new graphic novel YELLOW. The story is described as a look at humanity in a war-torn future American society. Martin will write, draw, and color the book with Frank Cvetkovic providing lettering. Yellow will arrive on shelves in hardcover format on May 14, 2024.

The publisher shared a brief synopsis on the new graphic novel:

Set in an alternate future amid a Second Civil War, wounded infantryman Nick Carson flees the battlefield and escapes across the wasteland of war-torn America. Branded a coward and marked for death, Nick’s only hope is to get to the other side. His route takes him through a strange, ravaged country where power plants lay destroyed and once great cities have gone dark–an America at war with itself.

Yellow explores what happens when society falls apart, when there is no law and order. Do we fall to our basic instincts, or can we rise above? As Nick travels, he encounters both good and evil and must choose which path he will follow.
