The INFECTED graphic novel is on hold, indefinitely. Issue #1 is available, but there is no Issue #2 at this time. We were late enough turning in #2 that IDW Publishing decided to put the series on hold until the final four issues of the five-issue series are complete and submitted to them. Only then will they re-solicit the title and get the remaining issues into stores.
We do not have a projected timeline for the completion of the remaining four episodes.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and for not delivering on expectations.
The Diamond product code for the INFECTED comic is MAY120450. If you call your local comic shop to ask for it and they can't find it, give them that Diamond product code.

INFECTED SYNOPSES:
Perry Dawsey is 6-foot-5, 265 pounds of angry ex-linebacker. He knows all too well that if he doesn't control his quick temper, people get hurt. Through constant focus, he has locked his violent past away in the deep dungeons of his mind.
The infection changes everything.
Strange microscopic parasites tap into Perry's bloodstream like tiny little vampires. They start as bright orange blisters, but soon take the shape of triangular growths just beneath his skin. The "Triangles," as Perry calls them, try to control their host by manipulating hormone levels and flooding his body with neurotransmitters -- imbalances of which cause paranoia, schizophrenia and excessive aggression. As Perry begins a desperate battle to cut the Triangles out of his body before it's too late, his self-control dissolves into raging, murderous madness.
