The Horrible Truth is Revealed in Your First Look at EAT THE RICH #5   

Discover a Proposal Too Terrible to Refuse in the Final Issue this December 2021

BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at EAT THE RICH #5, the final issue issue in a chilling new original five-issue comic book series from Hugo Award-winning author Sarah Gailey (The Echo Wife, Magic For Liars) with artist Pius Bak (Firefly, The Magicians), colorist Roman Titov, and letterer Cardinal Rae, about the unspeakable horrors lying in wait behind the idyllic lives of the one percent, available in December 2021.

‘TIL DEATH DO US PART! Astor finally proposes but the cost of marrying into the 1% is too terrible for Joey to even contemplate. Too bad saying no isn’t an option if she wants to get out of Crestfall Bluffs in one piece! With the horrible truth fully revealed, can Joey escape a proposal much too rich for her blood, or will she get eaten alive by the secrets of the rich and powerful?

EAT THE RICH #5 features main and variant cover art by famed illustrator Kevin Tong, and variant covers by acclaimed artists Becca Carey (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), and Jenn Woodall (Sleeping Beauties).
