SPECS #2 First Look

Frightening Consequences in Your First Look at SPECS #2

Discover How Wishful Thinking Can Be Fatal in the Series from Acclaimed Creators in December 2022

BOOM! Studios revealed today a first look at SPECS #2, the second issue of the mysterious new series from highly acclaimed writer David M. Booher (Canto, All-New Firefly), artist Chris Shehan (House of Slaughter), colorist Roman Stevens (Batman Fortnite), and Jim Campbell (Giant Days), about a group of misfit teens who mail-order a pair of novelty glasses, and realize they’ve received much more than they bargained for, in stores December 2022.  

Given their unwillingness to acknowledge the dangerous consequences of their recent wish, what does this mean for their victim, and what do they do with the glasses moving forward? Kenny fears that all of this may affect his and Ted’s relationship… and wonders if they’ll truly remain just “friends.” 

SPECS #2 features main cover art by highly acclaimed artist Skylar Patridge (Trial of the Amazons), and variant cover by fan-favorite illustrator David Talaski (Nightwing).
