The deadly game of Exquisite Corpses pits 12 professional killers against one another in the backdrop of a seemingly sleepy, small town. Now, after 12 issues, a winner emerges in May 27's Exquisite Corpses #13 — and what it means for what comes next for Fox Mask Killer, Pretty Boy, and the others. Originally announced as a limited series, James Tynion IV and Michael Walsh's Exquisite Corpses now heads towards a finale of season 1 ahead of several spinoffs and a possible second season.
But first, who wins the the first Exquisite Corpses season?
"Creating Exquisite Corpses with Michael Walsh and the Corpse Crew has been a wild ride, and I'm so excited for fans to read the epic conclusion of the first season," Tynion tells Popverse. "We will finally learn which killer will be the final survivor. But don't worry -- we still have lots of Exquisite Corpses stories on the way with our first limited series launching in July. And our companion card game launches on Kickstarter in just two weeks!"
