The new series, entitled Bad Rap, will bring back the creative team of <font color=yellow>Max Allan Collins</font>, <font color=yellow>Gabriel Rodriguez</font> and <font color=yellow>Ashley Wood</font>, according to the press release at Comic Book Resources.
Bad Rap will send the CSI team in search of the murderer of a famous gangsta rapper. Each of the five comic books in the series will sell for $3.99.
"Involving Gil Grissom and his criminalists in the world of gangsta rap is just the latest brilliant idea from the mind of one of our best crime writers," said IDW's Editor-in-Chief, <font color=yellow>Jeff Mariotte</font>.
The initial five-issue CSI comic will be collected in a 144-page trade paperback in full color with a new introduction by TV series creator <font color=yellow>Anthony E. Zuiker</font>. The book will also include a brand new short story by Collins and Woods.
"The original CSI miniseries had a mushroom effect with sales," said <font color=yellow>Beau Smith</font> of IDW. "The new trade paperback will enlarge the reader base even more."
