Necrologue was originally solicited for 2014 as a five-issue series, however the story changed substantially in the writing process. Francavilla has mentioned the possibility of it becoming a longer story than he previously envisioned. As of 2019, Francavilla maintains that he is still working on the miniseries, but there is nothing yet on Dark Horse Comics' schedule.
