FREAKANGELS VOL 3 TPB

Readership: MR
Format: Full Color, 144 pages, TPB
ISBN – 1592910785

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Volume Three of award-winning author Warren Ellis’ ongoing web comic, FREAKANGELS, is here! This installment collects the entire third arc of the post-apocalyptic saga into 144 gorgeous, full-color pages. Twenty-three years ago, twelve strange children were born in England at exactly the same moment. Six years later, the world ended. Today, eleven strange 23-year-olds are living in and defending Whitechapel, maybe the last real settlement in flooded London. They’ve made a new friend, and together they successfully defended their home from raiders–but the post-apocalyptic drowned London that the eleven Freakangels survive in is never a safe place, and never surrounded by friends. In FREAKANGELS: VOLUME THREE, the FreakAngels begin to address how to build their community while a serial killer stalks in their midst. Everything almost comes crashing down around them as one of their own breaks their most valued rule. Ellis’ ongoing story of a flooded London is beautifully illustrated in jaw-dropping detail by Paul Duffield, and every page is as much a work of art as it is a compelling and multi-layered story. This third collection is also available as a Hardcover edition with an all-new cover by series artist Paul Duffield that is limited to just 2000 copies, and a Dual Signed Hardcover edition, limited to only 1000 copies, signed by both Warren Ellis and Paul Duffield!

UPC: 820023004966 01011

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: SUPERGOD: praying to be saved by a man who can fly will get you killed. From the creator of THE AUTHORITY and PLANETARY comes the craziest and most horrifying superhero comic you’ve ever read! In the world of SUPERGOD, superhumans are the ultimate expression of the Messiah complex, and scientists can build Messiahs who will fly down from the skies to save the world. No-one thought about how they’d do it — or even if they’d want to. So begins the apocalyptic tomorrow of SUPERGOD — the story of how supermen killed us all and ended the world just because we wanted to be rescued by human-shaped things from beyond Science itself! Take every superhero comic ever published, shove them into a nuclear-powered blender, soak it in bad vodka and set the whole thing alight — and SUPERGOD will crawl out and eat your brain! This five issue color series is drawn by Garrie Gastonny with colors by Digikore. SUPERGOD is available with a Regular cover painted by Felipe Massafera, a Wraparound by series artist Garrie Gastony, and a special retailer incentive Church Of Supergod Edition!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Christos Gage pushes John Dusk to the brink as Absolution kicks into high gear! You know the situation Dick Cheney likes to talk about–the one where you have a criminal in custody, there’s imminent danger to innocent lives, and only your captive has the information needed to save them? John Dusk is in that situation now. Except the perp isn’t in John’s custody, he’s in the NYPD’s. And they don’t torture. If John takes matters into his own hands, with everyone watching… everything changes. He’s always told himself he brutalized criminals to save innocents. But will he NOT torture and kill to save himself, even if it means others die? John always knew there would come a time when he had to choose between his two lives. That time is now. And either way, there’s no going back. He wants to be forgiven… but he doesn’t want to stop. This series explodes into stores with a Regular cover by Jacen Burrows, Wraparound by Juan Jose Ryp and Crime Files Edition (featuring everyone’s favorite cutesy assassin Happy Kitty) by Paul Duffield, as well as a Vigilante Retailer Order Incentive.
