SOLOMON KANE VOLUME 1: THE CASTLE OF THE DEVIL TP

Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Writers: Scott Allie
Pencils: Mario Guevara
Covers: Mike Mignola
Colorists: Dave Stewart

Robert E. Howard's vengeance-obsessed puritan begins his supernatural adventures in the haunted Black Forest of Germany in this adaptation of Howard's "The Castle of the Devil." When Solomon Kane stumbles upon the body of a boy hanged from a rickety gallows, he goes after the man responsible -- a baron feared by the peasants from miles around. Something far worse than the devilish baron or the terrible, intelligent wolf that prowls the woods lies hidden in the ruined monastery beneath the baron's castle, where a devil-worshiping priest died in chains centuries ago.

* This team's debut Kane story is available for free at myspace.com/darkhorsepresents.

* "Solomon Kane is one of the toughest Robert E. Howard heroes to adapt to the comics page, but Scott Allie and Mario Guevara have done a stunning job. Unsettling, moody and eerily beautiful, their Kane is absolutely worthy of his creator." -Kurt Busiek

* Collects the Solomon Kane five-issue miniseries.

Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Writers: Mike Kennedy
Pencils: Cliff Richards, Al Rio
Covers: Michael Linsner
Inkers: Ronda Pattison

Rick Ajax ain't got time nor patience for trouble, but trouble seems to make plenty of time for him. If it ain't one thing, it's something else, and those things always seem to need a good old-fashioned pounding to put to rest. Lori Machete, on the other hand, can't help but get into trouble like the proverbial fox in a henhouse. She may be easy on the eyes, but she can be hard on the jaw when the feathers start to fly.

Based on the (not-so) long-running original series and the upcoming video game from Vogster Entertainment, Unbound Saga reintroduces (for the first time) readers to the seedy back alleys of future Toxopolis and the satirical misadventures that follow Rick and Lori like a shadow . . . Rage off the page!

* Written by Mike Kennedy, with stories illustrated by fan favorites Cliff Richards and Al Rio.

* Features a cover by Joseph Michael Linsner and a gallery of (soon-to-be) classic covers by Leinil Yu and Steve Pugh!

Based on the highly anticipated video game!

You’re a boy from the hood. You’re brought up rough in a children’s home, trying to stay out of trouble but usually failing. Then at 18 you decide to track down your mother. Within hours of finding her, she’s lying naked and dead at your feet. So you run to Greek Street.

And that’s when your troubles really begin…

Boasting a cast of sexy strippers, murderous gangsters, body-snatching mad women and a disturbed young girl who can see the future, GREEK STREET is Peter Milligan’s reimagining of those brutal and visceral tragedies that graced the Theater of Dionysus in Ancient Greece – bloody tales about incest, homicide, beautiful oracles, all-knowing choruses, kings, monsters and gods – played out on the mean streets of modern-day Red-Light London.

Milligan – best known for his super-smart Vertigo work like SHADE THE CHANGING MAN, HUMAN TARGET and now HELLBLAZER– joins forces with illustrator Davide Gianfelice (NORTHLANDERS) to create an epic ongoing series that’s both familiar yet completely new and always with the bloody, visceral edge that makes it a Vertigo book. Take a trip to GREEK STREET where the old stories are not through with us yet.

THE BOYS VOLUME 4: WE GOTTA GO NOW TP

Publisher: Dynamite Entertainment
Writers: Garth Ennis
Pencils: Darick Robertson, John Higgins
Covers: Darick Robertson
Colorists: Tony Aviña

Meet the G-Men. Outcasts. Renegades. Rogues. Outsiders. The world's most profitable superheroes.

But all is not well with mysterious millionaire John Godolkin's band of misfits. Silver Kincaid, one of the original G-Men, has just committed suicide in the most public and grotesque way imaginable. That's not good news for Vought-American's number one franchise, with G-Force, G-Coast, G-Style, G-Wiz, the G-Brits and the G-Nomads all depending on their slice of the G-pie. There's far too much at stake for anyone to go poking around the G-Mansion now. Who knows what dirty secrets might be waiting down there in the dark?

So it's just too bad that Butcher, Hughie, Mother's Milk, the Frenchman and the Female have decided to do precisely that. Even it they risk finally biting off much, much more than they can chew...

This TPB collects issues 23-30 (“WE GOTTA GO NOW”) of the acclaimed series and features a complete cover gallery including all of the alternate covers from the run (along with the covers by Darick Robertson): John Cassaday, Howard Chaykin, Garry Leach, David Lloyd, Dave Gibbons, Carlos Ezquerra, Steve Dillon and Jim Lee!
