    PREDATOR OMNIBUS VOLUME 3 TP

    Publisher:
    Dark Horse Comics
    By: Various

    Death often hides in the dark, isolated corners of the earth-in thick woods, steaming swamps, or angry seas. These natural dangers of animal, weather, and terrain often give rise to legends and folk tales of demons, serpents, and ghosts to put an understandable face to the unknown. And while many myths have a basis in reality, some are reality, the reality of the presence of Predators: alien hunters as savage as they are intelligent, as cunning as they are merciless. And when rational men stand face to face with a sea serpent, a Gollywomp, or the New Jersey Devil bent on taking trophies, they have but two choices-fight the myth or become history!

    * Value-priced, quality package featuring over three hundred story pages, many never before collected.

    * Featuring work by top comics creators, including Eisner Award winners Evan Dorkin and Mark Schultz and legendary artist Gene Colan.

    The second phase of the war that began in "Messiah Complex" continues! There’s nothing better than catching up with an old war buddy, especially after the years have really started to pile up. You can rummage through the bad old days, revel in the glory days, and down quite a few beers on the back porch while the sun slips down over the horizon. But not so for Cable. Because his old war buddy has shown up with news that everyone he knows or cares about is dead. The battles are over, and they’re the only ones left on the losing side. If that weren’t enough, Bishop, their former ally, is just one bullet away from achieving his objective: killing the baby, and erasing the last shred of hope for mutantkind. All of the battles Cable has won mean nothing. Because suddenly, all of these years later, he’s in real danger of losing the war.

    TRINITY #1 (of 52)

    Publisher:
    DC Comics
    Writers: Kurt Busiek, Fabian Nicieza
    Pencils: Mark Bagley, Art Thibert, Scott McDaniel, Andy Owens, Tom Derenick, Wayne Faucher, Mike Norton, Jerry Ordway
    Covers: Carlos Pacheco


    DC's new weekly series TRINITY explodes in an extra-sized debut issue featuring art by fan-favorite Mark Bagley (Ultimate Spider-Man) and Art Thibert with lead stories and dialogue by Kurt Busiek (SUPERMAN, ASTRO CITY)!

    The lead feature explores the unusual bond — and importance — of DC's top three characters, Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, as a mysterious dream links them together and may prophesy important changes in their trinity!

    Plus, a co-feature in issue #1 explores the mysterious connection between several villains who are watching the Trinity —as well as the near future for these characters and their surrounding world! Co-features in issues #2-4 fill in back-story on some of the other important players in this major storyline. These stories are written by Busiek and Fabian Nicieza with art by Scott McDaniel and Andy Owens (NIGHTWING, GREEN ARROW), Tom Derenick and Wayne Faucher and Mike Norton and Jerry Ordway (ALL-NEW ATOM, INFINITE CRISIS).

    Hey all!

    Just wanted to let everyone know that Newsarama redesigned their website last night so previews that use Newsarama as its source no longer work... except for DCs Trinity #1.

    I've changed some previews over to other sources from 'rama but the rest of the DC, most of the IDW ones and 1 Image preview no longer work. Few other previews have mixed sources but those have a small amount of Newarama links.

    Just check the updated contents on the 1st post.
