    GRAVEL #0

    Publisher:
    Avatar Press
    Writers: Mike Wolfer, Warren Ellis
    Pencils: Raulo Caceres
    Covers: Mike Wolfer, Raulo Caceres

    "BETWEEN THE WARS"
    It’s never a dull day, being a Magician. The mad mind of Warren Ellis is once again unleashed on combat magician William Gravel, this time on a full-color, on-going monthly series! This special #0 issue is ad-free and the all-new story leads directly into the new series! Magic. The kind of magic that can strip the skin from a screaming man’s skull, or direct the path of a shrieking bullet through a maze of city streets, striking its target between the eyes with pin-point accuracy. This is not just magic… This is Combat Magic, wielded by Sergeant Major William Gravel, Warren Ellis’ cult-hit sensation from the pages of STRANGE KISS and STRANGE KILLINGS, now in his own, ongoing, full-color monthly series! From war-torn Afghanistan to the deceptively mundane streets of London, this special introductory chapter sets the stage for a tale so dark, twisted and disturbing that it could only have sprung from the mind of Ellis. SAS soldier Gravel has returned home, only to find that another has taken his place in the mysterious enclave of Britain’s seven Occult Detectives. Worse, the seven are now in possession of the legendary Sigsand Manuscript, a supernatural device that could bestow its keepers with a most vile and terrifying power. Gravel has a new mission, one that will be filled with his own unflinching brand of horrific and bloody violence. Ellis is joined by co-writer Mike Wolfer and rising start artist Raulo (Crecy) Caceres for the launch of this messy, magical epic! This issue is available with a regular cover by Mike Wolfer, a wraparound by Raulo Caceres, and also a rare 1-in-15 Black Magic Edition featuring a new cover by Wolfer.

    DOCTOR SOLAR, MAN OF THE ATOM VOLUME 4 HC

    Publisher:
    Dark Horse Comics

    After his debut in October of 1962, Doctor Solar swiftly rose to join Magnus, Robot Fighter as one of Gold Key's most popular original heroes. Stunning painted covers sucked in even the most casual comics reader, and the source of Solar's astounding powers--nuclear radiation--addressed one of the biggest fears of the day. While the character has been reinvented in the decades since, his adventures in this archive of Gold Key and Wilson comics completes the body of work that formed his foundation.

    This collection restores and reprints issues twenty-three through thirty-one of the original Doctor Solar comic-book series--the revolutionary science-fiction adventure that gave birth to one of comics' most distinctive and beloved superheroes--for the first time in over forty years. His guest appearance in The Occult Files of Dr. Spektor #14 is also included, making this the biggest Doctor Solar volume of them all!
