28 Days Later #21 On Shelves Today!

The final arc begins here!  Clint and Selena have finally made it to London after all this time.  Which means we’re in for 4 issues of happy denouement as the world rights itself and everyone lives happily ever after.  Because those are the kinds of stories I write.  Honestly.  Why are you laughing?

Below is a preview of the issue to give you a taste of what’s coming.  This arc takes place concurrently with the events of 28 Weeks Later, so if you’ve seen the film, you know that a happy ending is just right around the corner.  No, seriously, stop laughing.

Much Goings On Today

There are a few things of mine hitting bookshelves today.  First off is the first issue of Insurrection V3.6 that I’m writing with Blake Master.  Hit the link for a preview.

Also coming out is the trade paperback of The Calling: Cthulhu Chronicles that I wrote with the wonderfully talented Johanna Stokes.  My only complaint about this series is that it was cut short.  We had intended it to be an ongoing (you can tell by all the seeds we planted in the first couple of issues), but it ended up running for only four.  I thought we wrapped it up pretty well, but if you think it reads bigger than a four issue mini, that’s why.

Like westerns?  Gruff cowboys who hold nothing back?  Tales of Frontier Justice?  Then Pale Horse is for you. 

And as an added bonus, here’s a nice review of the second trade papeback of 28 Days Later: Bend in the Road.  I’m still adjusting to having finished writing the series (there are four more issues left to publish, but all the writing is complete).  If you haven’t been reading it, the first trade is only 10 bucks.  So go, buy (Amazon link here), read, and enjoy!

And since I’m pimping, don’t forget that DINGO and HEXED are available as well. 

HEXED Released in Trade Paperback

 

I’ve written well over a dozen different titles and close to a hundred single issues of comics since I started way back in 2005, from my very first series Second Wave to the current 28 Days Later.   And though I am terribly proud of all the work I have done, there are two titles that stand out as my favorites: DINGO and HEXED. 

Not only is HEXED one of my personal favorite stories, but I am just in love with the way it looks.  Emma Rios and Cris Peter did a stellar job with the art and the Paul Pope cover is one of the best to ever grace one of my books (and I’ve had many amazing covers).  Just take a gander at the pages below and you’ll see what I’m talking about. 

HEXED is the story of a young woman named Lucifer who makes her living as a thief in a magical and mystical underworld, stealing bad things from bad people.  Her pilfering hand is guided by her benefactor, Val, the curator of a prestigious art gallery and collector of things both dangerous and fantastical.  In HEXED, Lucifer finds herself caught between a rock and a hard place when an old “employer” comes looking to rehire her. 

You can find copies of HEXED at your local comics shop, bookstore, or online.  Go and give it a read.  I promise you won’t be disappointed.
