THE CUTTER SP ED

(W) Warren Ellis (A) Jacen Burrows (CA) FELIPE MASSAFERA

Dancing amid the spires of a city called New Ataraxia, there is a woman who can cloud men's minds, leap across buildings as if weightless, unerringly fire twin automatic pistols in the most insane conditions, and disappear in a crowded room. She fights against the political repression of an insane technocratic society, and she comes from a place that no-one in New Ataraxia has ever heard of. And she's got one hour to save the city from itself!

DOKTOR SLEEPLESS TP #1

ENGINES OF DESIRE SP ED

(W) Warren Ellis (A) Ivan Rodriguez (CA) FELIPE MASSAFERA

Warren Ellis' satirical-political science fiction novel begins with a simple question: Where is the Future We Were Promised? But the man asking the question is not going to be content until he's taken apart the very city of Heavenside to find the answer! Doktor Sleepless and his sultry and murderous Nurse are broadcasting non-stop intrigue to a city populated with beautiful Shrieky Girls, angry Grinders, corrupt police, and the Doktor's old flame Sing Watson, perhaps the only person who really knows how dangerous things are about to get. You may not have your jetpack, but the good Doktor has just the prescription you've been looking for!

GEORGE RR MARTIN FEVRE DREAM TP SP ED

(W) Daniel Abraham (A) Rafa Lopez (CA) FELIPE MASSAFERA

From George R.R. Martin, author of the New York Times best-selling novel series A Song of Ice and Fire, comes a moonlit tale of feuding vampire clans, death, and debauchery in the bayou! Set in 1857 along the muddy Mississippi, FEVRE DREAM introduces Abner Marsh, a remarkably ugly man who longs to captain the fastest steamboat on the river. When a pale, mysterious gentleman named Joshua - who keeps strange hours and stranger friends - approaches him with an offer of partnership, Abner's dreams appear to come true... though he may have unleashed a nightmare on the unsuspecting shores! Adapted by Hugo-nominated author Daniel Abraham and artist Rafa Lopez, this graphic novel stays faithful to Martin's original dark vision, immersing the reader in the tortures and joys of vampire society. Available in softcover and hardcover formats, with illustrated covers by FELIPE MASSAFERA (Alan Moore's LIGHT OF THY COUNTENANCE).

WOLFSKIN TP SP ED #1

(W) Warren Ellis (A) Gianluca Pagliarani (CA) FELIPE MASSAFERA

Before history was recorded in stone and ink, some men wrote it in blood! Warren Ellis' barbarian epic is finally collected, just in time for the new series coming late 2009! From the time before history began, in the time when the continents were still connected by land, from the harsh climes at the top of the world, a Northish soldier wrapped in a cape of wolfpelts walks south, into the forests of the High Midlands that are now Europe, to find a village cut in two by travelers from the East. Soon, he too is torn - between duty to the lives he has ruined just by finding them, and duty to the hideous murder-god of the Northish wastes and the berserker drugs that are his sacrament... Warren Ellis cuts loose to unleash his take on the genre fans demanded he assault with full color art from Juan Jose Ryp and Gianluca Pagliarani! Wolfskin fuses heroic fantasy in the mode of Conan, the Viking sagas, and samurai fiction into a single story of weird history and apocalyptic violence.  This first volume collects the original 3-issue series with art by Ryp, Annual #1 with art by Pagliarani, and a huge cover gallery all wrapped in a stunning new painted cover by FELIPE MASSAFERA!
