After Dark
Acclaimed director Antoine Fuqua (Brooklyn's Finest, Training Day), superstar actor Wesley Snipes (Blade) and award-winning writer Peter Milligan (X-Statix, Skreemer) debut their upcoming dark science fiction miniseries with a $1.00 introductory book. An amoral drifter guides a gang of damaged souls into the dark places of the ruined planet, and the even darker places of their own pasts. They journey in search of a woman who may be the key to saving the world, if the world is not already past saving. The question still looms if the people who still inhabit this world are even worth saving. After Dark is a story of hidden demons and unleashed devils set in a future that could very well be ours.
Bastard
After taking part in a historic heist — 52 simultaneous robberies at the same time, in the same city — May and Eugene are now on the run not only from the law and double-crossed former accomplices, but also their violent past. What makes these criminals so surprising is that they are a young mother and her preteen son. Thus begins the intense, yet touching, Bastard, Max de Radiguès’s Fantagraphics debut and a book already nominated for the prestigious noir award at the 2018 Angoulême International Comics Festival. Bastard traces the deadly escape of May and Eugene as they crisscross the United States, encountering mysterious truckers, ambitious bandits, and senior citizens living off the grid in the Southwest. The duo race to get to their stolen cash and simply survive as masterful flashbacks clue us into how they got into this deadly situation in the first place. Both bloody and tender, de Radiguès focuses on the familial relationship as much as the exhilarating plot elements, and his clear-lined style adds depth to the brutality as well as the moments of maternal love. Full of plot twists and high tension, Bastard is a hard-boiled page-turner introducing an adolescent anti-hero that you’re sure not to forget.
