Posted on by

Magma Comix, in partnership with Ruptura Estudios, has released a first-look at the thrilling western noir, Hell’s Half Acre #1.

Hell’s Half Acre, written by Magma founder and New York Times Best-selling author, Denton J. Tipton with art by Jack Jadson and Cover A by Ramon Bunge, the exciting new series features special character variant covers by Chris Evenhuis and the first issue has a variant cover by Eduardo Risso.

Life is changing fast in 1904 Nashville but the sins of the past live free in a place called Hell’s Half Acre—where you can find gambling, sex and most any other debauchery ever dreamed. None do it better than Miss Marion’s, where a mysterious gambler named Britt sets in motion a chain of events that will have lawmen and outlaws alike aiming to put him six feet under. Will the woman that Britt scorned be his downfall or salvation when Hell comes calling?

Ruptura Estudios was originally founded in the 1990s amid the burgeoning scene of the so-called “new Mexican comic.” Over time, it has stepped in and out of the spotlight, changing its form and finding different ways to collaborate with other publishing houses. Now, nearly 30 years since its inception, it returns with its core mission intact: help creators and readers on journeys throughout different realities.

The imprint will publish works of fiction with Hispanic appeal by creators from around the world, and will release two titles in 2024.

Hell’s Half Acre #1 drops in shops September 11th.

Torpedo, not so much. As a persistent journalist prepares to write an article about the Caputo family, the demons of Torpedo’s past resurface, along with his dirty old habits…

DSTLRY reveals covers for Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso’s The Blood Brothers Mother

Posted on by

DSTLRY has debuted new variant covers for The Blood Brothers Mother #1, the kickoff of a biting western tale of revenge by Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso, the Eisner and Harvey Award-winning creative team behind Vertigo crime classic 100 Bullets.

Legendary creative team Brian Azzarello, Eduardo Risso, and editor Will Dennis return with a carnage-filled western saga, bringing their honed characters, dialogue, and textured illustration to a genre steeped in American iconography and bloodshed. 

The Blood Brothers Mother follows three children—their step-father gunned down by their recently paroled father; their mother kidnapped; their family torn asunder. The kids set off to rescue her across the wild Texas frontier, where they’ll face the harsh elements of an unforgiving landscape, deadly animals hungry for blood, merciless bounty hunters, and so much more. 

Along the way, they’ll learn the real cost of revenge—not just in lives, but in how it stains a soul. While revenge may be satisfying in the moment, it leaves a yearning behind that lasts a lifetime. And once you taste it, nothing else is ever so sweet.

The creator-owned western launches this May as the esteemed duo seek vengeance with a pair of open order covers by Risso and new incentive variants by Rafael Albuquerque, Howard Chaykin, and Junko Mizuno, all of which will also be available as variants for the digital release on dstlry.co:

  • Cover A – Eduardo Risso – Open Order
  • Cover B – Eduardo Risso – Open Order
  • Cover C – Rafael Albuquerque (American Vampire, Blue Beetle) – 1:10 Incentive Variant
  • Cover D – Howard Chaykin (American Flagg!, Star Wars) – 1:25 Incentive Variant
  • Cover E – Junko Mizuno (Pure Trance, Ravina the Witch?) – 1:50 Incentive Variant

Crowdfunding Corner: Howard Chaykin comes to Zoop with John Benteen’s FARGO: Hell On Wheels

Backer Beware: Crowdfunding projects are not guaranteed to be delivered and/or delivered when promised. We always recommend to do your research before backing.
Disclosure: Graphic Policy’s founder Brett is a member of the Zoop team.

John Benteen's FARGO: Hell On Wheels

If you’re a fan of comics, you know the name Howard Chaykin. The legendary creator of American Flagg!. The man who first brought Star Wars to comics. He has worked for every publisher in the comic book business, on every major character. He’s best known for his creator owned work over the years. Chaykin now takes destiny into his hands with his first ever crowdfunding campaign for John Benteen’s FARGO: Hell On Wheels!

The campaign is for a 96+ page prestige format hardcover graphic novel adaptation of one of Chaykin’s favorite characters from the highwater era of paperback adventure heroes of the sixties and seventies. Chaykin writes and draws the entire book, along with the extraordinary colorist Yen Nitro and of course his longtime letterer/designer, Ken Bruzenak.

Neal Fargo has been perfectly described as ” Conan meets The Wild Bunch.”  In Hell on Wheels, Fargo is hired to protect a small railroad under relentless attack from a corrupt and ruthless competitor with money to burn, and hired guns to do the burning.

Fargo is a man ready for any challenge, and for this hardboiled soldier of fortune, payback is fair game. Packed with fist fighting brawls, gunplay, women and whiskey from running start to stunning finish, Hell on Wheels is the perfect example of why Fargo is a timeless character in the timeless world of adventure fiction, and perfect for the modern graphic novel.

Supporters of the campaign are in for massive treats, as there are art contributions to the book by a murderer’s row of artists, including Gary Frank, Butch Guice, Eduardo Risso, Denys Cowan, Mahmud Asrar, and more with a cover by Dave Johnson.  They also have the chance to be drawn into the comic and have their likeness be mercilessly slaughtered on page, in the way only Howard Chaykin can deliver a massacre!
