Cole is a repo man of the highest caliber, repossessing heavily guarded mega yachts from billionaires, private planes from captains of industry, and everything in-between. If it’s got an engine, he can drive it, ride it, or fly it straight out from under the nose of an army of guards.

But now he’s handed the job of a lifetime. The impossible job. One that will bring him face to face with the highest stakes.

The Russians have stolen aeronautical military secrets from China, France, Germany, The UK, and the US to “Frankenstein” together the ultimate bleeding edge, next-gen fighter jet: The Warbird. There are only three of them in existence. They are a force of absolute nature—$1.4 billion apiece—dominating every global hotspot from Syria to Ukraine. And Cole’s been hired to steal one… and destroy the other two.

His fee? 10%. A cool $140 million. But this isn’t a repossession job. This is outright theft. And failure doesn’t mean jail time and fines—it means a bullet to the back of the head.

Ordained #2 Second Printing arrives in stores on April 15th, alongside Ordained #1 Fourth Printing, and the all-new, bone-crushing special — Ordained #0: The Machine!

Frank Quitely, Derek Kolstad, Robert Venditti, and Jesse Lonergan Storm Shops with Warbird

Buckle up! Because Warbird #0 is rocketing into comic shops on April 29th — just in time for Free Comic Book Day! Blockbuster screenwriter Derek Kolstad and New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti shattered the sales records and made history with their mega-hit Planet Death. The team is BACK in the cockpit! And they’re bringing the heat once more for an all-new, white-knuckle, globe-spanning action/spy blockbuster. Suiting up for the ride is superstar artist Jesse Lonergan! Nominated for an Eisner for his Image series Hedra, and renowned for his critically-acclaimed original graphic novel, Drome, Lonergan takes flight on interior art.

The team is joined by living legend Frank Quitely. Not only has he provided stunning design work for the series, but Quitely is coming in hot with a jaw-dropping cover!

Witness Cole in action with just a glimpse of the Russian next generation fighter jet — a cover so stunning, it’s also offered as gorgeous, ultra-rare, virgin incentive!

Cole is a repo man of the highest caliber, repossessing heavily guarded mega yachts from billionaires, private planes from captains of industry, and everything in-between. If it’s got an engine, he can drive it, ride it, or fly it straight out from under the nose of an army of guards.

Survive #5 delivers 80s action film awesomeness in its finale

Posted on by

Bruised, battered, and suffering from a serious case of the Bends, but far from out of the fight. Deep inside the Turgenev, they’ve uncovered a hidden stockpile of nuclear weapons, guarded by a ruthless band of heavily armed Russian mercenaries. With a U.S. Navy anti-ship cruise missile locked onto the vessel and seconds ticking down, Trent and Stepan must carve a path through the mercs, secure the ship, and trigger the strike that will obliterate the Turgenev before its deadly payload can reach its target.

Hank Howard, Pizza Detective: The Two Hollywoods #2 wraps up the mystery with a solid finale

Posted on by

The heat’s rising in Hollywood as Detective Hank Howard closes in on the Aussie drug syndicate that left Big Caligula’s rising star lying cold on the linoleum. But the bodies are piling up around him and the feds muscling in on his murder case are demanding that he back down…or else. But an explosive showdown with a flamethrower-wielding hitman tells him he’s hot on the killer’s trail–and he’s not backing down. Outgunned, outnumbered, and out of jurisdiction, Hank will need his fists and his wits if he’s going to crack the case before he finds himself buried six feet down under!
