Hank Howard, Pizza Detective: The Two Hollywoods #2

(W) Robert Venditti, David Lapham (A) David Lapham

New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti and world-renowned comics legend, David Lapham (STRAY BULLETS, THE HERO TRADE), crank up the heat in the guns-blazing finale to their two-part, high-stakes action extravaganza.

OUT OF JURISDICTION AND OUT OF TIME! 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!

Survive #5

Written by ROBERT VENDITTI
Art & Cover by DOUG BRAITHWAITE
Colors by DIEGO RODRIGUEZ
$5.99 | 32 PGS. | FULL COLOR

COUNTDOWN TO ARMAGEDDON.

It’s a race against time as New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘78, ORDAINED) and powerhouse artist Doug Braithwaite (CONAN, JUSTICE) detonate the earth-shattering finale to their non-stop action thriller in SURVIVE #5!

American operative Trent and Russian sailor Stepan, are bruised, battered, and suffering a brutal 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 the U.S. Navy 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.

Posted on by

Pinned down by an army of undead vampires and caught in the crossfire of the paramilitary vampire hunters who are determined to go down guns blazing, Gail, Sam and their friends are out of back up and out of options. If they want their freedom, they’ll have to make a run for it. But Jagger won’t let them slip through her claws again — the Necratil bloodline ends tonight. And she’s ready to maim and drain anyone who stands in her way. The kids never asked for this life, but they’re not going down without a fight. They’ll need to unleash every one of their supernatural new powers if they’re going to survive. Prepare for carnage. The final showdown is here.

Ordained #2 gets expanded to 48 pages!

Posted on by

THE HEAT IS ON! Ordained #1 is out NOW. And it’s already a runaway success with nationwide store sell-outs, a second and third printing, and comic fans beating down our door for more high-octane action. Bad Idea has announced it’s expanding Ordained #2 into an action-packed 48-page powerhouse!

Ordained is written by Robert Venditti with art by Trevor Hairsine and Tonči Zonjić, color by Dave Stewart, and lettering by DC Hopkins, with a main cover Jorge Fornés.

After a bruising brawl with mob boss Cormac Byrne’s hired guns, Father Royston Craig is still standing. But Cormac’s not through with Roy yet. Now an entire city of corrupt cops and ruthless thugs is tasked with one mission–KILL THE PRIEST. Forced to rely on the combat-hardened skills he earned in a life he thought he left behind, Roy is battered, outnumbered, and on the run. His faith will be tested, and in a city full of killers, the question is: who can he trust?

Check out a preview of Ordained #2 and don’t miss it when it comes to shops January 21.
