Posted on by

He’s running out of time! After years spent rewinding his life in a desperate bid to stop the impending apocalypse, Saver is grizzled, grey, and through playing hero. No matter how far back he jumps, the future always ends in flames. So he gives up trying, hiding out in the past to relive one perfect year with his wife, over and over again. But when he finds out his wife is pregnant, everything changes. Now anchored in time by the birth of his daughter, Saver can only go back so far without erasing her from existence.

Bad Idea’s Ordained #1 Has Sold Out Before Release and Heads Back for a Second Printing

Posted on by

Ordained #1, which comes to shops December 10, has sold out at the distributor level before its release. The comic from writer Robert Venditti, art by Trevor Hairsine, color by Dave Stewart, lettering by DC Hopkins, and published by Bad Idea is getting a second printing with a cover by Jorge Fornes. The Ordained #1 second printing arrives January 21.

The series has buzz with it heading to the big screen in an adaptation starring Colin Farrell in a movie by the Russo Brothers and Derek Kolstad.

Father Royston Craig became a priest late in life but he’s determined to make up for lost time. Along with his regular duties at his St. Louis church, he also performs the prayers of the last rites to patients on their deathbeds at the nearby hospital.

One day, he’s called to give these sacraments to Cormac Byrne, who doctors say won’t last the night. Byrne, like many others, has turned to God only at the end; he hasn’t been to church in decades. Father Roy is eager to hear his confession, but what starts as petty crime from a lifetime ago quickly becomes a horrifying litany of gangland violence and killings. Cormac Byrne is no ordinary man. He is, in fact, the head of the Irish mafia. God offers forgiveness to all who truly repent, and Father Roy completes his task by absolving Byrne of his mortal sins, leaving the man to die at peace…

…until the next morning. When Byrne makes a miraculous medical recovery. No longer at death’s door, Byrne is quick to return to his old ways. It’s business as usual and he’s got loose ends to tie up. First things first: KILL THE PRIEST who now knows where all the bodies are buried.

But Father Roy’s collar wasn’t always white, and Byrne is going to learn the hard way that Father Royston Craig was once Chief Petty Officer Royston Craig, a former Navy SEAL who found his faith in the midst of battle. Now Father Roy must face vicious gangsters, corrupt cops, and his own inner demons if he is to survive. And while he will be forced to tap into a violent skill set he thought never to again entertain, the one thing Father Roy will not do… is kill.

2000 AD Announce an Exclusive Sketch Editions for Rogue Trooper: When A GI Dies

Posted on by

Hot on the heels of the best-selling Rogue Trooper: Blighty Valley, Garth Ennis and Patrick Goddard return with a new standalone Rogue Trooper graphic novel which delves into the mythos of the character.

Nu Earth: an endless battleground between Nort and Souther forces – but Rogue Trooper is the sole survivor of the Genetic Infantry, and together with the bio-chipped “ghosts” of his dead comrades he hunts down the traitor who sold out his regiment.

Now, three years after the Quartz Zone Massacre which wiped out his platoon and stalled the Genetic Infantry programme, Rogue is drawn into a web of intrigue involving a genetic engineer’s attempts to kickstart the programme again, but with the bio-chips of the dead soldiers from the original massacre – with terrible consequences.

Garth Ennis and Patrick Goddard bring you an all-new adventure featuring the iconic 2000 AD character, combining intrigue and action, and delving into the backstory of Rogue Trooper. Following the smash-hit of Blighty Valley, the team are back for a hard-hitting and fast-paced action blitz which will see Rogue tested to his limit!

Alongside the standard edition hardback featuring a cover by artist Trevor Hairsine is a webshop-exclusive edition with a new cover from original story artist Goddard, featuring both Rogue and his re-gened comrade Gunnar as they blast the Norts!

And to celebrate this huge milestone for Rogue Trooper, we’re proud to also announce a special limited-edition sketch edition featuring unique sketches from Goddard in each book. The Goddard droid will be hand-sketching inside fifty editions of When A GI Dies, and when they’re gone… they’re gone! These sketch editions will not be re-gened!

Only fifty of these limited-edition sketch editions will be made available, each one of them hand-drawn by Goddard, making this the ultimate prize.

Continuing our run of modern classic stories featuring Rogue Trooper, When A G.I. Dies is a standalone story for anyone interested in reading more about the character – but also forms a formidable alliance when read alongside Blighty Valley. As the Rogue Trooper movie from visionary director Duncan Jones approaches in 2026, this is a brilliant way to get onboard with 2000 AD and sign up for the Nu-Earth war effort!

Releasing on March 24, 2026, Rogue Trooper: When A G.I. Dies continues the modern missions of the Genetic Infantryman! Pre-order now to reserve your copy!

Save Now #1 is solid sci-fi mixed with superheroes and has excited for what’s to come

Posted on by

Armed with the extraordinary ability to “save” any moment in his life and then go back and relive from that point forward again, SAVER can rewrite his past, altering his actions time and time again until he gets things right. But cursed with only being able to travel backwards, never forwards, he is burdened by having to spend his relived life in agonizing real time. Travel back 6 days, and he must relive those days in full, aging all the while.

Saver has seen our future, and our impending apocalypse. Yet, no matter how many times he goes back and no matter how far back he goes, he can’t steer us clear of armageddon. What would you do if you knew the world was going to end but couldn’t stop it? What if you could choose to live your life out repeating the best year of your life? Which year would it be?
