The Beginning After the End Vol 6 gives us a bit of a time jump and a lot of solid action and excitement

Posted on by

THE RISE OF THE LEGENDARY ADVENTURER, NOTE. After going toe-to-toe with the head of the Xyrus Adventurer’s Guild, Arthur has finally completed his rank examination and secured a B-Rank placement. It looks like his impressive performance has turned a few heads, though, drawing the attention of the Guild and his fellow B-Rankers―for better or worse. None the wiser, he sets out to train his blade with Jasmine in the Beast Glades…but this is only the start of where Note’s journey will take him. And nothing can prepare Arthur for the terrors he’ll encounter on the way…! without revealing the cards held close to his chest?

Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s New York Remixed and Reimagined in ODB: Oddities, Discord, & B-Sides – Lyrical Ruckus in the City Graphic Novel!

Posted on by

Oni Press presents the first look inside ODB: Oddities, Discord, & B-Sides – Lyrical Ruckus in the City – a volatile, genre-defying homage to hip-hop icon Ol’ Dirty Bastard that reimagines New York City’s Five Boroughs through the eyes of the maverick MC and Wu-Tang Clan co-founder– Coming November 5th.

In a fractured New York City, an elemental impact event has caused different versions of the city’s most infamous neighborhoods from across the multiverse to converge together into a single reality. Spectral apparitions now haunt the streets of Queens. In the Lower East Side, a rogue artificial intelligence has seized the streets. A hundred blocks north, time travelers are throwing a block party in Harlem. And that’s only the beginning… Our guide through this splintered mutation of New York’s past, present, and future is none other than Ol’ Dirty Bastard himself. Follow him as he leads us through odd, urgent, and powerful tales that cast freedom and oppression, wealth and poverty, love and loss, and even life or death like so many dice in a cosmic game of chance.

Created in partnership with Four Screens and officially authorized by the Ol’ Dirty Bastard estate, this taunt and turbulent graphic novel collection debuting in November 2024 features new stories, covers, and contributions from an epic cast every bit as sprawling as the city within: Troy-Jeffrey Allen, Paris Alleyne, David Brame, Dojo Gubser, Jay Hero, Maan House, Mike Del Mundo, Jason Pierre, Ike Reed & David Gorden, Chris Robinson, Regine Sawyer, Damion Scott, Felipe Sobreiro, Ronald Wimberly, and more.

Experience the chaotic harmony of ODB’s art and legacy in an all-new, 112-page graphic anthology that explores the legendary artist’s many identities through the prisms of hand-to-hand kung-fu combat, dystopian science fiction, darkness-haunted horror, and lovelorn romance on November 5th!

The Beginning After the End Vol. 5 isn’t the strongest entry but gets the next arc going

Posted on by

The famed Helstea auction is in full swing, but Arthur has more pressing matters to worry about. Sebastian, the royal family’s guard, has his sights set on Sylvie―and he’s determined to have her, no matter what it takes! Art is well aware he can beat Sebastian in battle, but he must tread carefully, as his family’s reputation with the king is at stake… not to mention he can’t go all out if he wants to keep his capabilities a secret! With Sylvie in danger as well as his Adventurer’s Guild rank examination on the horizon, can Art persevere without revealing the cards held close to his chest?

Born Russell Jones in Fort Greene, Brooklyn and re-christened Ol’ Dirty Bastard as a founding member of the Wu-Tang Clan, ODB’s outrageous lyrics and captivating style stole the spotlight as Wu-Tang’s popularity exploded into the mainstream with their now-classic debut album, Enter the 36 Chambers. By the mid-1990s, ODB was enshrined as one of the biggest artists in hip-hop, releasing his Grammy Award-nominated solo debut, Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version, and releasing multiple chart-topping collaborations that included Mariah Carey’s “Fantasy” and Pras’ “Ghetto Superstar.” Just as ODB’s fame and notoriety continued to expand into a variety of pseudonymous identities – Dirt McGirt, Osiris, Big Baby Jesus, and more – Jones tragically passed away in 2004 at the age of 35, but, today, remains one of the most universally recognized and respected MCs of his generation. The first authorized documentary film chronicling ODB’s turbulent life and times – Ol’ Dirty Bastard: A Tale of Two Dirtys, produced by Four Screens – will debut in 2024 on A&E Network. 

ODB: Oddities, Discord, & B-Sides – Lyrical Ruckus in the City runs until Thursday, January 11 at 11:59 pm EST.
