You’re paranoid. But are you paranoid enough? Matt Kindt’s defining statement on psychic espionage returns with an all-new, entirely self-contained entry point into the genre-bending, Eisner Award-nominated series that Entertainment Weekly calls “one of the most experimental and fascinating books in mainstream comics.” 

New agents. New mission. The rest is classified.

MIND MGMT: NEW AND IMPROVED #1

FORT PSYCHO #1 (of 12)

Written by Matt Kindt 
Art & Cover by Brian Hurtt 

Ten years ago, the nation of Singapore sank into the Pacific Ocean. The underground terrorist network known as The Seven Seals took credit for the largest act of terror in human history. In the aftermath, the United Nations created a strike team of highly trained covert operatives with one mission: locate, identify, and eliminate The Seven Seals’ secretive leader.

The team’s clandestine affairs were to always remain in the shadows – until their final, explosive confrontation with The Seven Seals resulted in a large-scale tragedy too bloody to cover up and too tragic to ignore. Disgraced and disavowed by the governments that trained them, the world’s most dangerous secret agents have been convicted for their crimes and sentenced to serve time side-by-side in the one place capable of holding them: their old island headquarters, Fort Cyclone – now known in the media by the derogatory nickname “Fort Psycho.” 

And that’s where the official story is about to go terribly, terribly wrong.

From master storytellers Matt Kindt (BRZKR, Mind MGMT) and Brian Hurtt (The Sixth Gun), MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE meets LOST on a tropical island paradise stocked with trained killers, secret betrayals, and the long-buried truth about the mission that brought them there. Always remember: There is nothing deadlier than an ally turned enemy.

Super Spy The Lost DossiersI’ve heard praise for Matt Kindt‘s Super Spy and the second volume Super Spy: The Lost Dossiers lives up to those very high standards.  Published by Top Shelf and available now the graphic novel is made up of various short stories that have to do with spying in some way.  All of the stories stand alone, but some also flow into each other in a way.

Couldn’t get enough of the critically-acclaimed and Eisner-nominated SUPER SPY? Curious what all the fuss is about? Have we got a book for you! Creator Matt Kindt has pulled out all the stops to make this an unforgettable supplement to (or first taste of) his 2007 opus.

What’s inside? Deleted scenes! All-new spy stories! Sketchbook pages! 3-D comics! Full annotations! Diagrams of spy gadgets and keys to unlock hidden secret codes! Props and stories for you to cut out and assemble! It’s like a secret spy activity book for grown-ups, bursting with ingenuity and pathos!

PLUS: illustrations, photos, and commentary from Matt explaining the real-world spy origins of his stories and techniques! Don’t just read this book… USE it! — A 96-Page Full-Color Softcover Graphic Novel (5 3/4″ x 8 1/4″), Diamond: JAN10-1114

The presentation is beautiful with pages that look like they’re torn out of a journal, wear, stains and all.  There’s a great mix of real world photos, kitschy do it yourself tasks, puzzles and stereoscope!  The art is beautiful and stories entertaining.  This isn’t just a graphic novel, this is a package and one you’ll want to add to your shelf and collection.  A definite buy.
