SOMETIMES WHAT’S DEAD DOESN’T STAY GONE! Oni Press has announced the long-awaited return to the Eisner Award-nominated world of The Sixth Gun this July as acclaimed co-creators Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt usher in The Sixth Gun: Battle for the Six #1 – an all-new, self-contained entry point into the acclaimed saga told across three extra-sized and ad-free prestige format issues all summer long!
Coinciding with the 15th anniversary of The Sixth Gun‘s debut and initially teased in the aftermath of last year’s blockbuster The Sixth Gun Deluxe Omnibus Libary campaign on Kickstarter, Bunn and Hurtt’s long-awaited return to the powder-burned world of their supernatural Western classic will be preceded by The Sixth Gun: Road to the Six #0 – a one-shot prelude featuring three all-new short stories spotlighting key cast members from The Sixth Gun in the years between the series’ epic conclusion with issue #50 and its forthcoming resurgence in The Sixth Gun: Battle for the Six #1!
In 1866, out of the ruins of the failed Confederate uprising, a race to claim six objects of unfathomable occult power began … thrusting the fate of humanity into the hands of ordinary young woman and a hard-nosed gunslinger who, together, were our last, best hope to forestall Armageddon.
At a terrible price, they prevailed.
But that was then. This is now. Three decades later, as the gears of a new millennium begin to grind on the cusp of the 20th Century, The Sixth Gun is about to be REBORN once more – as it has been countless times across the eons. This time, however, a brigade of familiar fighters lies in wait to meet The Sixth Gun‘s nigh-limitless power head-on… alongside a secret cabal that wish to harness its unspeakable power to incept a new century of war, genocide, and suffering.
Only one will survive to claim victory. THE BATTLE FOR THE SIX is about to begin!
The return to one of the 21st Century’s first true creator-owned comics classics beginning on June 4 in The Sixth Gun: Road to the Six #0, featuring covers by Brian Hurtt, Justin Greenwood, and Matt Kindt… and then master storytellers Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt reload the chambers of their occult American odyssey for a brand-new generation in The Sixth Gun: Battle for the Six #1– coming to comic shops everywhere July 23!
