AFTER 15 YEARS AND A MILLION BULLETS . . . THE SIXTH GUN IS REBORN!

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 an ordinary young woman and a hard-nosed gunslinger who, together, were our last, best hope to forestall Armageddon.

They prevailed, but at a terrible price.

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 can survive to claim victory. THE BATTLE FOR THE SIX starts now!

In celebration of 15 years of one of the most beloved smash-hits in the history of creator-owned comics, return to the Eisner Award–nominated world of THE SIXTH GUN as co-creators Cullen Bunn (Harrow County) and Brian Hurtt (The Midnite Show) reunite for an all-new, self-contained entry point into the acclaimed saga that fantasy icon Michael Moorcock calls “an epic in its own right”—as told across three extra-sized, ad-free issues in a deluxe prestige format!
