There was Before the Incal, and now there is 'Before' The Metabarons. From legendary creator Alexandro Jodorowsky and artist Das Pastoras comes the tale of Dayal de Castaka, here for all of those who dreamed of a prequel to The Metabarons. The Metabarons dealt with the extraordinary saga of the genealogy of the galaxy's ultimate warrior. But his ancestors also had ancestors. And far from being noble warriors with an inflexible code, one will discover they were in fact disloyal and lawless pirates born out of brutality and war.

PAUL POPE's new graphic novel Battling Boy debuted at #1 on the New York Times bestseller list, and the original art is now the focus of a series of traveling art exhibits in the United States and Europe. Image Comics presents POPE's large, lush, brushy original drawings, represented here in detail, photographed from the actual art boards, with minimal editorial interference or digital editing. This is a wide sampling from the various touring exhibits, featuring the art in its original format, with text in English, French, and Italian. The book focuses on the subtleties of the drawings in process, replicating the experience of seeing the art in person. 63 originals from Battling Boy are showcased, along with detailed close-ups of the pages. A critical essay by CHARLES BROWNSTEIN, executive director of CBLDF, is included. POPE himself contributes an essay on the influences behind Battling Boy, as well as his process and technique. This is a must for any POPE fan, student, fellow artist, or fan of the medium. MONSTERS & TITANS is a celebration of the original art from one of the most critically-acclaimed American cartoonists of our time.

One of the most acclaimed crime series ever returns! When Gary Goldsmith and his young son Asa are involved in a deadly hit and run, their night goes from bad to worse when their grisly deed is witnessed by a disturbing stranger. Find out what thirty dollars, a dirty diaper, and a girl named Yummy will reveal about the true meaning of life in a little story we like to call "The Love Ride." Featuring the return of Spanish Scott!
This new arc of stories about life and love and all the things we do to kill them starts out in the best noir tradition, then turns the genre on its ear. Would you expect any less? If you've never read STRAY BULLETS before, jump in here. Hell, jump in anywhere. Every issue always presents a complete story that fits into a larger whole.
I cannot explain to you the sheer shock, awe and excitement when I first heard that Image would be publishing not only the long long long awaited conclusion to David Lapham's noir masterpiece, but new issues as well which blew my freakin' my mind!! The impact that this intense series had upon my young 16 year old psyche was like a gunshot to my head, leaving me with the resounding echoes of its masterful depiction of the depravity and beauty that exists at the very bottom of humanity. This comic is a MUST have for anyone who has ever wondered what lay down that dark and dirty alley in the dark recesses of our minds or if you just wanna be shown how one man's ten year determination can result in a dream that has inspired so many others in their creative paths.
