Start the year with The End League

Tuesday, January 1, 2008 - Soon Van

The End League #1

The End League #1; written by Rick Remender, pencils by Mat Broome, inks by Sean Parsons

New Year's celebrations have come about and the neighbours find themselves with clubs and bats and the endless search of right. Much like the search for Thor's Hammer in the end of the world with evil. Not unlike the backstreet over.

A thematic merging of The Lord of the Rings and Watchmen, The End League follows a cast of the last remaining supermen and women as they embark on a desperate and perilous journey through a world dominated by evil, in hopes of locating the one remaining artifact that can save humanity-the Hammer of Thor. For his return to the world of comics renowned artist Mat Broome (WildC.A.T.S.) teams up with critically acclaimed writer Rick Remender (Fear Agent) for this, Dark Horse Comics's newest superhero series.

Other comics to eyeball this week



Ultimate Hulk takes on Ultimate Iron Man in an Ultimate Versus in Ultimate Human. Warren Ellis and Cary Nord ringside in the four corners of this desperate match.

Kevin Rubio and Steve Anderson, the blokes what done Tag and Bink, peer into the Abyss. Oh what a lame segue that was.

The Authority goes up against StormWatch in The Authority: Prime with Christos Gage and Darick Robertson.

Come together like the young superheroes, Teen Titans: Year One goes back at, year one of the Teen Titans. Amy Wolfram, Karl Kerschl and Serge Lapointe for the six hit.

Jason and the Argonauts: The Kingdom of Hades sounds all sorts of Greek underworld vacation time. Plus no moose heads! David McIntee and Rantz Jason going to hell. And maybe back.

Trade of the week

In the spring of 2003, a pride of lions escaped from the Baghdad Zoo during an American bombing raid. Lost and confused, hungry but finally free, the four lions roamed the decimated streets of Baghdad in a desperate struggle for their lives.

Brian K. Vaughn and Niko Henrichon walk the streets as the lions out of the Baghdad zoo break out after a bombing in Pride of Baghdad.

In documenting the plight of the lions, PRIDE OF BAGHDAD raises questions about the true meaning of liberation - can it be given, or is it earned only through self-determination and sacrifice? And in the end, is it truly better to die free than to live life in captivity?
