BLACK
SCIENCE #1
Grant McKay,
former member of The Anarchistic Order of Scientists, has finally done the
impossible: he has deciphered Black Science and punched through the barriers of
reality. But what lies beyond the veil is not epiphany, but chaos. Now Grant
and his team are lost, living ghosts shipwrecked on an infinite ocean of alien
worlds, barreling through the long-forgotten, ancient, and unimaginable dark
realms. The only way is forward. The only question is how far are they willing
to go, and how much can they endure, to get home again? Image Firsts edition is
available with Diamond code FEB148357.
DEADLY CLASS
#1
Welcome to
the most brutal high school on Earth, where the world’s top crime families send
the next generation of assassins to be trained. Murder is an art. Killing is a
craft. At King’s Dominion High School for the Deadly Arts, the dagger in your
back isn’t always metaphorical, nor is your fellow classmates' poison. Image
Firsts edition is available with Diamond code FEB148358.
EAST OF WEST
#1
He has been
called Abaddon. The Reaper. Fool's Bane. The Grey Walker. You speak his name in
hushed tones, if at all. You fear him and all he represents. He is the ultimate
state of all things. He is Death. But, in the past, Death found peace. For his
betrayal, the rest of the Four Horsemen snatched happiness away from him
forever. Now, Death rides with Crow and Wolf in search of those who wronged
him. We would tell you to pray, but it wouldn't do any good. You have earned
what is coming to you. Image Firsts edition is available with Diamond code
FEB148359.
LAZARUS #1
In a
dystopian near-future, government is a quaint concept, resources are coveted,
and possession is 100% of the law. A handful of Families rule, jealously
guarding what they have and exploiting the Waste who struggle to survive in
their domains. Forever Carlyle defends her family's holdings through deception
and force as their protector, their Lazarus. Shot dead defending the family
home, Forever's day goes downhill from there… Image Firsts edition is available
with Diamond code FEB148360.
MANIFEST
DESTINY #1
In 1804,
Captain Meriwether Lewis and Second Lieutenant William Clark set out on an
expedition to explore the uncharted American frontier. This is the story of
what they discovered lurking in the wilds… Image Firsts edition is available
with Diamond code FEB148361.
PRETTY
DEADLY #1
Sandman
meets Preacher in PRETTY DEADLY, where Death's daughter rides the wind on a
horse made of smoke and her face bears the skull marks of her father. Her tale
of retribution is as beautifully lush as it is unflinchingly savage. Image
Firsts edition is available with Diamond code FEB148362.
SEX
CRIMINALS #1
Suzie's a
normal girl with an extraordinary ability: when she has sex, she stops time.
One night she meets Jon... who has the same gift. And so they do what any other
sex-having, time-stopping, couple would do: they rob banks. Image Firsts
edition is available with Diamond code FEB148363.
VELVET #1
When the
world's best secret agent is killed, Velvet Templeton, the Personal Assistant
to the Director of the Agency, is drawn off her desk and back into the field
for the first time in nearly 20 years... and is immediately caught in a web of
mystery, murder and high-octane action. Sexy and provocative, VELVET is a dark
twist on the spy genre. Image Firsts edition is available with Diamond code
FEB148364.
ZERO #1
Edward Zero is the perfect execution machine—a spy who
breaks the rules to get things done. When a stolen device appears in the center
of a long-running conflict, Zero comes to retrieve it. The problem is, the
device is inside a living, breathing, bio-modified terrorist and there's an
entire army after it. Image Firsts edition available with Diamond code FEB148365.
