FIRST LOOK: KORE #5

Kore #5 will arrive in stores on Wednesday from Image Comics. The issue is written by Josh Blaylock, penciled by Tim Seeley and inked by Cory Hamscher.

Here's how Image describes the issue:

"First there was an Ogreās farm filled with 'evil' chickens, then a vampire motorcycle gang, and now Alexander Crane finds himself sleeping in a 'Gentlemenās Club' for trolls and fairies. Thanks to Molli, a Sprite willing to offer sarcastic advice, Alex is able to at least hold on to his sanity, and learn about this strange world.

"Even the strongest of minds break down eventually, though, and Alex is hardly the strongest. Itās only when he remembers that his Girlfriend, Mandy, is probably in danger thanks to him, that he pulls himself together and prepares to face the Archean head on.

"Little does he know that the very magicians that helped him on Earth have sent the deadly Rakshasa to watch over her. This mysterious womanās role is to see that the Archean not use Mandy against Alex, even if it means killing her."

Kore #5 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.95.
