FIRST LOOKS

FIRST LOOK: AEON FLUX #1

Aeon Flux #1 will arrive in stores on Wednesday from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Joe Casey, with art by Stefano Caselli.

Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:

"Four hundred years in the future, the last of humanity will live behind the protective walls of Bregna, an idyllic utopia built to shelter them from the deadly jungle growing beyond. Life in Bregna is perfect, or as perfect as the government can make the people believe. But not everyone is fooled by their mood-altering propaganda‹a small band of freedom fighters wish to see things change, and they just might manage to pull off this impossible dream with the help of their top secret agent, the sexy, deadly Aeon Flux.

"As Bregnan authorities prepare a new weapon to use against the jungle pounding at their walls, Aeon prepares to turn their plans against them. But this time she is not alone‹she has been instructed to train a new agent, a fiery young woman named Sithandra, who may not be all that she appears to be..,

"Reintroducing the cult-classic action heroine best known for her animated adventures on MTV, this series will pave the way for her big-screen debut in this fallıs blockbuster, live- action adaptation starring Charlize Theron. This four-issue miniseries will lay the foundation for events in the film, with all of the fast-paced action and intriguing conceptual sci-fi of the original cartoon."

Aeon Flux #1 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.

Here's how IDW describes the book:

"The Keep has stood empty in the Transylvanian Alps for 500 years. No one knows who built it, or why. But on the eve of WWII, German soldiers move in and awaken something ­ something hungry...something merciless as the SS einsatzkommandos accompanying them. Noted horror writer F. Paul Wilson adapts his own New York Times bestselling novel and is joined by Matthew Smith on art in this, the first installment of the story Publisherıs Journal called, 'A battle between good and evil that staggers the imagination, with an ending as exciting as any horror fan could wish!'"
