FIRST LOOKS
FIRST LOOK: THE ESCAPISTS #3
The Escapists #3 will arrive in stores on Sept. 13 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Brian K. Vaughan, with art by Brian Rolston and Jason Alexander and a cover by John Cassaday.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:
"Case Weaver is getting reckless after Denny's costume-clad punch-out made the national news. This time, she and Max break into the Cleveland Plain Dealer's office in the middle of the night, in an attempt to give their new Escapist title as much press as the publicity stunt. But with the night watchman closing in via their only route out, the only pressing they might get from the Plain Dealer could be charges!
"Also in this issue, the relationship between Max and Case develops alongside the pages of their relaunch, as Luna Moth leads our intrepid hero on a steamy chase in the rain. There's good and bad news as the creative team reads their first review and gets back numbers on issue one . . . will this make them or break them?"
The Escapists #3 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.
