AVATAR PRESS FOR FEBRUARY

STREETS OF GLORY COLLECTED EDITION

By Garth Ennis and Mike Wolfer.

Garth Ennis gives a new glory to the Old West in this blazing six-issue saga! Colonel Joseph Dunn is a man of honor, integrity, and one of the last bastions of the old guard. Joe has lived his life both as a soldier and a lone gun, but above all, someone that could be trusted to defend the common man with everything in him -- and, if need be, the hot steel of death. Dunn has been away from Montana for more than 15 years, lost to all who knew him. When he comes riding back into town, Dunn still represents the best of the past, but that era is quickly fading. It is 1899, and the world is changing, the future is coming. There are glorious new sights on the horizon, but a few things have changed too much, and the bad isn't to Dunn's liking. It's up to one man to make things right -- a man that can stomach the task of bodies piling up, while the streets run red with glorious blood! Ennis teams with Mike Wolfer for this epic full-color series that promises to thrill every fan of Garth's powerful story-telling and brutal violence. Available in a standard Softcover and a limited edition Hardcover, of just 1,500 copies, both with covers by Wolfer.

160 pages, $19.99 (Hardcover, $27.99).

CROSSED #5

By Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrows.

Nothing is going right, but this is no fairy tale ... there are no magic cures on the horizon. When civilization crumbles in one terrifying moment; when people are gleefully breaking into unthinkable acts of violence all around you; when everyone you love has died screaming in agony: What do you do? There is no help. There is no hope. There is no escape. There are only the Crossed! This issue is available with a Regular or Wraparound cover by Burrows as well as a rare Red Crossed Edition featuring a striking Black, White and Red cover by Burrows.

DOKTOR SLEEPLESS #14

By Warren Ellis and Ivan Rodriguez.

Things are getting out of control. Everyone's looking for Doktor Sleepless. But there's no sign that any of what's going wrong -- murders, destruction, massive amounts of new drugs, war on the streets, domestic terrorism, riots -- is actually his doing. No one's seen him. In fact, the only person ever seen coming out of the house on the hill is the Nurse. Which makes journalist Sarah Berlin wonder: Is Doktor Sleepless already dead? The issue is available with a regular cover by series artist Ivan Rodriguez, or wraparound cover by Juan Jose Ryp, and also a rare Future Warning Sign cover.

32 pages, $3.99.

GRAVEL #10

By Warren Ellis and Mike Wolfer.

Combat Magician William Gravel is getting a bit out of his depth in this second story arc of his ongoing series! Out by Glastonbury Tor, on the grasslands that were once under the lake around Avalon, the mythical place from which the very sword Excalibur was produced, William Gravel has finally met an enemy he cannot shoot. All the hatred of History itself is bubbling up from a desecrated place of power -- the site where one of the English queens of magic was brutally murdered. The Major Seven continues, briefly, with William Gravel getting hacked to bits in the middle of the night! This issue is available with a regular or wraparound cover by Mike Wolfer and also a rare Black Magic Edition featuring a new cover by Wolfer.

32 pages, $3.99.

Unless he was the ticking time bomb, all along! Everything comes to a head in this sixth issue, which is available with a Regular or Wraparound cover by Ryp as well as a rare Design Sketch Edition featuring the initial character designs by Ryp.

32 pages, $3.99.
