TOP COW'S CYBERFORCE/HUNTER-KILLER

Top Cow Productions has announced a Cyberforce/Hunter-Killer crossover limited series to begin in July.

The series will be written by Mark Waid, who co-created Hunter-Killer with Top Cow founder and CEO Marc Silvestri in 2005. Kenneth Rocafort, who drew the final four issues of Season 1 of Hunter-Killer, will be the artist.

"I can't wait to work with Kenneth again," Waid said. "He blew my mind when I first saw his Hunter-Killer pages during the first run. To be brutally honest, it's rare that I see a new artist whose work doesn't feel redundant or a clone of something else already out there. Kenneth's energy knocks me out."

"This is a dream come true to draw one of my favorite teams of all time, Cyberforce," Rocafort said. "And to combine that with the characters of Hunter-Killer, which I love to draw, and working with Mark again, this is an exciting project for me."

According to Top Cow, story details of the crossover are being "kept under wraps for now." Click on the thumbnails for Rocafort's designs.

* Image Comics has unveiled Erik Larsen's variant cover of Barack Obama for Savage Dragon #143, in stores on Feb. 25.

"I had always intended to follow up Dragon's previous presidential campaign with his own endorsement, but I never anticipated how much heat it would generate," Larsen said. "When Barack appeared on the incentive cover of Savage Dragon #137 as a candidate it led to the book going through numerous printings."
