LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN'S FINAL VOLUME

IDW Publishing has announced a June release for League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Vol. IV: The Tempest, which will complete the series run, as well as the comic-book careers for writer Alan Moore and artist Kevin O'Neill.

Here's how IDW describe the book, released through its Top Shelf Productions imprint:

"Tying up the slenderest of plot threads and allusions from the three preceding volumes, The Black Dossier, and the Nemo trilogy into a dazzling and ingenious bow, the world's most accomplished and bad-tempered artist-writer team will use their most stylistically adventurous outing yet to display the glories of the medium they are leaving; to demonstrate the excitement that attracted them to the field in the first place; and to analyse, critically and entertainingly, the reasons for their departure.

"Opening simultaneously in the panic-stricken headquarters of British Military Intelligence, the fabled Ayesha’s lost African city of Kor and the domed citadel of 'We' on the devastated Earth of the year 2996, the dense and yet furiously-paced narrative hurtles like an express locomotive across the fictional globe from Lincoln Island to modern America to the Blazing World; from the Jacobean antiquity of Prospero's Men to the superhero-inundated pastures of the present to the unimaginable reaches of a shimmering science-fiction future. With a cast-list that includes many of the most iconic figures from literature and pop culture, and a tempo that conveys the terrible momentum of inevitable events, this is literally and literarily the story to end all stories.

" Commencing as a six-issue run of unfashionable, outmoded and flimsy children’s comics that will make you appear emotionally backward if you read them on the bus, this climactic magnum opus will also reprint classic English super-team publication The Seven Stars from the murky black-and-white reaches of 1964."

WYNONNA EARP: "EVERYBODY KNOWS"

Syfy has released images and details from "Everybody Knows," the episode of Wynonna Earp premiering on Friday, July 21.

"Doc and Wynonna's indiscretions haunt the team and the ties that bind them. Wynonna and Nicole hit the road for answers."
