DC Comics – VERTIGO
LAST GANG IN TOWN #1 (OF 7) (MR)
DC COMICS
(W) Simon Oliver (A) Rufus Dayglo (CA) Rob Davis
Forget what you know of England, of the “Land of Hope and Glory.” Instead, try damp and
depressing, and embrace this miserable island for what it is. Our story kicks off in 1976:
the country coming apart at its flared corduroy seams, a decade after the Great Train
Robbery, when British crime has gone decidedly soft in the middle.
Time for a new generation of criminals to rise: a band of snotty-nosed heroes driven by
destiny and cheap cider, who will strike fear back into the establishment, put art back
into crime and crime back into art, and pull off what will become known as the heist of the
century.
This new series from Simon Oliver (FBP: FEDERAL BUREAU OF PHYSICS) and Rufus Dayglo (Tank
Girl), spans three decades, from the punk rock ’70s to the decadent ’80s and beyond,
charting the rise, fall and redemption of a group of bandits that changed the face of the
criminal underworld and closed the door on a legacy.

Lee Garbett (Loki)!
As this series begins, God is dead-and Gabriel has accused Lucifer of His murder. Lucifer
had motive and opportunity, but claims he can prove his innocence. If Gabriel finds the
killer and takes the culprit into custody, his sins will be forgotten, and he’ll be
welcomed back to Silver City. So, despite the fact that Lucifer just opened a nightclub on
Earth and is hiding a mysterious wound, the two brothers set off to solve their Father’s
murder. Their investigation will span Heaven, Hell, Earth and beyond in this antagonistic
buddy-cop noir with an angelic flair.

characteristics from history’s most notorious lovers. Using little-known writings by Ada
Lovelace, the world’s first computer programmer, Lexy pushes the boundaries of coding and

love in this paranormal rom-com by Vertigo veteran writer Peter Milligan and rising art-

Utopia is here. Hunger, sickness, work…all relics of a long forgotten past. For the
greater good of the human species, all individuality, creativity, and negative emotions
have been genetically bred out and medically suppressed. The population is limited to
segregated areas where people lead long lives of leisure, games, and socializing. Only one
man and one woman seem to notice, care, or think differently. Once they find each other,
their relationship sparks a revolution…but will their love cause the salvation or
destruction of mankind?

VENUS #1
BOOM! STUDIOS
(W) Rick Loverd (A) Huang Danlan (CA) W. Scott Forbes
What’s to Love: Surviving against all odds. Adventures on the frontier. Lying on the cusp
of discovering something new. Rick Loverd (Berserker) and artist Huang Danlan brought us a
story that evokes the history of great adventurers from the pilgrims to the Western
pioneers, from deep-sea explorers to polar trailblazers, all of whom searched for a new
beginning.
What It Is: In 2150, Earth’s resources are depleted, and countries race to outer space to
mine what they need from other planets. China has laid claim to Mars, so the U.S. and its
allies have to make do with getting what it needs from the inhospitable world of Venus. But
for a group of Americans making its way there, survival has become all too real. After
their ship crash-lands on the planet, the scrappy crew is forced to do whatever it takes to
navigate the harsh landscape in their journey to find the science base they were flying
toward. In the vein of great adventure survival stories like Lost and The Martian, there’s
only one reality on Venus-adapt or die.
