A
final vision of the future is revealed in THE OVERMAN,
a 5-issue science fiction mini-series event from Image
Comics, written by Scott Reed and illustrated by Shane
White.
"The
story is a stark and direct manifesto of the future,"
says writer, Scott Reed "It's set in a neo-deco
futuristic Pittsburgh, and begins much like a detective
story. The plot escalates beyond that, into something
surreal and incredibly devastating."
Hired
killer Nathan Fisher stumbles upon a vast, cryptic plot
to merge Mankind with a bio-mechanical species, a scheme
that could result in the total enslavement of Earth
and beyond. Risking everything, and skirting the edge
of madness, Nathan must somehow find a way to stop the
mastermind behind this apocalyptic goal; a powerful
corporation called Omakon, and their ancient, perverse
president, Arnold Reitch.
Fans
attending WizardWorld Chicago can get a sneak peek at
the first chapter of The Overman, August 10-12th at
booth #5206.
THE
OVERMAN #1, a 32-page comic with a cover price of $3.50,
will be available for order in the October issue of
Previews and will go on sale December. For more information,
