Alan Moore is well known for having changed the very comic book medium with his essential story telling over the past three decades. And now he is set to once again leave an indelible mark upon the comic book reading population with the release of Cinema Purgatorio. Not only does the new stark black & white anthology reinvent what you can expect from the medium but it also brings some of the most well known and regarded talent together into one incredible package.
Cinema Purgatorio begins with the first installment of the namesake story by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill and these incredible talents:
- Kieron Gillen and Ignacio Calero on Modded – a dystopian future where enhanced monsters and daemons are pitted against each other, with a goal of catching them
all! - Garth Ennis and Raulo Caceres continue Code Pru – the two issue series leads directly into the ongoing tale of the night shift FDNY paramedic Pru as she learns about the beastly NY City underworld… and how to offer them medical assistance!
- Christos Gage and Gabriel Andrade bring a new kind of giant monster story to life withThe Vast! A war that humanity is losing seems never ending. Until one woman discovers a monster
that will fight to protect her! - Max Brooks (World War Z) and Michael DiPascale bring Max’s heavily-researched and period-authentic story of the Civil War to life in A More Perfect Union. But this time, the South has been invaded by Giant Insects! Written as only Max Brooks can, taking no detail for granted and treating everything realistically.
