DC Comics.

Empire (Gorilla Comics 1-2, DC 6-issue mini; w Mark Waid; a Barry Kitson & James Pascoe). [From DC Comics: EMPIRE, the result of the creative fusion of critically acclaimed creators Mark Waid (KINGDOM COME, SUPERMAN: BIRTHRIGHT, Fantastic Four) and artists Barry Kitson (JLA: YEAR ONE, Avengers/Thunderbolts) & James Pascoe (BATMAN: GOTHAM KNIGHTS), is an atypical comic-book tale...one told from the perspective of a villain rather than a hero. This volume collects the sold-out 6-issue miniseries along with a 5-page preview that has never been reprinted! EMPIRE mixes political intrigue with all-out action, as seen through the cold eyes of the ruthless dictator Golgoth. This collection also features a new cover and sketchbook section by Kitson and an introduction by Waid!] Old Book of the Week 6/23/04
