The Shadow, the Green Hornet, Kato, the Spider and more in a story that only Dynamite could tell! For the first time EVER, these masked vigilantes are joining together in one EPIC series! It’s 1938, and the Justice Party has swept into office in New York State. But the newly-elected officials are in the control of powerful criminals, who quickly corrupt the law to their own advantage. When a fascist police state is instituted, the only ones who stand in defense of the innocent are masked vigilantes like the Shadow, the Green Hornet, Kato, and the Spider. As the confrontation builds, more masked heroes will join the fight including Black Bat, Miss Fury, Black Terror, Green Lama and many more!

Praise for Dynamite’s The Shadow!
“The Shadow is powerful, scary and full of crazy new powers of which most people are probably unaware. And under Garth Ennis’ crafty pen, he is intimidating and interesting, both in and out of costume. I look forward to reading about the evil lurking in the hearts of men, especially if this version of the Shadow is on the case” – NEWSARAMA
“I was completely pulled in by the character development Ennis poured into both The Shadow and Lamont Cranston.” – MAJOR SPOILERS

It's British steel against massed Communist hordes, as the last Battlefields series begins with a bang..
Praise for previous volumes of Garth Ennis’ Battlefields!

“Dynamite has a good series here with stories that Ennis truly seems passionate about.” – Comic Book Resources
“I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: no one in comics does World War II better than Garth Ennis...” – Comics Waiting Room

From the tales of Cinderalla, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid and Snow White comes Damsels!
In the aftermath of King Persine’s rousing speech against magic violence erupts on the streets of Caumont. As citizen battles citizen the Queens Talia, Rapunzel, and Belle are busy making plans for the real war to come. Rapa manages to
escape from the belly of the mighty wyrm only to find herself an unsuspecting guest in a mysterious palace of the night. But what exactly are her curious hosts’ intentions? Dare she stay for just one more dance?
Advanced review of Damsels #1 by Bleeding Cool!
“I was pretty much sold with the cover and premise. But now I’ve had a chance to read the final first issue of Damsels #1. And it totally works.
“There’s been a rash of fairytales-in-the-real-world of late from Fables to Grimm to Once Upon A Time, but this is not that. This is closer to Terry Pratchett’s
Discworld or Shrek, just not so played for laughs. We have trolls under bridges keeping the city moving, we have markets selling fairies as pets – though they can also be used as possible assassins. And rather than stories trying to play their way out, we instead have characters trying to make their own way in the world, while kings, queens and princesses get on with whatever they get on with.”
