| A battle beyond
the stars didn`t end quite as imagined. Legendary cosmic guardian and former
Green Lantern Hal Jordan has unknowingly left a horrific legacy to the
future. When Hal vowed to respect all life, he probably wasn`t thinking
of the nasty, acid-dripping, murdering Aliens-- and because he spared these
vile creatures, he doomed the lives of countless others years later. Now
it`s up to current GL Kyle Rayner and the remnants of the defunct Green
Lantern Corp. to clean up the mess made by his predecessor. But Kyle is
still struggling with the mantle of Green Lantern that he`s inherited.
Further, he`s struggling with the definition of heroism in a day and age
when Hal`s nobility is all too rare. What Kyle`s about to experience in
the darkest regions of space will change him forever...if it doesn`t kill
him first. |

From Dark Horse Comics
Florida-based writer Ron
Marz began his writing career as a journalist but traded in his press badge
for comic-book writing in 1990 when he determined that it was more fun
to make up stories than report them. In the last eleven years, Marz has
written extensively for publishers including DC, Marvel, Cross Gen, Image,
Acclaim, and Dark Horse. He is notorious among fans of the DC Universe
for co-creating the new Green Lantern, Kyle Rayner, who battles against
the acid-blooded Aliens of sci-fi film lore in the hit cross-over graphic
novel adventure, Green Lantern vs. Aliens, co-published by Dark Horse and
DC Comics. Marz' other comics credits include work on Silver Surfer, Superboy,
Manowar, DC vs. Marvel, and Dark Horse's Star Wars Tales and Star Wars:
Darth Maul. |

HULLABALOO! |
| by Mike Allred |
Paperback: 96 pages
Dark Horse Comics
Co-published with DC Comics

$8.95
|
| The Man of
Steel meets the Man of Madness as two of comics’ most unique
and revolutionary heroes cross over (and how)! In each of their respective
universes,
Superman and Madman are involved in scientific
experiments, the results of which propel the unsuspecting superbeings into
one another’s worlds. The only thing is, each takes half of the other with
him —creating two confused heroes and one big Hullabaloo! |
| The
New
York Daily News calls The Superman/Madman Hullabaloo!
"...a
contemporary classic!"
.
Can
you imagine a Superman comic book in which another superhero, while
sitting on a swing in a park, asks Superman if he believes in God?
If you can, you might think it would be very difficult to pull off without
being entirely silly (in a bad way). Well, give Mike Allred a great
big prize for his wonderfully enjoyable and off-center comic book The
Superman Madman Hullabaloo! Not only is there a conversation about
the existence of God, this story features mutant underground street beatniks,
a super zombie, a health-food food fight, and a skyscraper with legs. That
Allred
could get away with writing and drawing such a subversive take on one of
the most tightly controlled characters in comics is, as
Matt Wagner
says in his introduction, a testament to the "Allred chutzpah."
Perhaps you are wondering what sort of hullabaloo this is. Mike Allred's
lovable hero, Madman—a chap whose real identity is unknown even
to himself, and who has no real superpowers—runs into Superman.
Literally, in a cross-dimensional vehicle, he runs into Superman.
That
collision leaves them both a bit mixed up, and they're going to have to
go from Snap City to Metropolis and back to solve this one.
It's no wonder the back cover proclaims this book is "more bizarre than
Bizarro."
