DDP RELEASES DECEMBER SOLICITATIONS

New Devil's Due releases include 'Dread Force' from former Transformers artists and 'Zen Intergalactic Ninja' by Joe Casey



Chicago, IL. (September 29, 2008) – Devil's Due Publishing gains three brand new series in December, as the publisher announces a packed catalog by former Transformers creators, and all-star writers Joe Casey and Rick Remender. Dawn of the Dread Force, Zen Intergalactic Ninja, and The Corps! bolster an already thriving library of creator-owned and licensed titles.



Dawn of the Dread Force #0 sets off a blockbuster-scaled mini-series about a post-apocalyptic world where humans and gladiator machines are at war. After creating a workforce of powerful robots, the mechanical giants rebel against their creators. The book comes courtesy of a group of former Transformers artists. The team includes former Transformers Armada artist James Raiz, Gerardo Sandoval (Tomb Raider), Rob Armstrong (Transformers: G1), coloring wizard Danimation (Street Fighter, X-Men Unlimited), Simon "Seed" Bork, Misty "Sayda" Coats, and writer Kurt Hathaway (Supreme).



Also launching in December will be DDP's Zen Intergalactic Ninja series from writer Joe Casey (Iron Man: Enter the Mandarin, Gødland) with artist Lee Ferguson (Green Arrow/Black Canary, Halloween: 30 Years of Terror). The new series brings back the classic extraterrestrial martial arts master as he finds himself alone on Earth and in search of a partner. Issue #1 features spectacular re-mastered cover art by Mike Mignola (Hellboy) and another cover by Lee Ferguson.



Fear Agent writer Rick Remender brings issue #1 of his new series The Corps! in December, redefining the military team comic in an edgy suspense-filled world built from the toy line by Lanard. Featuring artwork by Mike Penick and brilliant cover artist Tony Shasteen, The Corps! promises gut-wrenching plot-twists that will leave readers guessing at the bottom of every page.
