STEAMPUNK CLASSIC FIVE FISTS OF SCIENCE BACK IN PRINT THIS SEPTEMBER WITH A NEW PAPERBACK EDITION
Featuring a brand-new cover 
PORTLAND, OR, 07/27/2017 — Matt Fraction (SEX CRIMINALS, SOLID STATE) and artist Steven Sanders (THROWAWAYS, Our Love is Real) will release a new paperback edition of FIVE FISTS OF SCIENCE this September.

True story: in 1899, Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla decided to end war forever by joining forces to rid the world of evil. With Twain's connections and Tesla's inventions, they went into business selling world peace. The tale of what unfolded next can only now be told: the duo collided with Edison and Morgan, an evil science cabal merging the Black Arts and the Industrial Age.

Turn-of-the-century New York City sets the stage for a titanic battle over the very fate of mankind in this graphic novel, back in print once again this fall.

FIVE FISTS OF SCIENCE (Diamond code: JUL170742, ISBN: 978-1-5343-0436-9) arrives in comic book stores Wednesday, September 13th and bookstores Tuesday, September 19th. The final order cutoff deadline for comics retailers is Monday, August 7th.

FIVE FISTS OF SCIENCE is available for preorder via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Indiebound, and Indigo.
