Are you Near-Death Experienced? Framed architect-turned-thief Jericho Way has discovered he’s a Resurrectionist, one of a select group of people who can not only remember their past lives, but become them. Two groups are now after his services—the Sojourn Corporation, which wants to exploit his powers for mysterious purposes, and a motley crew of modern-day tomb robbers who have been trying to pull the same impossible heist for 3,000 years—and if Jericho joins them, he may steal back his own future! Recent praise for New York Times best-selling author Fred Van Lente: “Van Lente gives readers just enough of everything to satisfy curiosity without overwhelming while extending an open invitation to come back for more.”— Comic Book Resources “Fred Van Lente and his team start off slow, but quickly burst forward in a dead sprint . . . It seems that our favorite barbarian is still in very good hands.”—Newsarama Participating retailers can contact the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund directly to order, and readers can look for Resurrectionists #1 at their local comic shop on November 12! And don’t forget, Fred Van Lente’s The Complete Silencers and Action Philosophers release in September and October, respectively!
