Label #3853899004

Not First Printing variant cover. Story by Matt Kindt. Art by Doug Braithwaite and Diego Rodriguez. Cover by Lewis LaRosa and Laura Martin. Back cover by Matt Kindt. Seventy-seven years ago, the United States unlocked the key to defeating the Axis powers, but, in their desperation to end the war, created a far more powerful threat: ENIAC (Electronic Numerator Integrator and Computer), the worlds first supercomputer. ENIAC's calculations proved vital to turning the tide against Germany and Japan – until it ordered the second atomic bomb to be dropped on Nagasaki without any human order or approval. America had inadvertently created the first artificial intelligence without ever realizing the full extent of its abilities...or its ambitions. For the more than 50 years that followed, ENIAC manipulated global affairs from the shadows, waging a cold war that pitted spy against spy, nation against nation...until it went dark and disappeared from view. Now, years later, an encrypted countdown has just been detected in Earth's satellite network and mankind only has three days left before ENIAC executes its endgame. With few options and even less time, the Secretary of Defense has just given two covert operatives the most important mission in human history: kill ENIAC…before it kills us. 52 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $3.99.

Art imitates life; sometimes, life imitates art. Under rare and ominous conditions, the two become inextricably wound into each other, a snake eating its own tail. In ENIGMA, it's even stranger than that - comic art comes to life. Enigma is an existential super-hero, an extraordinary man in a less than extraordinary world. Enigma is a character from Michael Smith's favorite comic book. Michael has left behind his old world - home, job, girlfriend - to find the Enigma, and to find the world within himself. It is a strange, terrifying, exhilarating journey of self-discovery, one that may well be Michael Smith's last chance to find meaning in a seemingly meaningless world. Written by Peter Milligan, with art by Duncan Fegredo and full-process color by Sherilyn van Valkenburgh. Painted cover by Fegredo with an added fifth metallic color. Suggested for Mature Readers. Deluxe Format. Cover price $2.50.
