Polybagged with card - "By Their Own Bootstraps" In 1839, an alien starliner malfunctioned and exploded. A jettisoned life pod crashed in a cotton field in the Deep South. The pod was equipped with a unique survival mechanism that was programmed to configure its passenger's genetic structure to match whatever life form it first encountered. And so it happened that Miriam, the slave who discovered the pod, found inside a baby boy with her mother's eyes. Today, the alien is still alive, in the guise of successful attorney Augustus Freeman IV of Dakota. Still marooned, he waits for Earth's technology to catch up to his life pod's. Secretly possessing superpowers, he quietly helps people in need, until recent events in the city of Dakota - and the arguments of a certain opinionated young woman - compel him to become more than just a silent friend to the community. He dons a costume to become Icon, the hero of Dakota. Written by Dwayne McDuffie, with art by Mark Bright and Mike Gustovich. Cover by Denys Cowan and Jimmy Palmiotti. Includes a 3-page preview of Static. #1P contains a 13" x 20" 4-color poster of the cover, a trading card produced in cooperation with SkyBox International, and one set of a 4-part, 16-piece color mural. Cover price $2.95.

Ever wonder who's calling the shots? Ever wonder if those in control are reviewing all the resumes? If not, consider the case of Kid Eternity. Everyone knows someone like the Kid - the dude who seems just too cool to live. In his case, though, it's true. Kid Eternity is dead, though he tries not to let that cramp his style. In a lot of ways, he's a pretty typical teenager - more interested in the world in his head than in the job at hand, which is to help humanity raise its consciousness and climb the next rung of evolution's ladder. Okay, so the Kid can call on anyone in all history to aid him in his quest, but there we go assuming the Kid's going to notice it when he needs help. The Kid has this small denial problem. When your whole (after)life is just one damned thing after another, you tend to be pretty jaded, and things have to get awfully weird before the Kid gets moving. This eccentric ongoing series combines throwaway snippings and clippings of philosophy, psychology, mythology, religion and things that go "bump" in the night, all within the framework of a fast-moving story. Written by Ann Nocenti, with art by Sean Phillips. Painted cover by Phillips with an added fifth metallic color. Suggested for Mature Readers. New Format. Cover price $1.95.
