(W) Max Bemis (A) Ransom Getty (CA) Jay Shaw WHY WE LOVE IT: After POLARITY, we just had to work with writer (and Say Anything lead singer) Max Bemis again, and his thrilling take on how our modern society could evolve into an evil empire is absolutely terrifying. WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT: Every fan of fiction is aware of the trope of the 'evil, sinister empire' i.e. the Empire in 'Star Wars.' Oftentimes, when we are introduced to these totalitarian establishments, they are already fully in power and it's up to our hero to bring back order and peace. However, in EVIL EMPIRE, we explore how that would unfold in a real-world setting. How close to the precipice are we right now in the world we live in? Would we let it happen? More specific to this tale: Would we secretly WANT it to happen? WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Told through the perspective of an underground rapper named Reese, Max Bemis' gripping story explores a scenario in which we watch our modern society gradually evolve (or is it devolve?) into an evil empire.

(W) Mark Waid (P) Barry Kitson (Color) Chris Sotomayer. YOU'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. For ten years, one man has relentlessly marched a path to world domination, dissolving governments, destroying armies, and demolishing any and all opposition to his Grand Empire--a monarchy which now spans the globe and holds six billion people in its totalitarian grip. His name is Golgoth, and he has achieved his fondest dream...only to realize that it's his worst nightmare. For now, in order to maintain his rule, Golgoth must wage constant war against a virtual phalanx of enemies: terrorist freedom fighters, alien invaders...even his own hand-picked Cabinet of Ministers, most of whom scheme constantly to overthrow their emperor. His allies are few; his foes, endless. Winning the crown of Earth is one thing. Holding onto it is another thing entirely. From the creative minds behind the best-selling JLA: YEAR ONE and KINGDOM: PLANET KRYPTON comes EMPIRE, Gorilla Comics' first ongoing monthly series. Written by Mark (KINGDOM COME, JLA, CAPTAIN AMERICA) Waid and illustrated by Barry (JLA: YEAR ONE, FLASH AND GREEN LANTERN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD) Kitson, with colors by Chris (PUNISHER) Sotomayor, EMPIRE changes the rules of action-adventure comics ... forever. Plus: An all-new exclusive prologue story to next month's Gorilla lauch: Crimson Plague by George (Avengers) Perez FC, 32pg Cover price $2.50.
