A new beginning at the dawn of a new century . . . as the age-old battle between darkness and light rages once more! Master storytellers Cullen Bunn (Ghostlore) and Brian Hurtt (The Midnite Show) return to their acclaimed occult odyssey for the next prestige-format showdown celebrating 15 years of THE SIXTH GUN!

With the forces of darkness coming together to trap and destroy the hunting party as they race against the evil cabal, the fate of reality hangs in the balance. The nightmares of creatures-that-should-not-be fuel a dire plot to bring the Six back into the world. And a mysterious figure—a knight from another time, from another world—strides into the Old West, a flaming blade in his hand . . . Thirty years after the events of the Eisner Award– nominated epic, The Sixth Gun is reborn . . . and hell follows with it!

The Biker Mice’s Mars mission continues to unfold in the next octane-pumping blockbuster from hotshot writer Melissa Flores (Power Rangers Prime) and full-throttle artist Daniel Gete (Skin Police)!

As Vinnie, Throttle, and Modo transport the renegade scientist—who may hold the answers to the Plutarkians’ Mars attacks—across the desert on their way back to Brimstone, they find themselves under attack from a deadly subterranean menace.

Meanwhile, at the spaceport, a classic Biker Mice villain arrives, making his series debut in style. And when HARD ROCK comes to town, the motorbike-riding mouse bros find themselves caught between a hard place and, well. . . him!

Full Art Variant (1:10) by Christian Ward

“I’m saying all of that was never real in the first place. It is not that you will cease to exist, Marcus, it is that you never really existed in the first place. That life was always an illusion. Your dreams were always temporary. Your memories were always an invention. But you know, let’s be honest, that’s how it is for most people, when you get right down to it. You think you have this future. You think you have this past. But everything is always going away. Everything is always in the process of coming to nothing. But what I’m telling you, Marcus, is that I am different. For some cosmic reasons impossible to understand, I matter. I have a chance to save the universe . . . and you have a chance to save me. That is more—so much more—than most people ever get.” —Benjamin J. Carp, novelist (Deceased. Robot? Ghost? Alien?)

From Philip K. Award–winning writer Ben H. Winters (EC’s Cruel Universe) and extraordinary artist Leomacs (Basketful of Heads), the prestige-format examination of a dead science-fiction icon’s unexpected return to Earth concludes with a mind-bending meditation of existence itself.

Homage Variant (1:20) by Brian Level

THE END IS HERE! Dave Hill (Tasteful Nudes) and Artyom Topilin’s (EC’s Cruel Universe) insanely autobiographical epic of a comedian-turned-metal-band-frontman who tested the patience of Norway’s most extreme black metal butchers is sure to end on a high note!

As Monte’s life hangs in the balance—held hostage by Lucifuge, the leader of Dave’s Norwegian archnemeses who’ve traveled halfway around the world to confront him—Dave and Witch Taint must prove their music to be more grim and brutal than anything ever heard by humans ears . . . or possibly be savagely murdered in cold blood if they can’t get it together. Talk about pressure! Dark Regards comes to its devilish denouement!
