JULY 2010
One of the most critically acclaimed recent superhero
stories is finally collected along with all-new material! All seven of
the original issues of ABSOLUTION are here as well as a huge cover
gallery and an all-new Crime Files segment with additional information
on John Dusk's allies and most feared villains! You've seen Christos
Gage's work for Marvel, Wildstorm, IDW, and others, but you've never
seen his imagination unleashed with absolutely no restrictions... until now. ABSOLUTION introduces John Dusk, a superhero in a world where
they're a sanctioned arm of law enforcement. But this veteran hero has
been scarred by his exposure to man's infinite capacity for evil, and
he's seen one too many perpetrators escape justice. One day he crosses
the line... lets a murderer die... and discovers it feels good.
Surrounded by sociopaths, both human and superhuman, who he knows will
prey on others if they're not stopped -- permanently -- how far will he
go, knowing every step he takes puts him further on a collision course
with his teammates Alpha and The Servant, not to mention his homicide
detective girlfriend? Drawing on his experience writing for TV crime
dramas like Law & Order: SVU, and his years of acclaimed work on
comics like G.I. Joe: Cobra, StormWatch: PHD, and Avengers: The
Initiative, Gage and artist Roberto Viacava bring you a riveting,
no-punches-pulled saga that fans of shows like The Shield and Dexter, or
comics such as Powers and Sleeper, won't be able to put down. John Dusk
just wants to be forgiven... but he doesn't want to stop.
