After a few conversations today with Image and Sean Murphy (Gordon if you’re nasty) \u00a0we’ve decided to not artificially bump the orders on TOKYO GHOST #1 with a bunch of variants. The general consensus is that we’re doing harm to the industry with this tactic. A tactic we’ve all used on many other books and always felt a bit off about. Sean has already done a number of covers, so we’ll be offering an “A” cover and “B” cover, both by Sean, and that’s it. TOKYO GHOST #1 is a double-sized first issue and ships in September.<\/p>\n

General info:<\/p>\n

The Isles of Los Angles 2089 – Humanity is addicted to technology, a population of unemployed leisure seekers, blissfully distracted from toxic contamination, who borrow, steal, and kill to buy their next digital fix. Getting a virtual buzz is the only thing left to live for. It\u2019s the biggest industry, the only<\/u> industry, the drug everyone needs, and gangsters run it all.<\/p>\n

And who do these gangsters turn to when they need their rule enforced? Constables Led Dent and Debbie Decay. This duo is about to be given a job that will force them out of the familiar squalor of Los Angels to take down the last tech-less country on Earth: The Garden Nation of Tokyo.<\/p>\n

Bestselling writer Rick Remender (Black Science, Deadly Class<\/em>) and superstar art team Sean Murphy (Chrononauts, Punk Rock Jesus<\/em>) and Matt Hollingsworth (Hawkeye, Wytches<\/em>) examine our growing addiction\u00a0to technology while thirsting for a nature we continue to destroy.<\/p>\n
