Baghdad, 2003. The reign of Saddam Hussein is over. The Americans are in command. And no one is in control. Former cop turned military contractor Christopher Henry knows that better than anyone. He's in the country to train up a new Iraqi police force, and one of his recruits has just been murdered. With civil authority in tatters and dead bodies clogging the streets, Chris is the only person in the Green Zone with any interest in finding out who killed him-and why. Chris' inquiry brings him first to Sofia, an American-raised Iraqi who now sits on the governing council, and then to Nassir, a grizzled veteran of Saddam's police force-and probably the last real investigator left in Baghdad. United by death but divided by conflicting loyalties, the three must help each other navigate the treacherous landscape of post-invasion Iraq in order to hunt down the killers. But are their efforts really serving justice-or a much darker agenda? Inspired by his real-life experiences as a CIA operations officer in Iraq, writer Tom King (BATMAN) teams with artist Mitch Gerads to deliver a wartime crime thriller like no other in THE SHERIFF OF BABYLON VOL. 1: BANG. BANG. BANG., collecting issues #1-6 of their groundbreaking Vertigo series.

ALL FALL DOWN L.A. was once the City of Angels, but that was before the Great Quake came and shattered everything about her that was civilized. In the aftermath, two new cities grew up from the rubble-one of gleaming towers and untold luxury for the haves, and one of barbed wire and grinding misery for the have-nots. Ringed by high walls and merciless guards, New Angeles is now an island of wealth in a sea of poverty. Outside its borders, a new generation of Angelenos fights for scraps in the rubble while trying desperately to find a way through the fences. Inside, the privileged few have refined their brutality and fused it with old Hollywood's greatest invention: celebrity culture. Broadcast in ultra-high definition, biomechanically enhanced gladiators known as Suiciders battle to the death in high-tech arenas. Their duels are a visceral reminder to the world of the power wielded by New Angeles' corporate masters. For rich and poor alike, the Suiciders are legends. But like the city they inhabit, their glory is built on a graveyard-and as those bodies rot, the foundations they carry threaten to crack and splinter back into chaos. Collects SUICIDERS #1-6 and SUICIDERS: KINGS OF HELL.A. #1-6.

Now she works as a beat cop in her hometown of Effigy Mound, Ohio, where she's about to catch a case as crazy as anything the Star Cops ever faced.

Someone who knows the strange truth behind Star Cops' fiction and the reclusive writer who created it. Someone who knows that fandom is the new true religion. Someone who knows that God is an alien life-form, and that real stars shine on forever… Co-creators Tim Seeley and Marley Zarcone put the "cult" back in "pop culture" with EFFIGY: IDLE WORSHIP-a small-town supernova of sex, sci-fi and celebrity!
