HARDBOILED CRIME MEETS SCI-FI IN RED CITY


Murder is interplanetary in December graphic novel from Image


Cal Talmage thought it would be a pretty simple job: find an ambassador’s daughter, who has disappeared in Mars Central City, and keep her safe until treaty negotiations between Venus and Mercury have ended. But the protagonist of the new Image Comics graphic novel RED CITY should have known better — nothing is ever simple in The Big Red, especially when you’re throwing yourself in the midst of rival alien mafias, political conspiracies, and the threat of interplanetary war.

Classic hardboiled suspense matches up with sci-fi glitz and grit in this graphic novel by Daniel Corey (MORIARTY), Anthony Diecidue (MORIARTY), and Mark Dos Santos (IMPERIAL). Inspired by classic noir stories, writer Corey places his conflicted hero in a complex world where right and wrong aren’t clear-cut.


“The hard-boiled noir hero’s struggle is a spiritual one, in my view,” said Corey in an interview about RED CITY at Flickering Myth. “He or she contends with forces greater than themselves, and must gather arcane facts and clues in order to find their way out of the maze. And the results are usually gray and ambiguous.”


RED PLANET collects #1-4 of the series, plus the new short story MORIARTY: ENDGAME by Corey and Diecidue. It will be in comic book stores on December 3, in bookstores on December 16, and is available now for pre-order.

Bad Comet will also be renaming Wild: Serengeti to Life of the Serengeti due to trademark issues and to keep their nature themed games tied together. Life of the Amazonia is not a sequel  to Wild: Serengeti as the game is completely different in every way except that it carries on the beautiful Animal meeples everyone loved from Wild: Serengeti. As it is a game set in the Amazon Rainforest, Life of the Amazonia will invite you into the lush jungle of the Amazon to join in the mission of building an ecologically rich jungle. Every player will have their very own beautifully crafted jungle in front of their very eyes once the game concludes.
