The Crisis Command, failed Presidents from across the Multiverse, tried doing things the old way, keeping secrets like they were still in the Oval Office.

And neither approach got them any closer to stopping the creep of complete universal destruction. To save us all, the Crisis Command must give up everything they know, from their ego to their idealism, and go on a journey of rediscovery as the clock ticks towards annihilation. Standing in their way is the Extinction Society and their leader the Executrix, an organization convinced that the only reasonable act for civilization of self-destruction. To survive, the Crisis Command has to be something more than superhero, they have to be something better...and inspire us all to do the same so we can all meet tomorrow, together.

Thirty years ago, the world watched in horror as THE PATRON, a hero sent as humanitarian aid from a different dimension, went punch for punch with WOE, a primordial beast and a perfect match for our mighty protector. In the end, hero and villain alike fell...but the Patron returned - and continues to defend us to this day! At least, that's what we've all been told. The truth is, the Patron died that day along with Woe. The UN replaced the Patron with a Reploid, designed to mimic the real Patron and continue on his mission of protection. Today, the Patron Reploid is secretly piloted by an elite team - a team prepared for anything... except for the death of one of their own. A deep dive into the underside of the superhero mythos as only writer Steve Orlando (KILL A MAN, Midnighter, Martian Manhunter) can tell it. Illustrated by Patrick Piazzalunga (Siege, X-Factor).

Turns out, Alan isn't the picture-perfect sugar daddy, but a sociopath responsible for the disappearance of numerous young gay men. "Scott" isn't really looking for a boyfriend, but revenge for a fallen friend...unfortunately for Scott, he may have underestimated Alan and when he finds one of Alan's victims still alive, his mission swerves from one of revenge to a rescue From Jeffrey Dahmer to Ed Buck...to the Toronto gay murders...authorities have a pattern of overlooking crimes against gay men until it's far too late. In PARTY & PREY, we match this unfortunate truth with the hard-to-believe, but real-life extremes that gay power brokers like Peter Thiel go to in attempts to preserve their youth...creating a gay revenge thriller with a true-crime twist that flips our sympathies just when we start to feel bad for Alan. Think a gay Get Out crossed with Criminal, Stray Bullets, or Dead Inside.
