Can the embodiment of our highest aspirations exist side-by-side with our all-too human failings or will the gulf between what we wish we could be and what we are destroy us?

Created by acclaimed musician Dave Stewart (Eurythmics). Written by Jeff Parker with artwork by Ashish Padlekar. Do you experience missing time? Predict strangers' dreams?

Awaking from one of these blackouts, Ian finds himself in Moscow and stumbles into the burlesque club Deja Vu, bluffing his way into a job as a dream in...

From the mind of legendary creator Grant Morrison. The Pandavas are routing their cousins the Kauravas on the first day of the great war, until Prince Duryodhana’s command ends the day in apocalyptic fire. But not too long ago, the two clans were on the brink of peace, when Yudish approached his cousin to end the war before it started.
From legendary creator Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Batman & Robin, The Invisibles), comes the first chapter in his newest creation. 18 Days is the story of three generations of super-warriors, meeting for the final battle of their age, a climactic war that concludes the age of the gods and begins the age of man. "This is not a Lord of the Rings or a Star Wars where the good guys win because they are right. The good guys in 18 Days are forced to cheat and lie and break rules to win. Although it has fantastic, mythic trappings, this is a very modern story of realpolitik and the failure of ideals in the face of harsh truth." ¨C Grant Morrison
