When a lost armada of Roman soldiers arrives a thousand years before Columbus, they don’t seek to conquer and exterminate, but instead set up a cooperative society with the indigenous peoples that radically alters the timeline of the Americas… and the rest of the world.
That’s premise of Dark Horse’s new graphic novel Rome West – from writers Brian Wood and Justin Giampaoli and artist Andrea Mutti.
RoboCop: Citizens Arrest #1 main cover by Nimit Malavia – Courtesy of BOOM! Studios.
In the decades since the RoboCop program first began, corporations have taken over public services and the government—and law enforcement is the biggest private contract of all. Traditional police forces no longer exist as all citizens are encouraged—and rewarded—to spy on their neighbors.
There is only one authority on the streets: ROBOCOP.
ROBOCOP: citizen’s Arrest #1 will be in comics shops in april.
As announced on the Dark Horse: CLASSIFIED! panel at New York Comic Con, writer Brian Wood (The Massive, Rebels) and artist Tristan Jones (Mad Max: Fury Road, TMNT) will take on the xenomorphs just in time to celebrate the anniversary of Aliens with a new ongoing series—Aliens: Defiance!
Brian Wood has been assigned the writing gig for the Dark Horse miniseries EVE: Valkryie, which is based on the video game in development by CCP Games. Art will be by Eduardo Francisco. The first issue is scheduled to appear on June 3rd, 2015.
