WildStorm: The Bleed

Those of you opening up a new WildStorm book this morning are in for a treat: a first look at NORTH 40, a new miniseries written by Aaron Williams (PS238, The Nordwick Chronicles) and beautifully illustrated by Fiona Staples (SECRET HISTORY OF THE AUTHORITY: HAWKSMOOR). Who knew tentacle monsters and demon-bat-teenagers could look so good?

For those of you who prefer to do your reading on a computer screen, here’s a look:

Somewhere in Midwestern America was a place called Conover County. When the old book was opened, and the runes therein used in haste and ignorance, a place of farms, simple folk, and small-town dreams became a den of monsters and nightmare. NORTH 40 is the story of those who survived and came to confront an even greater evil on the horizon – one that wouldn’t just consume their flesh, but their souls as well. Heroes arise with power to bring against the dark: Wyatt, an unwilling protector of his former tormentors; Amanda, an apprentice to forgotten arts; and Sheriff Morgan, whose bonds with Conover County go back farther than even he can remember. See where it started, and watch where it’s all going in NORTH 40 #1.
