    This is a good one, folks, and it has my highest recommendation." -Jonathan Hickman, X-Men, The Black Monday Murders SERIES PREMIERE "Superpowered." You have certain preconceptions. They're incorrect. Here, that word has a specific technical definition. Namely, "any individual with the destructive capacity of the nuclear arsenal of the USA." There are six such people on Earth. The planet's survival relies on them never coming into conflict. Come dance to the ticking of the doomsday clock with KIERON GILLEN (THE WICKED + THE DIVINE, DIE) and CASPAR WIJNGAARD (HOME SICK PILOTS, ALL AGAINST ALL). The eternal fight against fighting starts now. Early praise for The Power Fantasy: "I can tell a couple pages into a book if it has legs-if the writing's good, it the art is well done, and if it's going to find an audience. However, when I got to end of the first issue of Power Fantasy I knew that I was looking at the better version of that. A book constructed with artfulness and nuance and a care that borders on being obsessive. This is a good one, folks, and it has my highest recommendation." -Jonathan Hickman, X-Men, The Black Monday Murders "A beautiful technicolor nightmare of trying to hold a straight razor to God's throat." -Marguerite Bennett, Witchblade, M.O.M.: Mother of Madness "The jaw-dropping climax of the first issue takes an already great read and shoots this book into the stratosphere. An absolute must-read comic by two of the absolute best in the business." -James Tynion IV, The Department of Truth, Something Is Killing The Children "If you like your comics full of big ideas, laced with dark humor and the unnerving sense that the end of the world is just one family squabble away, this one's for you." -GamesRadar "A rich and rewarding story about existential questions when super powered gods walk amongst us... In a world where nuclear war is still possible and war rages overseas, The Power Fantasy feels well-timed and apt." -AIPT "I got to read the first issue and it is, unsurprisingly, extraordinary. Infuriatingly so. A sleek narrative bullet that rides the slipstream of superhero expectations to arrive with a jarring impact, all parts of it working flawlessly together." -Jed McKay, Moon Knight, Avengers "A phenomenal debut with everything you love about comics. Great story/art/letters/design & my favorite colors in a long while. The Power Fantasy is an epic that will blow the doors off comic shops." -Gerry Duggan, X-Men "The Power Fantasy does for superhero comics what Saga did for Sci-fi. Features amazing characters, one hell of a crunchy hook & features career best art from Caspar. This is going to be the start of something BIG." -Christian Ward "It is just breathtaking, the story is incredible and the art is simply PHENOMENAL. Congratulations, guys, it is simply beautiful." -Lucas Werneck, Immortal X-Men "Kieron sent over issue #1 of The Power Fantasy, and it's incredible as expected. There's a quiet confidence to this, the first chapter of what is clearly meant to be a novel in comics. And Caspar's ascension to comics godhood continues apace." -Aditya Bidikar, The Department of Truth, Worldtr33 "I had the chance to read the first issue, and it's amazing. The lore is deep and we want to know more, the characters are originals." -Margaux Saltel, Le Royaume d'Apr s, Star Wars Adventures "If you're missing WicDiv, this is the next album from one of those pop stars, like all the greats returning to the same themes but with added 2024. And Caspar rocks in a profoundly different way that will nevertheless resonate with you. This is the new Greatest Hits collection." -Paul Cornell, Saucer Country "Just read this first issue again-and this is not a book to miss! Kieron and Caspar have united for the next banger take on modern superheroics, just as dynamic and provocative as the modern world that calls to us all." -Steve Orlando, Scarlet Witch "You already know you should buy everything Kieron writes. You don't need me to tell. But here's a reminder." -Joanne Starrer, Total Supplex of a Heart "Great takes on superpowers are fairly common, but The Power Fantasy is something altogether more audacious and compelling: an ORIGINAL take.." -Alex Paknadel, All Against All, Carnage
