New Releases by Darick Robertson

The revolutionary Batman anthology is back for a new era! Legends of the Dark Knight returns with comics’ biggest creators putting their own spin on Gotham City, in unconventional stories you won’t see anywhere else. In 1989, riding the crest of Batmania fueled by the live-action film, DC launched Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight, an anthology series where comics creators from across all genres presented their unique interpretation of the Batman mythos, in multi-part stories separate from the pop culture icon’s more mainstream ongoing adventures. In 2021, Legends of the Dark Knight returned—bringing its creative spirit into a new era, buoyed by writers and artists including Darick Robertson, Stephanie Phillips, Max Dunbar, Brandon Thomas, Giannis Milonogiannis, Becky Cloonan, Dike Ruan, Matthew Rosenberg, Cian Tormey, Brandon Easton, Karl Mostert, and more. The new Legends of the Dark Knight starts with “Bad Night, Good Knight,” a story written and illustrated by The Boys and Transmetropolitan co-creator Darick Robertson, featuring some of Batman’s most iconic villains, including The Joker, the Riddler, Penguin, and Mr. Freeze, as Batman races against time to stop a deadly chemical from being unleashed in Gotham. This volume collects Legends of the Dark Knight #1-8.

A gritty Western standoff between a cop and a murderer.

"This is going to hurt. In a world where costumed heroes soar through the sky and masked vigilantes prowl the night, someone''s got to make sure the ''supes'' don''t get out of line. And someone will. Billy Butcher, Wee Hughie, Mother''s Milk, The Frenchman, and The Female are The Boys: A CIA-backed team of very dangerous people, each one dedicated to the struggle against the most lethal force on Earth - superpower. Some superheroes have to be watched. Some have to be controlled. And some of them - sometimes - need to be taken out of the picture. That''s when you call in The Boys. A grim personal tragedy starts Hughie on the trail to what he hopes will be justice, but soon turns out to be something else altogether: a world of unimaginable depravity. His guide is the mysterious Billy Butcher, a man with an agenda of his own for this superhuman dystopia. Together with MM, Frenchie and the Female, they discover the secrets of Teenage Kix, the Tek-Knight, Swingwing and- most terrifying of all - Earth''s mightiest heroes, the team of ultra-powerful supes known as The Seven. An international conspiracy of lethal proportions soon looms, as Hughie rapidly finds himself in over his head...with no way out."-- Back cover.

Nick Sax è un ex sbirro corrotto, diventato detective privato. Manca poco a Natale e Nick non è che stia benissimo. Quando gli appare Happy, un cavallino azzurro, che con voce querula gli dice che c’è una bambina nelle mani di un sadico e che Nick la deve salvare, l’uomo pensa di avere le allucinazioni. Ci metterà un po’ a capire che Happy è sì un “amico immaginario”, ma è l’amico immaginario della bambina in pericolo. Grant Morrisoncrea una storia distopica e ai limiti dell’assurdismo che, per il prodigio del suo talento, funziona come un orologio svizzero. Darick Robertson la illustra, da par suo, con uno stile che vi farà accapponare la pelle per il ribrezzo, a tratti. Questo romanzo grafico, uscito originariamente nel 2014, è diventato una serie TV la cui prima stagione debutta in Italia su Netflix il 26 aprile. Per l’occasione, BAO ne offre una versione rinnovata, in formato più grande, identico all’originale americano, cartonata, con dieci pagine di fumetto in più e un nuovo apparato di extra a fine volume. In copertina, nella posa della copertina originale, Christopher Meloni, colonna portante di Law & Order – Unità Vittime Speciali.

Bienvenue dans la ville où tout peut arriver. Surtout le pire. Bienvenue dans un futur pas si éloigné que ça du nôtre, bienvenue à Repo-city, la ville où tout le monde est un salopard, y compris les réparateurs d’air conditionné. Dans cet enfer cyberpunk, on rencontre Butch, un gros bourrin, et son pote Gun, une arme à feu génétiquement modifiée, grande gueule et dopée aux drogues les plus dures. Cette paire de brutes aussi improbable que violente va essayer de propulser Butch lui-même sur le devant de la scène criminelle de Repo City. Finies les heures passées à réparer les stations de refroidissement, Butch va enfin pouvoir se laisser aller à ses instincts les plus vils. Sauf qu’évidemment, ça ne va pas se passer comme aimeraient nos deux acolytes... Après le culte Transmetropolitan, Darick Robertson s’associe au cinéaste Adam Egypt Mortimer et nous plonge dans une nouvelle métropole futuro-psychédélique où se mêlent SF, polar, pulp et anticipation dans un cocktail nihiliste parfaitement jubilatoire. Un « buddy movie » grand-guignolesque et ultra violent à la manière de The Boys qui emprunte autant à la littérature de William Gibson qu’à Judge Dredd.

Lorsqu''un de ses contrats tourne mal, il se retrouve avec une balle dans le bras, les flics et la mafia sur son dos... et il doit poursuivre un horrible tueur d''enfants. C''est à ce moment précis de sa vie qu''une licorne bleue apparaît et les ennuis commencent vraiment pour lui. ".
