Volume Four of
award-winning author Warren Ellis' ongoing web comic, Freakangels,
is here! This installment collects the entire fourth arc of the
post-apocalyptic saga into 144 gorgeous, full-colour pages. Twenty-three
years ago, twelve strange children were born in England at exactly the
same moment. Six years ago, the world ended. Today, eleven strange
23-year-olds are living in and defending Whitechapel, maybe the last
real settlement in flooded London.
They've made a new friend, and together they successfully defended
their home from raiders--but the post-apocalyptic drowned London that
the eleven Freakangels survive in is never a safe place, and never
surrounded by friends. In fact, there's a serial killer stalking in
their midst, and one of their own has broken their most valued rule. In Freakangels
Volume 4, as the clan faces danger from nearly every direction,
it's time to really take a look at what happened six years ago. Back
when there were twelve Freakangels. Back when they were all running for
their lives. Because a lot of things have changed, but maybe not as
many as they thought...
Ellis' ongoing story of a flooded London is beautifully illustrated
in jaw-dropping detail by Paul Duffield, and every page is as much a
work of art as it is a compelling and multi-layered story. This fourth
collection comeswith an all-new
cover by series artist Paul Duffield and is a Dual-Signed Hardcover edition, limited to only 1,000
copies, signed by both Warren Ellis and Paul Duffield.
