Archive

June 22 2005, Toronto, Canada – Speakeasy Comics today announced that a new softcover edition of Jamie Delano’s 2020 Visions will be available in August from the publisher.

This new trade collection will present the material in paperback for the first time, features high-quality black and white reproduction and a cover price of $19.99!

2020 VISIONS TPB – Jamie Delano (W); Frank Quitely (A), Steve Pugh (A), Warren Pleece (A), and James Romberger (A).

Jamie Delano‘s graphic novel tour de force follows the lives of a disjointed family, struggling to survive in the morally and socially decadent United States of 2020. From symbiotic venereal diseases to exclusive human breeding facilities, the future never looked so bleak, or so hopeful.

This first-ever trade paperback collection of this critically acclaimed masterpiece also includes an afterword by the author and an introduction by Richard (Metrophage, Accelerate) Kadrey as well as featuring the art of 4 distinct and accomplished artists: Frank Quitely, Steve Pugh, Warren Pleece, and James Romberger.

Publisher’s Weekly describes 2020 Visions as “a darkly daffy evocation of a plague that makes its disenfranchised victims sex-mad before it kills them, set in the desiccated New York City of 2020.”

As Curt Corey accepts his obligation to protect an ancient Egyptian artifact, he inadvertently begins an epic adventure that will decide his destiny and the fate of the planet. Wargod, the avenging son of Osiris, is resurrected and sent to Earth to continue his age old conflict with the nefarious god Sutekh and protect all of mankind from his impending evil. Wargod is our last hope…can he stop Sutekh and his army of soulless minions? Will the great beast Apep devour all of humanity?

One thing is for sure – the Gods are coming!

Created and Written by George T. Singley (Mutation, Shocking Gun Tales, Headcase) with Artwork by Freddie E. Williams II (Shocking Gun Tales, Chance of a Lifetime, Project EON), Wargod is an epic tale of betrayal, powerlust, and ultimately abolition.
