21st September 2009 / Wasteland / On Sale

If we’d tried to plan it this way, it would never have happened, but happening it is; both issue #26 and the first Apocalyptic Edition hardback of WASTELAND hit stores this week.

Issue #26 kicks off a brand new story arc, “The Enemy Within”, which takes us through the six months in Newbegin following the Sand-Eater attack, and Golden Voice’s call for Sunner freedom. Each issue will focus on a different character, and we start with Yan, son of the late ex-Primate Heddor.

The order code is JUN091043, and here’s the solicit:

BRAND NEW STORY ARC! Six months of chaos and turmoil following the Sand-Eater battle, as the city struggles to cope with upheaval. Each issue follows a different character. This month features Marcus’ precocious young charge Yan, as he is sent to work for Artisian Neelan — but discovers a side to life, and perhaps himself, that he never dreamed existed.

As for the Apocalyptic Edition, well, I’ve talked about this several times already. It collects the first thirteen issues in their entirety, including the Walking the Dust text pieces and Ben Templesmith’s original covers.

Suffice to say that the production values are gorgeous, the new art for Walking The Dust is amazing, the colour cover gallery is awesome, and we all couldn’t be happier with how it’s turned out. We knew going in that only the serious fans are going to pick up a hardback, so we worked around the clock to make sure it’s worth every penny.

The Diamond code for the Apocalyptic Edition, Vol. 1 is MAY090998, and the ISBN is 978-1934964194.
