      The surreal superhero epic penned by Peter Milligan is back in print, now collected in omnibus format for the first time! Along with fellow classics like The Sandman, Animal Man, and Hellblazer, Shade, the Changing Man--a subversive reinvention of a character created by comics legend Steve Ditko--helped usher in the era of DC's Vertigo imprint, populated by stories with a distinctly mature sensibility and fearless creative vision. Now, Shade, the Changing Man--written by acclaimed scribe Peter Milligan and with art by Chris Bachalo, Mark Pennington, and more--is collected in the omnibus format! Shade, the Changing Man starts with Kathy George's encounter with Shade's arrival on Earth from his home dimension of Meta--in the body of her parents' killer. From there, Shade and Kathy journey into America's collective unconscious to find the evil known only as The American Scream. From there, it's a mind-bending journey into the heartland of a nation, in the most celebrated work of Milligan's prolific career! Collects Shade, The Changing Man #1-50; Who's Who #7 and #15, and a story from Vertigo Jam #1; Vertigo Gallery: Dreams and Nightmares #1, along with a brand-new introduction by Peter Milligan.

      How deep must you bury a body to make sure it doesn't haunt you? Frank and Terry are about to find out. They were once members of The Dogs, a feared gang who ruled much of London's underworld back in the swinging 60s. They thought they'd escaped their troubled pasts, but the past isn't dead - it's just bashed about a bit and very pissed off. Spanning different times and classes, DOGS OF LONDON is a brutal, bloody tale of violence, love, revenge...and sleeping dogs who refuse to roll over and play dead. Written by Peter Milligan (X-Force, Hellblazer) and brought to bloody life by Artecida, the Dogs have awoken, and they seek more than mere revenge.

      "A terrifying new quest into the unknown! The Roman standard - the eagle borne at the front of each Roman legion - was more than just a symbol of the soldiers that carried it... It was a symbol of Rome itself, the ultimate embodiment of the empire's power... But now, in the mist-shrouded Germanic forest of Tottenwald, the unthinkable has happened: A rampaging barbarian horde has crushed three of Rome's most highly skilled detachments in battle... and captured their mighty Roman eagles. His authority threatened by this all-too-public shame, the mad emperor Nero has dispatched Antonius Axia, the empire's finest "detectioner" and hero of Britannia, and Achillia, the sword-wielding champion of the gladiatorial arena, to reclaim his stolen relics at any cost. But what began as a simple mission will soon become a terrifying journey into the dark heart of belief itself as the isolated woodlands of Rome's enemies reveal unseen dimensions...and the true power of the legion's lost eagles threatens to consume any who would pursue them... Valiant's sold-out descent into the horrors of the ancient world returns with an all-new volume from legendary comics master Peter Milligan (Detective Comics) and Harvey Award-nominated artist Robert Gill (BOOK OF DEATH) as Antonius Axia, history's first detective, launches into an otherworldly mystery of monsters, magic, and conspiracy at the boundaries of human understanding."--Publisher's description
