ECHOLANDS - VOL. 1

The story of Earth's last war starts with
Hope's sticky fingers...

The multiple
award-winning Batwoman team, J. H. WILLIAMS III (Promethea, The Sandman:
Overture, Batman) and W. HADEN BLACKMAN (Star Wars, Elektra), reunites for an
all-new ongoing series! They're joined once again by colorist supreme DAVE
STEWART and master letterer TODD KLEIN.

In a
bizarre future world that has forgotten its history, a reckless thief, Hope
Redhood, holds the key to excavating its dark, strange past-if only she
and her crew can escape a tyrannical wizard and his unstoppable daughter. But
fate will send them all on a path leading to a war between worlds.


ECHOLANDS is a landscape format,
mythic-fiction epic where anything is possible-a fast-paced genre mashup
adventure that combines everything from horror movie vampires to classic
mobsters and cyborg elves, to Roman demigods and retro rocket ships. It's
going to be a helluva ride!


Early praise for
ECHOLANDS:


"It's every fictional
world, each with its own artistic style, intersecting and exploding with JHW3
magic and crackle. I can't wait to see where he and Haden Blackman are taking
us-into a world in which anything can happen, and undoubtedly will."
-Neil Gaiman

"So complex and unique and
expertly executed it pushes the medium forward in new directions and leads to
invigorated interest in the medium of comics itself." -Robert
Kirkman

"A dazzling, kinetic ride through an
exquisitely realized fantasy world, bursting with graphic energy and
excitement." -Dave
Gibbons

"Echolands' fallen fantasy
San Francisco is painted as a monstrous blend of magic and technology, and reads
like a blockbuster car chase." -Kyle Shutt (The
Sword)

"Getting an eyeful is a massive
understatement. I love looking at the drawings as they expand with more details
emerging every time I look." -Debbie Harry (Blondie, Face It: A
Memoir)
