*MASSIVE 84 PAGE GRAPHIC NOVEL PRICED AT WHAT OTHERS CHARGE FOR 48 pages!*
Hello readers and fans of great comics! My name is Aaron Lopresti and I am a 30-year veteran of the comic book industry. You may know me from my work on Marvel's PLANET HULK, X-MEN and MS. MARVEL or DC Comics' WONDER WOMAN and JUSTICE LEAGUE. Last year I launched my own comic publishing label with the surprise hit, WRAITH OF GOD! This critically acclaimed graphic novel quickly sold out, but now we at Empire Comics are offering an exclusive 2nd printing with an all new cover! I am committed to bringing you the very best in comic book entertainment and I guarantee you won't be disappointed with WRAITH OF GOD!

THE STORY:
In the American west of 1883, the WRAITH is a mysterious hero with a dark past who is relentlessly driven to administer the wrath of God on the evil supernatural forces that contaminate the land. A master of illusion and disguise, the Wraith is aided by a former Salvation Army worker named Esther who frequently finds herself at odds with her mentor . It's a race against time and death as together they try to stop a pack of werewolves from obtaining a mystical amulet that will make them invincible. (84 pages, full color)
