cover by richard corben brian azzarello (W)/richard corben (p) • THE SCOOP: Brian Azzarello and Richard Corben unlock Cage! • THE SET-UP: Life on the streets is a high stakes game. There are winners and losers. Those that play by the rules, do so at their own risk, and often pay a price. Who's got their back? There's a man who can set things straight. A specialist. He doesn't come cheap, but if you've got the bank, he's got game. And plenty of it. Some know him as a "Hero for Hire." Some as a "Power Man." For others, he's an urban legend. He's all — and none — of the above. His name is Cage. It's time you got to know him. • THE STORY: Dory Dickens wants justice for her daughter, cut down in her prime in the crossfire of a rapidly escalating gang war. In a sea of corrupt cops and rival gangbangers, there's only one man with the juice to dispense the kind of street justice Dory craves — and his services don't come cheap. Lucky for Dory, the man called Cage has plenty of reason to play hero in a world where there are none. • THE CREATORS: The team behind BANNER, writer Brian Azzarello (100 Bullets) and artist Richard Corben (House on the Borderland), unite once again to knock fandom on its collective butt! • THE EDITOR SPEAKS: “It's gonna have the pacing and rhythm of your favorite blaxploitation flicks from the '70s, only it'll be in a more modern context,” Axel Alonso told Wizard. “Part and parcel of that is cussing and big booties, guns and drugs and all the rest.” • THE FORMAT: Each issue of this monthly, five-part mini-series will be 32 pages, with ads. • THE RATING: Contains explicit content. Recommended for adult readers.
