Praise for THE WILD STORM: “In many ways, the Superhero Boom began with Ellis and Wildstorm.”–Vulture“THE WILD STORM doesn’t read like any Wildstorm comic that’s come before… it’s a sci-fi-flavored espionage book, one that takes a handful of familiar faces, remixes them and generally re-imagines the Wildstorm Universe to suit a more contemporary and jaded audience.” –IGN“The story is just told with scalpel-like precision and that’s something of a hallmark for a good Ellis tale.” –Newsarama“Warren Ellis is arguably the comic industry’s greatest living science-fiction writer…. With its lethal, quippy protagonist, corporate espionage set-up, and well, robots, THE WILD STORM is a fine gateway drug into the Ellis oeuvre.” –Paste Magazine“One of the most exciting superhero projects of this year” –A.V.
