Ram V: Black Tower: The Raven Conspiracy, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Occult warfare was only a world-war-era fantasy, having since been declared dead and debunked... at least that's what they'd like you to think. DC's Vertigo revival continues with a fantasy spy thriller from Ram V and Mike Perkins!

Twenty-three-year-old Darren Burroughs out of Audubon, PA is a "gifted" rookie sent under the guise of a diplomatic aide to train with Division Nine---an obscure, outdated, and easily dismissed arm of British intelligence who specialize in dealing with paranormal incidents. In the right sort of spy-circles they're known by a different, more feared name...Black Tower.

It's 2026, and in the age of cyber-warfare and drone-strikes, someone is plotting to steal the head of a giant-king to break a centuries-old ward that has kept invading forces out of Britain. Magic and espionage collide as the Black Tower's band of misfits, led by the enigmatic Alistair Romeo, delve into a maelstrom of spells and silencers, working against time and in the shadows to fight the esoteric battles bubbling under the surface of our visible wars.

The Swamp Thing team of Eisner Award winner Ram V (Detective Comics, The Many Deaths of Laila Starr ) and acclaimed artist Mike Perkins (The Swamp Thing, The Bat-Man: First Knight ) team up once again to bring you a contemporary spy-thriller with the distinct flavor of Vertigo magic... from His Majesty with love.
