and executioner who the papers call “The X-Killer.” He
has set the new rules for Arcadia. Cross the line once,

Gerard Way, of My Chemical Romance, makes his comics writing debut in this outrageous
superhero epic that Grant Morrison called “An ultraviolet psychedelic sherbet bomb of wit and
ideas. The superheroes of the 21st century are here at last . . . ”
In an inexplicable worldwide event, forty-seven extraordinary children were spontaneously born by
women who’d previously shown no signs of pregnancy. Millionaire inventor Reginald Hargreeves
adopted seven of the children; when asked why, his only explanation was, “To save the world.” These seven children form The Umbrella Academy, a dysfunctional family of superheroes with
bizarre powers. Their first adventure at the age of ten pits them against an erratic and deadly
Eiffel Tower, piloted by the fearsome zombie-robot Gustave Eiffel. Nearly a decade later, the
team disbands, but when Hargreeves unexpectedly dies, these disgruntled siblings reunite just
in time to save the world once again.

Dark Horse Comics is proud to present the first comprehensive omnibus collection of rapper/cartoonist Keith
Knight’s Harvey Award-winning, semi-autobiographical
comic strip, the K Chronicles. An unabashedly provocative mix of political and social satire, it tackles such touchy
subjects as racism, violence, and sex with a self-deprecating humor, personal honesty and light-hearted goofiness
rarely found in a newspaper comic. The result is accessible
yet subversive, compassionate and political, without being
preachy. Reminiscent of Calvin and Hobbes, Knight’s
drawing style is fluid and dynamic, and his great strength
is the deftness of his wide-ranging wit–simultaneously
light-hearted and wild, clever and conscious.

•“It’s hard to make a comic that is this funny while also
so frequently profound. Keith Knight deals with so
many issues with both gravitas and such a light touch,
while never missing a chance at a cheap laugh. This is
the work of a master.” —Dave Eggers A Heart-Breaking Work of Staggering Genius

Saya seems, from all appearances, to be an ordinary teenage girl suffering from amnesia. Living with a foster family just outside an American military base in Okinawa,
Japan, she soon discovers that she is anything but normal.
She learns she is an apparently immortal warrior, who has
ties dating to ancient Egyptian times if not earlier. For
centuries she has been locked in a battle against a race of
vampiric creatures known as Chiropterans, monsters that
seem intent on destroying all life on Earth.
In an epic tale that crisscrosses the globe from the streets
of Japan to Vietnam, Russia, France, England, and ultimately North Carolina and New York City, Saya battles
to save the world while searching for the secret of her
lost memories

A WIND NAMED AMNESIA/
invader summer
The Apocalypse didn’t end with a BANG, but with a
whimper. Silently, the “amnesia wind” swept away all of
mankind’s knowledge. Thousands of years of human
civilization vanished overnight as people forgot how to
use the tools of modern civilization; who they were, how
to speak, everything. Technology decayed as mankind
was reduced to an extremely primitive level. Two years
after the devastation, a young man explores a nation reduced to barbarism: America.
Miraculously re-educated after the cataclysm, he is accompanied by a young woman—somehow spared the
obliterating effects of the amnesia wind. Pursued by a
relentless killing machine, they search for those responsible for stealing their memories.

Saki Okuse and Sankichi Meguro. It tells the story of Misaki Saiki, a young woman with a troubled past, a professional dominatrix in one of Tokyo’s most exclusive S&M
clubs. However, her real money is something she likes
even less than being a dominatrix. Ever since childhood,
Misaki has had the ability to see and communicate with
ghosts, and that talent is put to use by the Livelihood Protection Agency, who has Misaki paired with Souichiro
Kadotake, a martial-artist who happens to be deathly afraid
of ghosts. Using her gifts, Misaki is able to help troubled
departed spirits to resolve what is troubling them and allow them to move on to the afterlife. If all THAT isn’t odd

The march continues as Japan’s future shogun moves to
the center of Japan to claim it as his own. But along the
way he’ll have to deal with intense and complicated politics, strange and sometimes perverted fighting techniques, and a rapidly changing samurai culture in old
Japan. And often the history of Japan all rests on the
wiles of shogun-to-be Ieyasu’s clever and loyal ninja,
Hattori Hanzo.
Lone Wolf & Cub creators Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima are experts at weaving an intense and sometimes
oddly sensational yarn, and this quasi-historical tale of a

Like sports, the victor is he who wants it more. Unlike
sports, the loser earns extinction.
Mankind has fought for survival over countless millennia, but nothing has threatened humanity’s existence like
the murderous Alien scourge. While some have tried to
use the creatures’ deadly abilities to serve their own selfish ends, no one can dance with the devil, and ultimately
only one species must prevail. To that end, men have
turned their own lethal instincts and cold intellect against
the monsters, creating engineered plagues, cybernetic
fighting suits, and even bogus android aliens, but survival rides not on technology, but on the primacy of the
most deep-rooted, feral instincts.

man has created, man can destroy, and so . . . the war for
the future begins today.

They came from another time to ensure that the future
would belong solely to the machines. They are Terminators—indestructible killing engines hiding inside shells
of flesh and blood. Tireless, fearless, merciless, unencumbered by human emotion, dedicated to the complete
eradication of mankind. But despite the frailty of human
flesh, nothing is as immortal as the human spirit, and
even the strongest metal will bend to the will of a mother
fighting for the future of her children. Dark Horse Comics has long been regarded as the heavyweight champion
of adapting film blockbusters to graphic fiction, and The
Terminator is one of the finest examples of bringing top
comics talents to the expansion of a premier action/adventure mythos.

Death often hides in the dark, isolated corners of the
earth—in thick woods, steaming swamps, or angry seas.
These natural dangers of animal, weather, and terrain often give rise to legends and folk tales of demons, serpents, and ghosts to put an understandable face to the
unknown. And while many myths have a basis in reality,
some are reality, the reality of the presence of Predators:
alien hunters as savage as they are intelligent, as cunning
as they are merciless. And when rational men stand face
to face with a sea serpent, a Gollywomp, or the New Jersey Devil bent on taking trophies, they have but two
choices—fight the myth or become history!
KEY SELLING POINTS:
•2004’s Alien vs. Predator film was #1 at the box office
