| Hi everyone, and welcome to a sneak peek at the all-new BERGER BOOKS! As the founding editor of Vertigo, I’m so excited to be back in comics in a big way and couldn’t be happier about setting up shop with the very fine crew at Dark Horse. Stories that are smart, sensational, and a bit strange have always been my passion — and I’m thrilled to present you with a quick look at our launch titles debuting in early 2018. Come experience weird realities, true fictions, dark secrets, and monsters of a different kind. I am so lucky to be working with these fantastic and fearless storytellers… and I can’t wait to hear what you think. Karen Berger @karenpberger Hungry Ghosts International chefs tell terrifying tales of ghosts, demons and unspeakable beings all tainted with the common thread of food, as they play the daring samurai game of Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai or 100 Candles, and pray that they survive the challenge. Cooked up by Anthony Bourdain (Kitchen Confidential, Emmy-Award winning TV star of Parts Unknown), reunited with Get Jiro! writer Joel Rose (La Pacifica, Kill, Kill, Faster, Faster!). Art by Alberto Ponticelli, Vanesa Del Rey, Paul Pope, Mateus Santolouco, and Leonardo Manco with color by José Villarrubia. Incognegro: A Graphic Mystery In this new, enhanced 10th Anniversary Edition of the acclaimed graphic novel, Zane Pinchback goes undercover as a white man in pre-Civil Rights rural Mississippi, where he thwarts lynch mobs to save his brother, charged with the brutal murder of a white woman. By Mat Johnson (Loving Day, Pym) and Warren Pleece (The Invisibles, Life Sucks). Incognegro: Renaissance Cub reporter Zane Pinchback goes “incognegro” for the first time in 1920s Harlem, passing as white to investigate the suspicious death of a black author. A page-turning mystery of racial divide, this series precedes the events of the above graphic novel, beautifully executed by the same creative team. Mata Hari The unseen side of the notorious exotic dancer and convicted double agent who was executed by a French firing squad in 1917 is explored in this haunting and gripping telling. By Emma Beeby (Judge Dredd) and Ariela Kristantina (Insexts) with color by Pat Masioni. The Seeds Girl meets alien meets journalist in this eco-thriller love story where fact-based reporting is gasping its last breath and Mother Nature already has other plans. And what’s with the bees?? By Ann Nocenti (Daredevil, Catwoman) and David Aja (Hawkeye, Immortal Iron Fist). The Originals: The Essential Edition An oversized new edition of Vertigo’s Eisner Award-winning graphic novel from comics legend Dave Gibbons. In this retro-futuristic city, two childhood friends join the toughest and most stylish gang around, but their dreams are dashed when deadly violence changes everyone’s lives. Featuring 32 pages of previously unpublished additional material. |
