The Stand: Captain Trips #3
Now Available In Stores and
Online!
Following its two red hot debut issues,
The Stand: Captain Trips #3
(of 5) hit shelves today! Acclaimed writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa
(Secret Invasion: Fantastic Four, Angel: Revelations) along with
Eisner-nominated artist, Mike Perkins (Captain America, House of
M: Avengers) continue to bring new life to what is commonly
deemed King's most popular novel. As the superflu known as
"Captain Trips" continues to spread across America, the lives of
poor souls such as Larry Underwood and Frannie Goldsmith can't
help but be affected by it. And as the media begins to catch
wind of rumors about chemical warfare and bubonic plague, the
actions of the American government begin to devolve, local and
global legal systems start to deteriorate, and two wild and
crazy outlaws--Lloyd Henreid and Poke Freeman--decide to take
advantage of the situation, wreaking a path of destruction
through the American southwest! It's murder and mayhem, Stephen
King-style, in the next chapter of the epic struggle between
good and evil! Plus, a stunningly visceral regular cover and
sketch variant cover from acclaimed artist Lee Bermejo and the
third of five connecting variant covers from Perkins - this is a
must for any King fan! Don't miss one of the year's most
acclaimed new series, wowing fans and critics alike!
"In the end, 'The Stand: Captain Trips', is effective on just
about every level.The relationship between Stephen King and
Marvel has already resulted in two gems, so I say keep them
coming."
- Daniel Crown of IGN.com
"All in all, this is a beautiful book that's further accented by
Laura Martin's brilliant coloring.I highly recommend it to just
about anyone looking to dip their feet into Stephen King's
world."
- J. Montes of TheWeeklyComicBookReview.com
As the remaining survivors decide to take sides between the
forces of good and evil, the beginning of the end of the world
is on the horizon. Don't miss
The Stand: Captain Trips #3
(of 5), on-sale now!
