Shift to relaunch Empire!


 






















The publishers of the British comic Shift have announced the publication of collection of Empire a long neglected series originally started by the short lived Gorilla Comics way back in 2000 and then taken up and issued as a six issue miniseries (with the two Gorilla editions published as double sized #0) by DC Comics in 2003/4.

IDW also produced a four issue mini series Empire Uprising in 2015
























Their announcement indicates  their edition will be 180 plus pages. The collected DC edition was 208 pages though I would guess that included covers for the mini-series which would be unnecessary in this edition.

The story is about a warlord called Golgoth who has taken over most of the world. Greenland remains free but for how long? I collected both the original and DC versions and would highly recommend this to anyone who has not read it.

Shift will also be publishing a new instalment of the story by Mark Waid and Barry Kitson next year.
