Pop & Superheroics Meet in Velocity Pilot Season #1!
Top Cow Productions proudly announces the third of six “pilot issues” as Velocity: Pilot Season #1. Pilot Season 2007 is a series of six self-contained one-shot specials, each featuring a different established Top Cow character currently without a regular series. After all six issues are released fans will be given the opportunity to vote online to determine which two characters receive a series in 2008.
“We're trying to bring a different flavor to Top Cow and Velocity is the perfect character for it. Working with Maguire is always a blast and we hope that all the Velocity/Cyberforce fans get a kick out of what we've done. Rock the vote!” explained writer Joe Casey.
"Joe Casey is a writer who is constantly reinventing his approach to the medium of comics so he was a natural choice for a new take on Velocity," commented Filip Sablik, VP of Marketing & Sales for Top Cow. "And Kevin Maguire’s mastery of facial expressions only sweetens the pot for fans. Casey and Maguire jammin’ pop and superheroics, just another way we’re rockin’ the boat with Pilot Season."
Velocity Pilot Season #1 is a 32 page full color comic with a suggested retail price of $2.99.

"Fundamentals of Fear x153: The Enemy Within" pt. 6
(W) Hugh Sterbakov (P) Will Conrad (Col) Blond (Cov) Conrad, Migliari
The team is torn apart by jealousy, and the distraction is just enough to allow a new, deadly threat to rise from the ashes of a fallen enemy. The result will be catastrophic—nothing will ever be the same again (really!) as the non-stop "Fundamentals of Fear" careens toward its jaw-dropping conclusion. We're serious! In fact, tape your jaw up before you even pick this book up, or we won't be responsible!
Co-created by the self-deprecating Seth Green and written by the star of BUFFY, AUSTIN POWERS, ROBOT CHICKEN and Seth's dreams, Hugh Sterbakov!
