• BLOG AT NEWSARAMA on NORTHLANDERS (News - Posted April 14, 2009)

  Some Thoughts on NORTHLANDERS The train brings me strange thoughts sometimes. Today, reading something academic and completely unrelated to Vikings, violence, conquest or comics, I started thinking about the NORTHLANDERS arc that just wrapped up, The Cross + The Hammer. Since each arc on this book has been drawn by a different artist, I've taken to referring to...

• Brian Wood/Northlanders in the Portland Mercury (News - Posted September 24, 2009)

  Well, longer than "lately." For the past decade, Wood's been cranking out some of the most noteworthy and varied comics out there, like the indie hits Demo and Local (illustrated by Becky Cloonan and Ryan Kelly, respectively); the sci-fi adventure Supermarket (illustrated by Kristian Donaldson); and the Manhattan-is-a-warzone thriller DMZ (which is illustrated by Riccardo Burchielli) which just saw its seventh trade paperback collection hit bookstores a few weeks...

  Written by Brian Wood; Art and cover by Becky Cloonan

And here's the first of 6 brand-new, single-issue, done-in-one stories from Brian Wood (DMZ, NORTHLANDERS) and Becky Cloonan (AMERICAN VIRGIN, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), each one just as powerful and emotionally charged as the original run.

• DEMO (Graphic Novel - Softcover)

  

  Written by Brian Wood; Art and Cover by Becky Cloonan

  ★ "DEMO altogether is less reminiscent of other comics series than of a thematic rather than continuous-narrative novel, such as John Horne Burns' The Gallery (1947). High praise, maybe, but deserving."—BOOKLIST The Eisner-nominated and critically acclaimed series of self-contained short stories by writer Brian Wood (DMZ, NORTHLANDERS) and artist Becky Cloonan (AMERICAN VIRGIN) arrives in a new edition. Twelve stories of conflicted teens grappling with...

• DMZ #41 (Comic - On Sale April 15, 2009)

  

  Written by Brian Wood; Art by Nikki Cook; Cover by John Paul Leon

  Having rejected the relative safety and stability of Parco Delgado's government enclave (as well as a relationship with Matty Roth), Zee ventures out into the wilds of the DMZ. What is she seeking? Peace of mind? A greater truth? Or does she see Parco for what he truly is and would rather be alone and drifting than a part of...

• DMZ #44 (Comic - On Sale August 12, 2009)

  

  Written by Brian Wood; Art by Ryan Kelly; Cover by John Paul Leon

  The conclusion of "No Future" sees our nameless hero sent out on a mission he has no plans to return from. But is that by design of his masters – or initiative on his own part? Let out in daylight for the first time in years, he sees aspects of the DMZ that tweak his long-repressed conscience, and he's forced to make an impossible...

• DMZ #45 (Comic - On Sale September 09, 2009)

  

  Written by Brian Wood; Art by Riccardo Burchielli; Cover by John Paul Leon

  "Hearts and Minds" part 1 of 5. Following the tumultuous events of the past year, Matty Roth is redefining his role in the DMZ. No longer content to be merely a citizen journalist or a mouthpiece for Parco Delgado's struggling city government, he now rolls with his own private security force and self-defined mandate to heal the city. Is this the start of a brand-new day via the barrel of an gun – or will this "Rise of Matty" end with the fall of just another petty...

  "Hearts and Minds" Part 2 of 5! The world struggles to come to grips with Parco Delgado's nuclear revelation, and while he's shooting hoops and avoiding the press, Matty is out there forging new alliances and advancing his own agenda.

  "Hearts and Minds" part 3 of 5! The past comes back to haunt Matty in the form of both family and friends. To blow off some steam, he goes after a Trustwell sleeper cell.

• DMZ #48 (Comic - On Sale December 09, 2009)

  

  Written by Brian Wood; Art by Riccardo Burchielli; Cover by John Paul Leon

  "Hearts and Minds" part 4 of 5! The USA, in the name of global stability, is abandoning all manner of negotiation, peace talks, ceasefires and diplomacy and moving forward unilaterally in its goal of a nuclear-free Manhattan. But surely this was an eventuality that Parco Delgado saw coming a mile off, right? Hey, where is Parco, anyway? And in the middle of the violence, Zee and Matty...
