A MAJOR IMAGE COMICS 2021 EVENT. The story of Earth's last war starts with Hope's sticky fingers… The multiple award winning BATWOMAN team JH Williams III (Promethea, The Sandman: Overture, Batman) and W. Haden Blackman (Star Wars, Elektra) reunite for an all-new ongoing series! They're joined once again by colorist supreme Dave Stewart and master letterer Todd Klein. In a bizarre future world that has forgotten its history, a reckless thief Hope Redhood holds the key to excavating its dark strange past - if only she and her crew can escape a tyrannical wizard and his unstoppable daughter. But fate will send them all on a path leading to a war between worlds. ECHOLANDS is a landscape format mythic fiction epic where anything is possible; a fast-paced genre mashup adventure that combines everything from horror movie vampires to classic mobsters and cyborg elves, to Roman demigods and retro rocket ships. It's going to be a helluva ride! Each issue of the series will offer a Raw Cut edition, featuring the art from J H Williams III as it looked leaving his work studio.

Reviews

Well, in a time when DC is attempting to resurrect the anthology format and the back-up story, this insanely upscale Tijuana Bible format was probably inevitable. The art by J.H. (Promethea) Williams is making the most of the unusual layout. Filled with a plethora of "I think that might be..." type cameos, some of the pages certainly have a Where's Waldo if it were published by Vertigo vibe. It's a striking book, even if the story has a lot to do to keep up with the art.
Highly recommended for fans of the pretty parts of Promethea, fans of Near Gaiman, and anybody who gets their trigger tripped by a strange format.
