Eisner-nominated writer Joshua Dysart (UNKNOWN SOLDIER) combines his powers with Eisner-winning comic artist David Lapham (STRAY BULLETS), Eisner winner Bill Sienkiewicz (NEW MUTANTS), Eisner-nominated colorist Bill Crabtree (INVINCIBLE) and Eisner winning colorist Matt Hollingsworth (BATMAN) to present a groundbreaking horror tour-deforce. Mercurial billionaire Tuttle Barrows prepared for everything—even the end of the world. Years ago he wielded his immense power and fortune to build a massive sealed habitat atop a once protected ancient freshwater glacial cave. Now, as the world outside unravels, Barrows, his family, and a handpicked inner circle retreat to their final sanctuary—a place built to outlast civilization itself. But something was already there. Beneath layers of ice, in the ancient freshwater vault, a long-dormant danger lurks. While hallucinations twist their reality and violence spreads like a fever they must descend deeper or risk their last refuge becoming a tomb.

"On their own, Matt Kindt and David Lapham are two of comics' greatest auteurs; together they are an unstoppable super team and THE HERO TRADE proves it!" -Jeff Lemire, Eisner Award-Winning Writer/Artist of BLACK HAMMER "A beautiful collage of stories. Each evokes its own images, but when you finally step back to see the bigger picture, it's stunning." -Mark Waid, Eisner Award-Winning Writer of KINGDOM COME "Visceral and addictive. THE HERO TRADE takes body horror to the superhero genre like a parasite. What feels at the start like something Kindt and Lapham concocted on a dare soon becomes more complex and nuanced than it has any right to be." -Eric Heisserer, Academy Award-Nominated Writer of ARRIVAL Described as superheroes through the lens of Elmore Leonard & Quentin Tarantino, this uberhip, groundbreaking series of tour de force stories from New York Times best-selling author Matt Kindt (BRZRKR) and iconoclastic illustrator David Lapham (STRAY BULLETS) is now being made widely available for the very first time. This meticulously curated collection contains over 200 pages of THE HERO TRADE saga featuring a batch of brand-new stories including THE HERO TRADE 2, BOOTLEG, LIVE OR DIE, and the monumental two-part crossover event with HANK HOWARD, PIZZA DETECTIVE, as well as a wealth of bonus material and behind-the-scenes content exclusive to this edition. The seemingly straightforward tale of a man with the body of a superhero in the trunk of his car, driving from one nefarious organization to another and selling it piece by piece. An ordinary man at the end of his rope, this score is his last shot, one night to make good. He's bound and determined to carve out a place for himself in this world, even if he has to do it one bloody body part of Captain Fab at a time. His black market buyers all looking for a piece of the superpowered action, to own a piece of the paragon. To collect it. To touch it. Even taste it. Because eating even a tiny piece of The Fab? Grants you unbelievable powers. Ingest a drop of Captain Fab's blood? Develop a miraculous healing factor. Feast on an eyeball, snort some teeth dust, dine fabulously and take the ride… although the powers you get may not be what you expected.

What lurking evil lies hidden at the end of the cul-de-sac? Nestled in a tucked-away corner of sleepy suburbia, the Kingsley, Herriman and Ortega families seemed like any other close-knit neighbors. So nothing seems amiss when Mrs. Kingsley piles all the neighborhood kids into the family RV for their annual summer camp-out. But in the dark of the woods, she unleashes a grisly, bloodcurdling display, revealing their families' shocking secret—their parents are vampires and they're eager to pass on their legacy. Now the children must choose—to join them and revel in their awesome dark powers or live out their lives as mortals. But when they return home, they confront a gruesome scene—their parents dead on the floor, brutally murdered by an elite squad of vampire hunters. And the hunters? They're looking to finish the job. Now the kids are on the run, chased by vampire hunters, the police, and even a shadowy cabal of their fellow vampires as they search for answers to unlock the secret of what they really are before their fates are sealed forever.
