Death-Defying Dr. Mirage: Second Lives Details And Preview

Published Fri, 04 Sep 2015 20:00:59 -0500

Valiant has released the details and art to go with the announced The Death-Defying Dr. Mirage: Second Lives series from Jen Van Meter and Roberto de la Torre.

Occult investigators Shan and Hwen Mirage lived their lives in the thrall of an epic love that few will ever have…until Hwen died tragically before his time. Now, after a perilous trip through the underworld, Shan and Hwen have been reunited…but Hwen is still an intangible spirit of the dead – incapable of opening a spell-book or even touching his wife.

Their options exhausted, the death-defying Doctors Mirage are about to enact a dangerous spell to restore Hwen's solid form…and grant his ghost a second life. But, in the wrong hands, their ancient rite will become a tool of terror – and unleash a force of pure, homicidal evil that lusts for the murder of the living and the dead alike… a torturous death that obliterates not just everything a person ever had in this world, but everything their ghost will be in the next!

The series kicks off this December featuring covers by Jelena Kevic-Djurdjevic (Thor), Kevin Wada (She-Hulk), Roberto de la Torre (Age of Apocalypse), Khari Evans (Harbingers), and Katie Skelly (Nurse Nurse) – and an exclusive Valiant Linewide Variant by Eisner Award-winning artist Colleen Coover (Bandette)!

The first in a new series of variant covers for high-profile new releases, retailers can qualify for the initial Valiant Linewide Variant offering based on their aggregate orders of Valiant titles shipping for December 2015. For every 100 copies of Valiant titles placed during the Initial Order period, retailers may then order one The Death-Defying Dr. Mirage: Second Lives #1 Valiant Linewide Variant.
