San Diego Debut: Any Empire by Nate Powell
Debuting at San Diego Comic Con…
Title: Any Empire
Creators: Nate Powell
Publisher: Top Shelf
Available: Booth #1721
High concept: A vivid examination of war and violence, and their trickle-down effects on middle America. First, a group of small-town kids find themselves bound together by geography, boredom, and a string of mysterious turtle mutilations. Years later, with Army tanks rolling through the streets of their hometown, these young adults are forced to confront painful questions of privilege, duty, betrayal, and courage. Any Empire recalls aimless summers of Nancy Drew and GI Joe, treehouses and army surplus stores… but when fantasy starts to bleed into reality, whose mission will be accomplished?
