Both darkly comic and just plain dark  Rick Veitchs Bratpack has been considered a must-read almost since the release of its first issue in 1990. Now  fifteen years after its last printing  its back in a new hardcover edition.  Welcome to Slumburg  Pennsylvania  where the superpowered team called Black October is as bad as the villains they bring in. Now they want to train a new generation to follow in their footsteps. First  though  theyll need to find some new recruits  as they suddenly find themselves facing a distinct shortage of sidekicks.  Subversively subtle yet completely over the top  Bratpack is uncompromising  uncomfortable  and unforgettable. Its also an essential for every graphic novel collection. This black and white hardcover edition includes Neil Gaimans introduction  as well as a new essay by Rick  extra art  and the original 23-page series proposal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67909450104885,"sku":"ByrdShop_1684053269","price":347.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781684053261.jpg?v=1794033699","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/rich-veitchs-bratpack-9781684053261","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
