Description

Featuring the show-stopping talents of Spawn series artist JASON SHAWN ALEXANDER, and the writer behind such hit shows as Wu-Tang: An American Saga, Marvel's Runaways, and Starz's American Gods--RODNEY BARNES.

When a small town beat cop comes home to bury his murdered father-the revered Philadelphia detective James Sangster Sr.-he begins to unravel a mystery that leads him down a path of horrors and shakes his beliefs to their core.

The city that was once the symbol of liberty and freedom has fallen prey to corruption, poverty, unemployment, brutality...
...and vampires.

But the mystery goes even further when Jimmy's investigation leads him to uncover the source of the outbreak is long-thought dead President of the United States John Adams--a man secretly biding his time as he builds an undead army to start a new and bloodier American revolution.

There's a reason they coin a phrase, "you can't go home." Welcome to Killadelphia.

Reviews
"Barnes has recrafted vampire lore in the most refreshing way. The engaging story and brilliant illustration make for delicious theater of the mind." -Kimberly Latrice Jones, author/activist

"It's the best graphic novel I've ever read. Five times more graphic and eight times more novel." -Chris Rock

"Killadelphia speaks to race, class, culture and vampires. All things that lead to a captivating story. What isn't there to love!!!" -Michael Strahan

"Sparely written, beautifully rendered and topical, Killadelphia is a genuinely frightening horror graphic. Can't wait to read the next issue!" -Steven Barnes & Tananarive Due

"This smart, stylish thrill ride runs on enough social relevance to appeal to an audience outside of gore hounds." i?9;Publishers Weekly

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
