Wildguard Returns This May!

This is an official Image Comics press release:

4 March 2008 (Berkeley, CA) - The original reality-TV heroes make their triumphant return in WILDGUARD: INSIDER, a three-issue mini-series courtesy of FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN illustrator and WILDGUARD creator Todd Nauck.

"As much fun as playing in Marvel and DC's sandboxes can be, I've been very eager to get back to my own toys," said Nauck. "While I've had a great time with the website strips, this is a return to WILDGUARD at their absolute best - down on the printed page. It's really fun to be back at it."

WILDGUARD: INSIDER features all-new stories continuing the adventures of characters such as Red Rover while also containing the never before collected internet strips! In addition, the back matter will be packed with more of the fan-favorite "Where Are They Now?" features and mini-fact files expanding the WILDGUARD universe.

WILDGUARD: INSIDER #1 of 3 (MAR082068), a full color 32-page mini-series for $3.50, will be available in stores May 14th, 2008.

Image is trying to relaunch their superhero line, I think. I was never very impressed with it, though I have received several advance issues of the new installments and have been quite pleased with what I have read. My problem is that they have no coherent Universe in which these titles take place; every title exists in and of itself, for the most part. I'll discuss this more in the future, as I haven't been into Image Comics in several years and I could be wrong, so Iwant to know more about what I am saying before I start saying it!
