Dark Horse, News on the Quick: Noted crime-fiction writer and children's rights advocate Andrew Vachss (FLOOD, DOWN IN THE ZERO, BATMAN: THE ULTIMATE EVIL) has teamed with novelist James Colbert to produce a new novel called CROSS: GENESIS. Dark Horse Comics will adapt this novel into a seven-issue comic miniseries, beginning in October ... "What makes this project unique," said editor Randy Stradley, "is that we are adapting this novel to comics before its general publication."
CROSS is an unflinching look at hard truths... Vachss and Colbert show what it takes to create a "family" of killers--and the kinds of bonds that hold such a family together.
