"Shoot," Warren Ellis's much-talked about, but never published story, involving schoolyard killings leads this mega-sized VERTIGO RESURRECTION Special. Also included are rarely seen tales exploring the disturbing depths of horror, war, romance and science fiction by Brian Azzarello, Brian Bolland, Garth Ennis, Grant Morrison, Jim Lee, Peter Milligan, Bill Willingham, Bernie Wrighston and more!
"Shoot" is the selling point of "Vertigo Resurrected" #1, never before published and never seen in color at all, and, together with a slew of shorts, it definitely makes this book worthwhile and of interest. There's a little bit for everyone here. Plus, given the rarity of most of these stories, they may be reprints but, to many, they may as well be brand new. With Vertigo's large back catalogue of anthology series and hard-to-find minis, I definitely want to see more of "Vertigo Resurrected." Read Full Review
