X Volume 4: Better Off Dead

Description

Now on to the fourth volume in this hugely popular revival, Duane Swierczynski brings his formidable storytelling skills to the fore once again. A no-holds-barred action thriller, this is a swift return to the very best of the series' issues from the classic era, given a huge boost by a new story and dozens of gory set-pieces. This is extreme anti-super-heroism like you've never seen before!

Duane Swierczynski is the author of several crime thrillers, including the the Shamus Award-winning Fun and Games, the first in the Charlie Hardie series published by Mulholland Books, as well as the Edgar-nominated and Anthony Award-winning Expiration Date. Many of these books are currently in development for film and TV. He currently writes the IDW series Judge Dredd, the Valiant Comics series Bloodshot, the Dark Horse series X, and has written about the Punisher, Birds of Prey, Godzilla, Cable, The Immortal Iron Fist, Werewolf By Night, Black Widow, and Deadpool. In a previous life, Duane was the editor-in-chief of The Philadelphia City Paper, and has worked as an editor and writer at Men's Health, Details, and Philadelphia magazines.
