Few video games have enjoyed such a frenetic buzz around their release as the upcoming Hellgate: London, and with good reason-they haven't had the awesome talent of former Diablo developers and executives working on an inaugural release! Now together as Flagship Studios, these formidable creative minds have developed a groundbreaking game that's guaranteed to become another best-selling franchise. Ian Edginton, the critically acclaimed author of Scarlet Traces and the recent War of the Worlds webcomic adaptation, teams with Superman and Preacher artist Steve Pugh to explore this demon-ravaged metropolis in comics form. Hellgate fans will eat up the realistic flavor that both UK creators bring to the work, and Flagship has had hands-on approval every step of the way. MI5 agent Lyra Darius discovers a human charnel house in the heart of London while tailing Lord Sumerisle, the recently resigned Home Office Minister for Internal Affairs. She's soon entangled in a bloody intrigue with Knights Templar, and everything is building up to All Hallows Eve! ? This series leads up to the game's highly anticipated release.

With a breathtaking series of acrobatics, the rescue is done...right before the army commandante's disbelieving eyes. But Zorro's thrill of victory is broken, then shattered...first by the Indian's bitter ingratitude, and then by a fiery tragedy. Zorro will discover that the Indian he freed is Moonstalker -- the merciless champion of his people. And that the fiery tragedy has inspired the creation of the provocative, deadly Lady Rawhide - a whip-wielding woman who is determined to see Zorro dead. Synopsis of Zorro (1993 Topps) #3: "Men Aren't the Only Ones With Dual Identities" - Who is Lady Rawhide?

The answers to those questions...and more...are here in the most surprising Zorro adventure yet. Wait'll you see the steamy bedroom scene between Zorro and Lady Rawhide! Capitan Monasterio is not just levying new taxes - he's brutally extorting outrageous quantities of money and valuables from everyone in and around Los Angeles. In order to discover the reason behind Monasterio's sudden, seemingly arbitrary actions, Zorro is forced to undertake extraordinary risks. Too late, Zorro discovers that these risks have fatally made him the vulnerable prey to the new, merciless, night-stalking interloper who calls herself Lady Rawhide. A soul-wrenching tragedy has set Lady Rawhide on an implacable quest for vengeance...and it looks like Zorro will be her first victim.
